‘Latortue, you can’t hide!’
Published May 19, 2005 9:15 PM
A militant and spirited group of Haitians, together with some North American supporters, gathered on May 14 outside the Puck Building in lower Manhattan. They heckled a bourgeois crowd who had come to meet Prime Minister Gerard Latortue, the usurper installed by the U.S. after President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was forced out of Haiti. However, Latortue didn't show. Instead he sent his defense minister, Herard Abraham, to meet with the $250-a-plate crowd.
