Today, Friday July 28th, 2023, marks the 108th anniversary of the US invasion of Haiti. Haitians in Haiti and abroad are demonstrating on this occasion for an end to the present destructive US-UN occupation and to say NO to any planned expansion or more intervention in the form of additional, deadly military and police forces. The 1915 invasion and occupation, and subsequent foreign interventions are at the root of the terrible conditions that people today in Haiti are living under, fueling the massive refugee crisis.

This past May 18th, Haitian Flag Day, Haiti Action Committee organized an International Day of Action. Protests occurred throughout the US and the world, condemning the US-UN occupation and making the demands below of the US government and the United Nations. Please join us in solidarity with the people resisting in Haiti by calling and/or emailing the Biden Administration, United Nations Secretary General and your Congressional representatives with the following demands:
- Stop using US tax dollars to fund the brutal Haitian police and affiliated death squads such as the G-9 responsible for gross human rights violations.
- Stop attacking and deporting Haitian refugees.
- No more foreign intervention in Haiti. Support the right of the Haitian people to establish their own transition government free from US and Core Group interference. Oppose the fiction– being perpetuated by the Biden Administration – that the Ariel Henry dictatorship is capable of organizing fair and free elections.
