| It's
hard to believe that in modern Haiti the people are moved against their
will to harvest crops in Honduras, made to incur heavy debt at the company
store for basic survival quantities of food, and are paid so poorly they
never pay off their debt and therefore never regain their liberty to leave.
On his hospital bed, Djo tells the story of how he escaped this trip and
became a worker for President Aristide. |
