Haiti’s history is far more complex than the labels of “failed state” or “poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere”. Haiti’s struggle for sovereignty has been shaped by a legacy of exploitation, foreign intervention, coups, and political instability, which have deepened the country’s dependency of foreign aid. In this video we explore how Western countries like the United States and France have contributed to the current situation of poverty and violence in Haiti.
