France’s costly ransom on Haiti left the newly independent nation economically crippled. Over time, foreign powers and corporations exploited Haiti’s resources, leading to crises and instability. Join the Haitian Afro-Descendant Collective (KAAD), IJDH, NYU’s Global Justice Clinic, and other allies in discussions on Haitian migration and the urgent need for reparative justice. Panel 1, "No Haven is Safe," addresses closed-door policies facing Haitian migrants. Panel 2, "Time for Justice and Reparative Transformation," explores measures for a democratic and prosperous Haiti. This event empowers Haitians and international allies to seek meaningful change.

Location: New York University Law School
Lester Pollack Colloquium room on the 9th floor of Furman Hall.
