Summary:
Did Aristide leave Haiti voluntarily? Why did the U.S. want him out? What does the regime change mean for the health of Haitians? Did Aristide "overstay his welcome," in the words of Vice President Dick Cheney? After 35 coups, what does the double entendre mean to get Haiti "right" this time? From Noam Chomsky, author of Hegemony and Survival, from Paul Farmer, subject of the New York Times biography Mountains Beyond Mountains, from Jean-Bertrand Aristide, president of Haiti and first lady Mildred Aristide, and from Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman, come the answers the world has been waiting for.
