I caught the 60 minutes piece on this tonight. It was heartwrenching and amazing that Haiti a shit country created by a slave revolt. A country made of nearly entirely Blacks of African ancestry and slave ancestry.
Yet they practice slavery and its 100% LEGAL in Haiti. Its called restaveks. Child of poor Haitian (which is an oxymoron, since everyone in Haiti is poor) either sell their children ot give them away. The "rich" families have all rights over these children until they are 18. These children are treated like DOGS! They work, sleep on the floor, don't get an education, can't leave without permission, are barely given food, clothes or anything. In the 60 minute piece, its said that many of the female Restaveks are routinely raped. Also in the piece, the former restavek stated he was worked night and day, then slept on the floor, when the family left he was to wait outside without food or water. These children remain slaves until they are 18 and then are just tossed into the streets without food, money, an education, job skills or a place to stay!
This is crap and fully supported and legal under Haitian law! Amazing, but where it the outcry? Where is the angry! Where are the liberal hypocrites calling for boycotts? Where is the hypocritical international community screaming for reform? Where is the UN sanctions? Where is the UN period?
Since this is a Black and in all due cases "African" country they get a free pass! Similar to the pograms against Whites in South Africa! It a travesty that the World Cup sanctioned its prestigious event in a Government Instituting Racial Discrimination country! I digress, why is slavery acceptable, because its by an "African" nation?
Note: Yes Haiti is a Caribbean Nation in Western Hemisphere, yet I call it African, because its viewed in a similar way. Its former slaves taken from Africa.
Note: Its estimated 200K-300K Haitian children are slaves in Haiti!
