The spirit of Ubuntu, that once led Haiti to emerge as the first independent black nation in 1804, helped Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador attain liberty, and inspired our forefathers to shed their blood for the United States' independence, cannot die. Today, this spirit of solidarity must and will empower all of us to rebuild Haiti. -Jean-Bertrand Aristide Independence
Of course, learning is strengthened and solidified when it occurs in a safe, secure and normal environment. -Jean-Bertrand Aristide Learning
