From Haiti 2 Palestine [Virtual] Teach In

VIRTUAL TEACH IN! SAVE THE DATE! On Sunday March 3rd we are co-hosting a teach in featuring speakers from @samidounseattle and @haitiaction to bring to light the dire situation in Haiti right now.

On February 29th, 2004 democratically elected president Jean Bertrand Aristide was kidnapped and flown out of Haiti and into exile by US forces. Since, the country has had an array of US backed governments that have resulted in the crisis Haitians are living today.

In October 2023, around the same time that the Pal3stinian resistance breached the wall in Gaza, the UN approved a US backed Kenyan led 12 month military mission to “bring peace” to Haiti. Yes, the UN approved to fly Kenyan soldiers to Haiti to bring “stability”.

There’s plenty that Haiti and Pal3stine have in common and we want to bring that to the fore during this teach in, especially during this important 20 year anniversary of the coup that took Aristide and the Fanmi Lavalas Party out of power.

The teach in will take place March 3rd over zoom from 11am – 12:30 pm pst. Please register at the link below! You will see the zoom information once you complete the short form 🙏🏽

We will start with a historical situationer for both Haiti and Palestine before listening to a discussion between organizers from Samidoun Prisoner Solidarity Network and the Haiti Action Committee. This teach in is intended to give you the context and information you need to help uplift the Haitian narrative and deepen your understanding about Palestine solidarity work.

See you there!
