“Jovenel Moise’s path to president was paved with US, Canadian and French funding and support,” said Dr Jemima Pierre, a Haitian American anthropologist and political analyst at UCLA. Pierre and Dr Gerald Horne, the University of Houston historian and prolific author, provided historical context to Haitian events at a webinar on “Haiti vs Imperialism and Neocolonialism” shortly before President Moise’s demise. “Millions have called for the resignation of the corrupt and anti-democratic, illegitimate president,” said Pierre.”
