The Ongoing Coup d'etat in Haiti

In part 2 of my interview with Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine, now online at HaitiAction.net, Lovinsky talks about what he calls the "ongoing coup d'etat of 2004."

He discusses the danger of a potential preparation of yet another coup d'etat by such initiatives as the creation of a parallel police force using the 800 former members of the dreaded Haitian Army who are now in the Haitian National Police.

Weblogs

Dominion Weblogs compiles the weblogs of Dominion editors and writers. The topics discussed are wide-ranging, but Canadian Foreign Policy, grassroots politics, and independent media are chief among them.

The Dominion is an excellent example of an independent publication that maintains rigorous standards for factual accuracy while providing ground-breaking information and analysis for social movements to reflect, strategize, and strengthen themselves. With the increasing power of corporate media to serve the interests of a powerful elite by upholding ideological and factual lies and inaccuracies, publications like the Dominion have been vital to bringing forward the voices of those most impacted by these lies, both locally and globally.

--Harsha Walia, Vancouver-based activist and writer with No One is Illegal, Palestine and Indigenous solidarity movements
