  1. The people who truly need asylum. But we know the U.S. government won't allow them in because of the color. If they were lighter and whiter, then it would change. Those people, the original Freedom Fighters, need help!

  2. Theres no gang, foreign invaders, whitemen, other countries or enemies in haiti. Just the people of haiti/its citizens. You been the first and longest free black Republic, left to your own accords as superior black kings and queens. That's why the world dont interfere. So u have no one to blame. Who can help? Other black nations, the crips gang your youth follow, and Haitian citizens abroad who can go back and fight for their country…( Ya more marcus Garvey than luther king, separatism, righttttt)

  3. As mainstream media reports on this, why not discuss who destabilized Haiti and shaping the narrative to convince us it’s the people there who are the problem. No there is a bigger gang that has caused these problems. Not buying it. Follow the money. Where are they getting all of these weapons from.

  4. Trust and believe Haitians do not want to be anywhere else but at their homeland. Even me, and I have been away from Haiti long enough. It was the quality of life. I am sure all the Island nations could say the same thing. When things are normal, nothing beats home!!!

  5. America could never risk wasting money on a country that’s only 200 miles off American coast seriously 😐 it’s just close fact is Americans only spend money on countries who spend funny crazy languages seriously 😳 and what would it look 👀 like American marines, killing our southern neighbors who are much darker than they are seriously how would you look?

  6. The only report that made me cry. Retired nurse I know the compassion…and the tiniest of them all cannot depend on anyone but this Angel👼 Rester en sécurité. Faire le travail de Dieu.💙💖

  7. You'd think they would have left the island already. But their courage is commendable. I am not sure i can have one tenth of their bravery and selflessness

  8. If you are a Haitian American, MAN, you should stay and fight for your Country , it's the AMERICAN way, MAN up…, stop hide behind the Women… Do the right thing..

  9. American leave Haiti alone American people Haitian poverty leave alone don't use power to keep us in poverty please leave the country alone we get fatigued with American people

  10. THANK YOU for making this video. I will be praying for Haiti and your sister. Living in the “hood” in America isn’t much different from living in Haiti. Guns, violence and poverty is in the Black community all over the world.

  11. Hopefully, both women and all the children will be safe. It's tough to see those children and women in harms way in Haiti.

    Hopefully, her sister will make it back to the U.S. soon.

    Hopefully, all of then fighting will stop forever in Haiti.
