Publisher: Common Courage
Release Date: 2004-09-02
ITEM OVERVIEW
Did Aristide leave Haiti voluntarily? Why did the US want him out? What does the regime change mean for the Haitians? Did Aristide "overstay his welcome" in the words of Dick Cheney, who never had a welcome in his own country to overstay? After 35 coups, what does the double entendre mean to get Haiti "right" this time? Chomsky, Farmer, and Amy Goodman (through several interviews, including with Aristide) provide the answers the world has been waiting for.
