What caused Haitians to finally explode? IMF imposed austerity signed by @DrArielHenry in July, which required him to completely end fuel subsidies - the only state subsidy that existed in #Haiti. No subsidized health care, no free schooling, NOTHING.

Did you know that after the US, France & Canada backed the 2004 coup they promised 100s of millions of dollars to reform #Haiti's prisons and judiciary? Yet today prisons have become death camps where over 80% are held without ever being charged with a crime or seeing a judge.

After a New Day of Anti-Government Protests in Haiti

Haitians have been mobilizing against the Ariel Henry administration’s inability to combat crime, inflation and poverty. All of these ills are a direct result of Haiti's status as a puppet of the U.S. and its allies. The people are fighting for their sovereignty.
This article was originally published in Peoples Dispatch .

On August 29, in a new day of nationwide anti-government demonstrations, thousands of Haitians once again hit the streets in different parts of the country to protest against widespread insecurity, growing scarcity of fuel and the high cost of living.

In the town of Petit Goâve, in western Haiti, citizens held a massive demonstration demanding the resignation of Prime Minister and acting President Ariel Henry, arguing that during the past one year of his management, he exacerbated the economic, political and social crisis in the country.

According to reports from Rezo Nowdes, at least one demonstrator died after police launched tear gas at protesters in order to disperse them. The demonstrator was Roland Rathon, who was asthmatic and died from suffocation. Eleven other people were injured, including two with serious bullet wounds. The demonstrators put the responsibility for the violence on the security agents of the secretary general of the National Palace, Josué Pierre-Louis, who was visiting the region. Reportedly, several pro-government counter-protesters also threw rocks at protesters.

In the capital of Port-au-Prince, dozens of citizens staged a sit-in in front of Henry’s official residence, demanding that he step down. These demonstrators were also repressed and dispersed by the police with tear gas.

In addition to the sit-in, in Port-au-Prince, hundreds of protesters organized roadblocks with debris, erected barricades with burning tires, shut down businesses and marched through the streets in areas such as Champ de Mars, Delmas viaduct, Petion Ville, Nazon and Laule, rejecting soaring gang violence and high prices of essential commodities and basic services.
Since last Monday, Haitians have been mobilizing in the streets, criticizing the Henry administration’s inability to combat crime, inflation and poverty. On August 22, 23 and 24, under the banner of “Rise up for another independence”, members of several civil society organizations, popular movements, trade unions, opposition parties, and citizens in general organized different protest actions in Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haïtien, Petit-Goâve, Miragoâne, Les Cayes and Jacmel.

According to popular media platform Radyo Rezistans or Radio Resistance, during these three days of social protests, at least four protesters were killed and 19 were injured in police repression and in attacks by armed supporters of the Henry government.

Various social organizations and trade unions have called for nationwide mobilizations on September 4, and a general strike on September 5 and 6.
For the last four years, Haiti has been going through an acute social, political, institutional and economic crisis. The situation has worsened since the assassination of its de-facto president Jovenel Moïse in July 2021. Armed gangs have been increasingly seizing control of the national territory.

Violence and kidnappings have surged in Port-au-Prince and nearby areas in recent months, with warring gangs killing hundreds of civilians in their battles over territory. Reportedly, the gangs control nearly 30% of the national territory, and the clashes have caused more than 500 deaths since this April.

Poverty has also deepened, with inflation reaching 29%. The price of basic food products such as rice has quadrupled. Meanwhile, fuel remains the most scarce commodity. Service stations have been closed for months. In the illegal market, if available, petrol is sold at triple the price, costing USD$15 a gallon.

People dying in #Haiti’s prisons without water and food, in the heat, with no family to help them because families can’t get there because there’s no gas, and tuberculosis is also rampant, and no medical care. #letthemout.

Haiti remains paralyzed this morning. There is no fuel anywhere except the rare gallon sold at extortionate pricing on the black market. No traffic, except a rare motorcycle. Hospitals are announcing shut downs one by one. There is no drinking water in most neighborhoods. #haiti
