Myth: Haiti Needs [MORE] Foreign Military Intervention (w/ Dr. Jemima Pierre)

The Black Myths Podcast

For this episode, we sit down with Dr. Jemima Pierre to discuss Haiti and its history of foreign intervention. Dr. Pierre explores the historical foundations that led to the influx of "gangs" in Haiti that the UN and US is now attempting to exploit as a justification for intervention. She demonstrates how Haiti has been under constant meddling since it's revolutionary inception.
