Haiti - Descent Into Anarchy

Published: May 7, 2024, 5 a.m.

With criminal gangs now controlling most of Haiti's capital and no function government, Mike Thomson explores what caused this spiralling descent to Anarchy in this predominately Christian, Caribbean country, where more than half its eleven million French and Creole speaking people live below the poverty line. Mike looks for answers with help from Haitians, experts and political leaders who\u2019ve lived through many of their nation\u2019s recent social upheavals and natural disasters.
