Randall Robinson Kicks Butt concerning Haiti on Democracy Now

[magbana]

Today, March 20, Randall Robinson, founder of the Trans Africa Forum, activist, and author of a book on Haiti, appeared on Democracy Now. If you want to know how to counter misconceptions and lies concerning Haiti, Robinson is the master at it. In addition to the issue of deportation of Haitians, he also talks about the 2004 coup, Ban Ki-Moon and Bill Clinton trip to Haiti, and the usefulness of the UN peacekeeping force there.

The interview begins at the 40:23 mark. You could read the transcript, but he's sooo good on video.

1. He was tremendous. I think it was an interview of his on Charlie Rose

that helped me understand Haiti.

2. Yes, Robinson was on Charlie Rose maybe early last year and

was very good. If you haven't read his book on Haiti, I highly recommend it "Unbroken Agony." His website: http://www.randallrobinson.com/
