Benin City, Nigeria, sketch of straw and stick houses hundreds of years ago(
100 African Cities Destroyed By Europeans: WHY there are seldom historical buildings and monuments in sub-Saharian Africa, by Mawuna Remarque Koutonin):

Benin, straw stick and mud homes hundreds of years ago There was a vast system of defensive walling totalling 10,000 miles in all. Even before the full extent of the city walling had become apparent the Guinness Book of Records carried an entry in the 1974 edition that described the city as: “The largest earthworks in the world carried out prior to the mechanical era.”

"Camp cities are forming close to the border near Anse-a-Pitres, located in the Sudest Department as they try and manage the influx of 'voluntary deportees' returning to Haiti. How can they be voluntary if they are arriving without any shoes or belongings" -Kara Lightburn, July 10, 2015

Comment la RD(DR) en complicité avec l'etat Haïtien a fabriqué ces apatrides en ne délivrant pas d'actes de naissances aux enfants nés dans les bateyes:



Chidi Osuagwu, April 18, 2015: "It might be of interest to note the symbolism of the palm-tree in the Haitian national symbol. The symbolism of the palm-tree is in the fibrous-roots.

The palm-tree has no tap-root, but the small but very many fibrous roots, acting in concert, generate a great SYNERGISTIC RESISTANCE FORCE called AVUTU among the Igbo; one of the Guinean nations, whose political thought inspired Haitian revolutionaries. Avutu means unconquerable; un-uprootable by any STORM. The palm-tree is the symbol of my village; Umuabazu, symbol of my clan; Obowu and symbol of my Igbo heartland people. Synergistic Resistance Force; AVUTU is what it symbolizes at all levels. Haitians should get to know that ‘The Devil’ that defeated the world powers, 1789-1804, is called AVUTU…SYNERGY."

Guinea was part of the Mali empire, rich in gold. Haiti is rich in gold now--

Did you know that in the 14th century the city of Timbuktu in West Africa was five times bigger than the city of London, and was the richest city in the world?

Today, Timbuktu is 236 times smaller than London. It has nothing of a modern city. Its population is two times less than 5 centuries ago, impoverished with beggars and dirty street sellers. The town itself is incapable of conserving its past ruined monuments and archives.

Back to the 14 century, the 3 richest places on earth was China, Iran/Irak, and the Mali empire in West Africa. From all 3 the only one which was still independent and prosperous was the Mali Empire. China and the whole Middle East were conquered by Genghis Kan Mongol troops which ravaged, pillaged, and raped the places.

The richest man ever in the history of Humanity, Mansa Musa, was the emperor of the 14th century Mali Empire which covered modern day Mali, Senegal, Gambia, and Guinea.

At the time of his death in 1331, Mansa Musa was worth the equivalent of 400 billion dollars. At that time Mali Empire was producing more than half the world’s supply of salt and gold.

Compare the stick frames DR deportees are building as soon as they arrive in Haiti, to these wattle-and-daub sticks and straw "kay pay" in an established Haitian village:








Karen Bultje


The above picture of a normal village in Haiti shows a very small house. That family does not own land, so they are being sponsorred, as if they were DR deportees, to build a tent-size kay pay on the lakou of another.

Below photo shows how 2010 earthquake survivors have taken land to themselves, and built permanent housing.
