Haitian minorities in Ohio are experiencing an alarming rise in threats and harassment. This escalation, fueled by far-right rhetoric and seen here on X, demands urgent attention. Both the Haitian community and political leaders must come together to address this growing

Haitian solders risked & gave their lives fighting alongside the Patriots during the American Revolution in 1779. This monument in downtown Savannah honors their service. Several who served in the American war for independence would later fight in the war for Haitian independence

Today my thoughts are of Captain Alix Idrache, a US Army helicopter pilot, who graduated at the top of his West Point class with a degree in physics in 2016. He's also a Haitian immigrant.

Thanks for shining a spotlight on the many contributions of #Haitians to the civil rights movement. The wise words of Desdunes still ring true today: "It is more noble and dignified to fight, no matter what, than to show a passive attitude of resignation."

Thanks for sharing your insights from the African Development Bank Group Transport Forum. Road crashes are the leading cause of death for children + youth. We all have a role to play to reverse this trend. Road safety saves lives & accelerates inclusive economic growth across Africa. #ATF2024

Powerful quote from Dessalines: "We have dared to be free. Let us dare to be so by ourselves and for ourselves." Devwad memwa.

This beautifully written piece by roxane gay covers the long history of racist, anti-Haitian rhetoric in the U.S. The Haitian revolution, the early days of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, and the disparate treatment of #Haitian immigrants from both sides of the aisle are all interconnected.

Safer roads for all + effective policies ensure that young people and communities thrive and can support local economies. In Uganda, we work with @ROSACU to elevate road safety on the national agenda + advance lifesaving policies. #ATF2024 #RoadSafety

Good read on why #RoadSafety is a key public health, economic development issue that policymakers across Africa must address. Motorcycle delivery platforms also play an important role in making sure their staff have access to safe, certified helmets.

A doctor has been serving one of Baltimore’s poorest neighborhoods for decades — and if his patients can’t pay, that’s OK with him. So when he was diagnosed with cancer, his community rallied to raise $100,000 for his treatments. cbsnews.com/news/beloved-b…
