Strange: Loune Viaud,
a cousin of Haiti's totalitarian dictator Jean-Bertrand Aristide and a person we met about
fourteen years ago, is not a human rights pioneer. She has no record of so at all in
the Haitian immigrant communities or Haiti. She is, rather, one of the Haitians who
approve Aristide's burning of political opponents alive. wehaitians.com |
