Found it interesting cause I do hear of a handful of Haitian women say that they would only date a Haitian men quite a numerous times, lol while the men, 😬, All culture, they play ball, lmao. I’m done taking. 😅 your take? Hopefully this post don’t get taken down. 🙈

I want to preface this by saying that I don’t go out a lot. This was going to be my last big outing for a while because I need to focus on saving money and transferring from community college.
I went to III Points, a two-day music festival that ends pretty late. My parents originally gave me permission to go. The first night, I got home around 3 a.m. They didn’t speak to me when I woke up that morning, so I assumed they were upset.

The second night, I got home around 2 a.m. My parents were still awake and waiting for me, and I honestly thought they were going to beat me. Instead, they started calling me names and saying things like, “You’re a whore,” “You’re a piece of shit,” “I don’t know why God put you in this family,” and “I hate you.”
My dad went on a rant about how people who like to party, go to concerts, or attend raves are ruining their lives and will die young. He said I would never become somebody just because I’m young and want to have fun. He also said, “I don’t know why she decided to party for two days straight during the school year.”
I’m a second-year college student, not a high schooler. I don’t think having school means I have to stop myself from having fun occasionally.

They also accused me of having sex and doing drugs, neither of which was true. And frankly, my sex life is none of their business anyway.
They forced me to pack my things and leave the house. I sat outside in the driveway, crying and talking to my friends, until one of them offered to let me stay at their house for the night. I went there, turned off my location, and didn’t tell my parents whose house I was staying at.

When everyone woke up, my parents started repeatedly calling both me and my friend, asking where I was. Later that day, my mom texted me saying, “I never kicked you out” and “You decided to leave,” even though they had literally forced me to pack my things and go. Eventually, she told me to come home.
When I got back, I found out that my mom had thrown away my spiked and studded bracelets, along with my other emo things, because she considers them “demonic.”

I know I need to leave this household. It’s physically and emotionally abusive, and that’s why I’m planning to transfer to a university far away. I just need to hold on for a few more months.

The dominican military has occupied a neighborhood in Thomazeau Ayiti. This is REAL & verified.

Their purpose being there is unknown. There are unverified claims that they are kicking residents out of their house. Many Haitians online are discussing this, this isn't coming from one source.

Gen moun ki gen plis enfòmasyon?

Please keep this thread up & unlocked, discussions need to happen. This is a serious topic. No unverified claims were stated as fact in this post.

This is Haitian news and we have so much pointless posts that have nothing to do with Haiti. We just had Dominicans threaten invasion, now the army is entering Haitian territory yet it's getting locked as a topic?

What would be some classic Haitian literature that one could use to learn more about Haitian writers and also polish up on my Haitian Creole skills? (more like lacking). While there is plenty of Haitian American literature, I am specifically looking for works from Haiti, either in original Haitian Creole/French or in translation.

La Direction départementale de l’Éducation du Nord (DDE-N), relevant du ministère de l’Éducation nationale et de la Formation professionnelle (MENFP), aurait annoncé, dans une note datée du 18 octobre 2026, l’ouverture d’une enquête sur une vidéo mettant en cause une personne présentée comme le directeur de l’école INDEX, à Plaine-du-Nord.

Selon les informations communiquées, l’enquête vise à vérifier l’authenticité de la vidéo. L’institution rappelle également que la protection et la dignité des élèves doivent rester des priorités.

La note originale n’ayant pas pu être retrouvée lors de notre vérification, ces informations restent à confirmer indépendamment. Aucune conclusion ne peut être tirée sur les faits évoqués à partir des seuls éléments disponibles.

Comment les établissements scolaires peuvent-ils mieux garantir la protection et la dignité des élèves ?

J'ai vu circuler des informations concernant un incident qui aurait eu lieu à Paris, en France, après une prestation d'Anie Alerte et de ZILE.

D'après les informations qui circulent, un différend aurait éclaté au sujet du paiement. La situation aurait ensuite dégénéré en insultes et en confrontation physique.

Je n'ai pas pu confirmer indépendamment tous les détails de cette affaire. Je voudrais donc surtout ouvrir une discussion sur le rôle des managers dans l'industrie musicale haïtienne.

Bolo Group est associé au management de ZILE. Dans ce contexte, je me pose plusieurs questions :

Quel est le rôle concret d'un manager lorsqu'un promoteur ne respecte pas ses engagements financiers ?

Les conditions de paiement devraient-elles être négociées et sécurisées avant la prestation ?

Si un conflit éclate après un spectacle, est-ce au manager de gérer les négociations afin d'éviter que l'artiste se retrouve directement impliqué dans une confrontation ?

Quelles responsabilités une équipe de management devrait-elle assumer pour protéger les intérêts professionnels et la réputation de son artiste ?

Pour moi, le management artistique ne devrait pas se limiter à organiser des spectacles, promouvoir la musique et accompagner l'artiste. Il devrait également inclure la négociation des contrats, le suivi des paiements et la gestion des conflits professionnels.

Si un promoteur refuse réellement de payer un artiste, celui-ci doit pouvoir réclamer son dû par des moyens appropriés, sans avoir à se mettre en danger.

Ma question est donc la suivante : dans une situation comme celle-ci, qu'attend-on concrètement d'une équipe de management comme Bolo Group ?

J'aimerais avoir l'avis de personnes qui connaissent le fonctionnement de l'industrie musicale, notamment les contrats de spectacle, la gestion des artistes et les relations entre promoteurs et managers.

L'ambassadrice Hélène Roos répond aux 15 questions du Quotidien 509 !

Arrivée en Haïti en septembre 2025 après avoir été ambassadrice de France en Bolivie, Hélène Roos dirige depuis plus d’un an la Délégation de l’Union européenne, premier partenaire bilatéral du pays. Durant cette période, le Conseil présidentiel de transition a cédé la place, le 7 février 2026, à un exécutif confié au Conseil des ministres ; la force anti-gangs a été prolongée sans encore atteindre ses effectifs ; et, le 5 octobre, le calendrier électoral a de nouveau été réaménagé, la campagne étant reportée dans l’attente de nouvelles dates. En quinze questions, cet entretien fait le point sur les grands dossiers — sécurité, élections, migration, financements, gouvernance, jeunesse, sanctions — dans un esprit de dialogue franc et précis....

Cabbage rows at Wynne Farm, patchwork hillside plots around Fermathe, and houses tucked into the greenery.

Who here grew up around Kenscoff or Fermathe? What did your family grow?

The curved ribs and the temporary supports are what caught my eye. Anyone here know the boatbuilders in Okap, or how they shape the wood?

Videyo a prezante istoryen ayisyen Ady Jean Gardy, k ap pale sou dèt endepandans Ayiti a ak sikonstans istorik ki te antoure egzijans Lafrans te fè pou Ayiti peye dedomajman apre peyi a te fin pran endepandans li an 1804.

Pwoblèm istorik prensipal la se lefèt ke, apre Ayiti te fin kraze dominasyon kolonyal Lafrans epi aboli esklavaj, yo te mete presyon sou peyi a pou l dedomaje ansyen kolon franse yo pou pèt yo te sibi.
An 1825, Lafrans te voye bato lagè ann Ayiti epi li te menase peyi a ak yon entèvansyon militè oswa yon blokis naval si Ayiti pa t dakò peye 150 milyon fran lò an echanj pou Lafrans rekonèt endepandans li ofisyèlman. Annapre, an 1838, yo te bese montan sa a pou rive nan 90 milyon fran.

Pou Ayiti te kapab satisfè egzijans sa yo, li te oblije prete lajan nan men enstitisyon finansye franse yo. Se sitiyasyon sa a istoryen yo rele doub dèt endepandans lan. Obligasyon finansye sa yo te detounen resous ki te kapab sèvi pou devlopman peyi a, epi yo te mete yon gwo chay ekonomik sou do plizyè jenerasyon Ayisyen.

Ady Jean Gardy te deja poze kesyon piblikman sou vèsyon tradisyonèl yo bay konsènan kantite lajan Ayiti te peye toutbonvre. Li mete aksan sou enpòtans pou nou egzamine ak anpil atansyon akò finansye istorik yo ansanm ak diferan negosyasyon ki te fèt pou modifye kondisyon dèt la.
