AE's Linked Article said:Specifically, Harriot attributes this poverty to an odious agreement foisted upon Haiti in 1825 by the French, which required Haiti to pay ‘reparations’ to France for lost property after Haitian slaves heroically won their independence in 1804—the lost ‘property’ in question was the Haitian slaves themselves.
Haiti is paying dearly for a seriously bad deal.
A better option would have been to kill all the French in Haiti.
At least they may have had more trees.
Haiti also had a couple of purges along the wat they drained the country of education, professional gubmint bureaucrats, engineers and business professionals. Bad moves.
They can blame themselves.
The real question: "is Haiti fixable?"

This guy didn't come looking for the full story. He came looking for racism.99% of problems blamed on the racism of the rest of the world.
He's from Vox. He left a bunch of things out of his piece because they didn't fit his pre-concluded narrative, either from ignorance or willful omission. 'Nuff said...Hum not 1 word about the haitian takeover of the whole island. and the war to get it back. another NGO suckup
When he quoted the article of the constitution, notice how he conveniently left out the ‘exceptions to persons in transit.’Hum not 1 word about the haitian takeover of the whole island. and the war to get it back. another NGO suckup

This is an excellent point. The Haitian invasion and occupation was horrendous. You won't hear the Left mention it because it doesn't fit their narrative of the Haitian people's supposedly intrinsic innocence. This is why studying history is so important.
I can't believe how ignorant people (including the political classes) are these days. It is an extremely dangerous situation. People are using historical calculus that isn't based on facts, but instead rely on historical revision shaped by political correctness and a spectacularly warped liberal ideology.
It always comes down to DNA.
No mention of that in the video either.
Science is fact.
The left likes to ignore it, except when they are religion bashing.
