Haiti: A state abandoned

This week on Lumumba’s Africa: Professor PLO Lumumba delivers a searing lecture on Haiti. He traces the line from its revolutionary triumph – the first black republic – to its present crisis, framing it not as a failed state, but as a state strategically abandoned and punished for its audacity to be free.

Haiti: A state abandoned
Lumumba’s Africa focuses on the past and current issues affecting the African continent; Filmed amidst the beautiful landscapes of Kenya and hosted by Professor P.L.O. Lumumba, the show looks at the many dichotomies of Africa: why are some of the economies thriving while others stall; why conflicts emerge and refuse to die down, and why despite colonialism being ‘gone’, it still ruins the prosperity of nations.
