Debt, Coups & Colonialism in Haiti: France & U.S. Urged to Pay Reparations for Destroying Nation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 май 2022
- We look in depth at “The Ransom,” a new series in The New York Times that details how France devastated Haiti’s economy by forcing Haiti to pay massive reparations for the loss of slave labor after enslaved Haitians rebelled, founding the world’s first Black republic in 1804. We speak with historians Westenley Alcenat and Gerald Horne on the story of Haiti’s finances and how Haitian demands for reparations have been repeatedly shut down. Alcenat says the series “exposes the rest of the world to a knowledge that actually has existed for over a hundred years,” and while he welcomes the series, he demands The New York Times apologize for publishing racist Haitian stereotypes in 2010 by columnist David Brooks. Horne also requests The New York Times make the revelatory documents that the series cites accessible to other historians. He says the series will “hopefully cause us to reexamine the history of this country and move away from the propaganda point that somehow the United States was an abolitionist republic when actually it was the foremost slaveholder’s republic.”

_"These countries aren't underdeveloped they're overexploited."_ - Michael Parenti
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🙏🌏💖💖💖
Yep
Facts!
So true.
All colonies were robbed of their valuables and their people.
by the chosen ones, NOT WHITES.
France needs to refund with interest their extortion of Haiti.
Yes they most certainly should if they can send millions of euros of weapons to Nazis then most certainly reparations to Haiti is also possible.
United States need to pay reparations to Haiti also. Either the United States pay reparations too or they enforce France to pay double back what they stole with interests. Every money that was stolen during the earthquake needs to be repaid in double too. Every single resource stolen should paid back in double. I don't want to hear no excuses either. F YOU, PAY ME.
Totally agree
Everywhere France has been it leaves destruction, havoc, poverty behind and they come back to take more and more.
@@leonelfonju9884 just like the united states. how similar, isn't it?
Indeed, the recent market downturn serves as evidence that a vast majority of individuals lacked a sufficient understanding of the underlying financial dynamics at play.
My primary worry revolves around bouncing back from the current economic and global challenges and maintaining stability, particularly with the ongoing political power struggle in the United States.
It's a delicate season now, so you can do little or nothing on your own. Hence I’ll suggest you get yourself a financial expert that can provide you with valuable financial information and assistance.
@Mark Lofgren Given the unsettling news I've been seeing about the market, I've been exploring the possibility of working with an advisor. Can you share who's been helping you navigate this challenging environment?
@Mark Lofgren Thank you for this tip. it was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her resume....
Researched her accreditation. She seem very proficient, I wrote her detailing my Fin-market goals and scheduled a call.
Thank you Haiti for leading the way and inspiring your brother, sisters and cousins in other regions to fight for their freedom. We will overcome ...from 🇯🇲
They still need to pay it.
He is entitled to go back to Haiti because he is an Haitian

@@krillin876 u said the Haitians "have been oppressors before." They hadnt. Initially they had to return to a quazi state of slavery to harvest and maintain their food immediately after the war. That's common among nations in which war was fought on their soil. So again your conflation is crazy and thats why I pointed it out
Oh gosh. There is so much harm our country has done to other nations in our name. I have not heard of so much of it. I feel so ashamed of how our government has been treating these refugees. Thank you for helping to open my eyes.
We really need a whole new way of governing. Wrong is wrong. The rich do not get to keep making money off of slavery. What the heck!
The more I hear of France, the more disgusted I am

That's not true. In South Carolina, Jamaican and Haitian migrant workers would come every year to work in the peach and apple orchards there. They worked, lived, married and had children with black American men and women. So much so that they have a small community outside of Aiken,SC on highway No.1 to this very day.

@Nogent You know what "@Robinson Rochelle" is talking about, it's in the Video above and it's also in the Minds of People around the World. "@Robinson Rochelle is talking about "Justice" being given right now to "Haiti" which is the Number 1 Black African Disporian Republic, for their "Freedom", their "Independence" and their "Economy" which was "Stolen" from them by White Europeans and those White Europeans' Ancestors in America and around the rest of the World.
Damage to Haiti was done and was also always being done, by "White European Influence" aswell.

Every generation needs to learn about the Transatlantic Slave Trade. A valuable lesson and a WARNING from history

@@sweynforkbeard8857Is that documented in Deuteronomy 28:68? The Most High God is only concerned with the Israelites. If you understood the text you’d know He loves Jacob but hated Esau! Romans 9:13.

Im Dominican 🇩🇴 I am glad this is being discussed more. Hopefully one day my people will be allowed to breathe oxygen and not be the scapegoat of this dysfunctional debt triangle.
When I was in France doing my Master's in Economic Development, we were doing comparative studies about Development between countries. This French teacher had the audacity to try to explain the difference between Haiti and Singapore. As an African, I knew how French actions have impacted negatively the progress of Haiti. I got up of my chair and protested vehemently to the surprise of my classmates.
The same teacher who visited China in the 60s also did the same by claiming China is a very poor country based on his visit in the 60s, which led my Chinese classmate to protest ( timidly though).
Couldn't have been the atrocities that hatians engaged in... No no no... Let's just call welfare reparations
Free Haiti!! I’m a 47 yo female from Jamaica and all my life I’ve seen the Haitian people tried many times to have their own government and it hasn’t happened as yet!
Understanding colonization can be depressing!
Haitians are foreign descendants occupying foreign territory just like you every nation that’s been colonized have manage some way to build back up Haiti is over populated plague with poverty,hunger,chaos,crime,destruction,decease, a place literally ruined by them 200 yrs of history and nothings change
I have visited Haiti. Never have I met so many good, brave and beautiful people struggling against so many difficult problems. This episode reveals what many have known for years: Haiti has been undermined and attacked since it first gained it's freedom. The Haitians met President "all men are created equal" Jefferson and were turned away. We owe the Louisiana Purchase in many ways to the successful Haitian Revolution. France gave up on its hope of a "New" world empire and sold its North American holding to the US. Have we ever thanked the Haitians? No, but we did loan them money (US banks) to pay reparations to the French. Exploitation more than human rights.
Thanks Andy, your comment is a great summary of what happened to Haiti.
Policies towards Hali, Africa and other countries of darker pigmentation have resulted in gross human rights abuse and gross exploitation courtesy of
e u r o p e a n s.
France sold the Louisiana purchase to fund Napoleon's wars.
Thank u Andy for being objective and for speaking the truth and not propaganda about haitian people. The haitian people are the true exceptional peoples for their resiliency in struggling to survive beyond all obstacles placed in their path by former colonizers. We can still see it today, the unwavering efforts the masses are making in order to survive beyond imagination. Haiti is an agrarian state where 80% of its pop was employed in agriculture which produced 95% of its domestic consumption up to early 21st century under President Aristide. When a country produces majority of its domestic consumption, it paves the way to development, social and economic which was interrupted by US foreign policy begining in the 1978 with the eradication of the creole pigs that represented capital investments for the masses. It costs the US implemented by USAID $23 million to annihilate the creole pigs meanwhile that economic devastation wiped out $600 million from the Haitian economy that year. It is imperative to remember that the pigs were assets that would continue to grow with each porcine breeding every 6 months or twice a year. It is quite simple to figure out how much the economic destruction the US foreign policy inflicted upon the peasant farmers for years to come. A simple calculation of the $600 mil multiply by 44 years would amount to $26.4 and that is only a moderate calculation of one breeding a year not two which amount would double. The lost of the creole pigs set off a wave of migrants to the florida keys as many families were bankrupted and the govt was unable to provide any relief for the economic losses suffered by smallholder farmers. Today, Haiti still finds small merchants peddling the streets with any little trunkets or food crops they purchase for resell in order to make a living and not rely on handouts or govt assistance which doesnt exist. The predatory mafia class holding the economy hostage uses the govt as its first client where majority of their investments are purchased by the govt which leaves no budget for socio-economic programs, not education, not healthcare and no job creation. Haiti is a mafia state that the people must work to destroy these predators that are devastating the lives of the Haitian people. Its bad govt, its no govt at all to create the atmosphere to pillage and plunder the resources of the state. There are resource studies showing that Haiti has more oil than venezuela, hydrocarbons, copper, nickle, silver, gold, irridium and uranium, etc. These resources are said to be worth trillions of dollars. In fact Haiti is not poor, Haiti is poorly managed and its state is held captive by the predators in the atlantic.
Little known fact: Napoleon had a plan that after defeating the Haitians he would use it's battle hardened soldiers to help set up an empire in its Louisiana territory. That would've had the US facing the nightmare scenario of having armed and experienced black soldiers of an enemy nations sharing the sub continent and the prospect of their own slaves escaping across the border and joining up with the French/Haitian armies
Thank you very much for revealing the real truth Haitian history as a Haitian it is always a heartbreaking to see Haiti the way it is now. Haiti has been punished for decade and decade . and struggle for decade and decade while others are living well on top of Haitian resources. God blessed all of you who works on this history.

Ignorance and lack of knowledge are fatal. The wise old saying that "my people perish because a lack of knowledge" has never been true as it is now. My mother is 71 years old born in 1951. She is the so called "American Christian" and have been indoctrinated to believe the lies of white American Christians that Haiti and Africa are punished by GOD due to their witchcraft and voodoo religions. Of course, growing up as a kid you believe what your parents or guardians repeat over and over again and/or tell you. But ever since I've researched, studied and learned the truth I can't tell you how angry it makes me. I found myself angry all the time. Knowledge is power but it also makes you angry, lol. How can you be an enemy to your parents? But Jesus said that the gospel will turn mother against daughter and son against father. Although, I avoid these topics when we get together but it is hard to ignore the feelings. I don't know about your upbringing, but I sense that this misleading information and miseducation has been the fabric of all Americans, but especially black Americans throughout history in the USA. We have single handedly been the instruments of our own self-destruction. We have helped to destroy and persecute our leaders and profits.

This isn't new and this is coming from someone who was born and partly raised in the Caribbeans. Pale-skinned European/French people like Christopher Columbus renamed my birthplace and other Indigenous islands. My birthplace, "St. Croix", isn't the actual/real name. Just like "America" isn't the actual/original/real name of this Indigenous, stolen, continent. A lot of you "woke adults" are still to blame, including the *"woke adults"* at *"Democracy Now".* There was also no such thing as *"politics/politicians"* when Indigenous people became the first people on this planet. I am also/still sick and tired of the majority of *"woke"* Caucasian people who still feel the need to "educate" Black/Brown about Black/Brown history. It is the same mess when my "woke" mother moved me to the divided states to live with certain "woke family members" for a "better education". My so-called, woke, grandmother basically had the audacity to tell me, " Now that you're in states, you can't/shouldn't speak in our Caribbean accent/dialect because white people will make fun of you and think you're a dummy" while still speaking in our Caribbean accent/dialect. The majority of other people of color are still brainwashed by Caucasian washed "education". There were also no such slavery, racism, and or wars when Indigenous tribes were on this planet, first. Indigenous people of color were already the first people to create/invent things like tools, agriculture, inclusiveness, housing, herbal medicines, surgeries, music.

Great topic. Love it. Thank you
hi Mr JG nice interview and good to see you live the way you deliver.
When I was a kid I was swamped by the Western doctrination that the countries of Europe and North America are the leading democratic forces in the world. Everyone else was either bad (Soviets, Chinese - Communism, of course Fascism Nazism) or beneath us (African countries, India, south America etc). I grew up believing that the West European and North American way of life was the best.
It has become clear, again again, that the advantage the white European/American has, is founded on the tortured bodies and minds of millions of people who were enslaved, exploited, massacred, mutilated.
Only if you have a distorted view. Are you saying the Soviet’s were better or the Chinese now with their indoctrination camps? The ascent of the West was as much to do with technical innovation and laws as anything else.
@@jonesyjones7626 you have been brainwashed by white supremacist propaganda so called HIStory books.
@@jonesyjones7626 I do not say communism or Nazism were better - I am Jewish, the Nazis could have easily wiped out my family, I also know what attrocities the Stalin regime committed. This is not the point. I am writing about how the white west always "knows" it is the best way, with the highest moral standards, shining the beacon of democracy. This is simply untrue when wetsern countries deal with foreign countries that have nonwhite nonEuropean/American populations
@@jonesyjones7626 There you go deflecting as usual. Own your oppressive history past present and future instead of calling out others. Last time I checked I do not see Russians or Chinese killing off and taking over the original Australians, Americans, Canadians, South Africa, New Zealand etc. I will tell you something today, the colonizers will pay dearly for all the bloodshed and pain they have caused across the world.

For those who have not read it and who are interested in the subject of Haiti, the historical records, and colonialism and post-colonial exploitation, I highly recommend the book "Silencing the past: Power and the Production of History" by Michel-Rolph Trouillot. A very important work indeed.
its almost like decolonization never has any success.
Here is the sad part about helping poor countries, if those nations can never maintain the assistance they receive by their own means-they will always, like clockwork, find themselves worse off. Example, if you airdrop food on a population-they will eat, children will grow, population will grow, but if they do not take over that food production you will have a situation with more mouths too feed than before help was sent.
When the airdops of food stop, absolute hell on earth raises, and starvation is a worse death than war.
@@disconductorder Clearly, you don't understand what "assistance" truly is. It's not aid. It's exploitation.
@@kiciacoldspring1621 what exactly is Haiti being exploited for? Sounds like their gov is thoroughly corrupt, the problem with all struggling nations.

I'm late to the show but...THANK YOU!
Very informative, thanks to all those who are responsible for putting this program, together had no idea of the extent of my Haitian Brothers and sisters struggling's.
Haiti... My fellow neighbor that has always been a soft spot in my heart....,❤️! Now AU refused to acknowledge Haiti as part of the member state and i needn't ask who is behind this... Its time we get rid of this psychological strong hold on us where we hate our people and love our enemies! Its stupid and destructive.. African people must stand up and stand with Haiti 🇻🇨🇭🇹. !
was it anal albo or shit scoop scomo that did that? Our pollies are so weak
🇯🇲 🇬🇭
I praise the Hattians for their leadership in the struggle for freedom. All Africans should stand together to eliminate the deficit and claim compensation!
AU is compromised. it doesn't speak for Africans....it will soon be toppled.
@@missym6137Compensation from whom? I would start with the Rothschilds, for sure. I know the typical, average citizen tax payer of western civilization doesn't owe anyone compensation. It's bad enough people think they are entitled to reparations. Is everything a shakedown?
France needs to pay reparations to these countries and the US needs to pay reparations to it's own people
I couldn't agree more!💯💯💯💯💯
The U.S also owes Haiti, because the government took our gold reserves when they went to occupy Haiti.
Black Americans need the reparations for all of the damages this country did. Even in the roads.
Learn to realize how the world has always worked and you will measure the absurdity of your words, you already know the answer.
The only ethnic group of people the U.S. owes reparations to is the Freedmen (NON FOREIGN BLACK AMERICANS) under the 1866 treaties. All other treaties were canceled and every other ethnic and cultural grouping already received federal restitution. Italians and Guamanians included.
Ooh...Amy, what a great report!
Wow this is so informative. I remember a little about Hispaniola in school but we aren’t educated much about the history of people and places very near us. This makes sense why, self incrimination and examination.
I grew up in nyc in in the 80s. The Haitian students in school were bullied, ridiculed not by white kids but mostly by African American kids . I could not understand that . if only these black American kids were taught the truth and history of Haiti , I feel they would have had a little respect for them .
Thank you for your enlightening comments. As a Haitian-American man that grew up in Brooklyn during the 1970s, I also recall the bullying and ridiculing from ignorant Black American kids.
It's this lack of education and knowledge that will always hold certain people back. But when you're dealing with some people that refuse to read books, it's practically a helpless cause.
I'm extremely proud of my history, war heroes, and culture regardless of our current situation. I hope that things will get better very soon.
@@zroy9263 those ignorant kids are usually victims of targeted violence in the form of neighborhoods flooded with drugs destroying the lives of traumatized and vulnerable people and their families, underfunded schools, racist policing, general racial terrorism etc all of which they are lost within but for the strongest spirited. In a healthy environment conducive to health and peace, many more would read. It is less that they refuse and more that they are absoultely devastated. It is a holocaust in the inner cities
SELF HATRED AND IGNORANCE MIXED WITH COLONIALISM AND CANONIZED RELIGION IS A DANGEROUS THING!
@@sknmwms6516 True facts! There are a lot of Black people in this country that believes Obama can't do wrong, simply because he's Black and a Democrat.
I'm certainly proud of his achievements, and he is a fine example for ANY man in this world.
However, the fact that the first Black president, never bothered to visit the first and only free Black nation in the western hemisphere, really told me what he was truly about.
He visited practically every country in
Europe, Japan, China, India, Australia, Israel etc.
But not my ancestors homeland. It would have been helpful if the first Black President confronted the French Government in regards to the billions in reparations that we were forced into paying under the threat of sanctions, embargoes, and more war (The United States was also willing to support these devils to fortify white supremacy), because of the fact that we fought and killed as men, and freed ourselves from the scourge of slavery! These billions that we have been paying would help to build our nation, but it wasn't important to him obviously.
His former underboss Biden, has rolled out the red carpet for the Ukrainians, yet he treated the Haitian refugees like savages, and returned them to a very destitute situation.
Yet, most Black American people believe in everything Democrat. Oh yeah, and fuck dem Republicans as well!
@@zroy9263
Obama visited those countries because those countries are actually important & significant to US foreign policy.
Sorry to tell you that, but Haiti is irrelevant to America in any form. That's the same reason Obama didn't visit to Mongolia either. Because they don't matter either.
Do you really think Obama would put loyalty to his race over loyalty to the country by antagonizing France, one of the most important ally over problems with Haiti?
You are criticizing over very nonsensical issue.
I wish to repeat demands for Caribbean athletes to boycott Paris Olympics 24. No Olympics in Paris until and unless France repays Haiti for its gangsterism against the noble and long-suffering people of Haiti who more than any group of people are responsible for our freedom from enslavement.

@@kensington3942 But Ukraine ....
The people you think are "indigenous" were Siberian invaders who enslaved native Black Americans and failed to pay over 360 years of reparations and treaty assets to U.S. Freedmen. Those same five dollar Indians were already paid their federal restitution and still are unapologetic for their role in helping the United States lay the ground work for Jim Crow. After I learned the truth about "red masters" I lost All RESPECT FOR THEM!! They owe native Freedmen 1866 treaty assets in the trillions!

@@will_sfv Don't forget about Africa.
I was aware of Haitian peoples being turned away from entering the U.S. but I had no idea of the deep atrocities mentioned in this report. What happened to Haiti is diabolical and reparations should be paid, both from France and the U.S. Many Haitians are beautiful, talented people; I can only imagine what it could’ve become without outside interference? Thank you for this clear telling report!!
You are NOT going to get TRUTH on RUclips - please know that. Do you see what is happening to western civilization? Are you aware of the anti-White agenda that is being shoved down our throats? We don't owe anybody anything - we are not responsible for what our parasitic "owners" have done in the past. Europeans and Americans...Canadians, Australians....if you can't see what is happening, you are either blind or anti-White and pleased.

Would have been the pearl of the Caribbean again..maybe the world greatest Black nation in the world..I believed we will once we realize our enemies again.

They more than anyone need reparations. First from France and US. The UN has been worthless is helping them in any way. God will judge all the evil done to those poor people.

Thanks for this very important report...keep up the fight brothers and sisters.
We have screwed over Haiti time and time again throughout our history. Nice to see people actually talking about it.
We haven't done anything, put the blame where it lies and that's at the feet of politicians and wealthy business people.
@@chrispreston256 Our indifference and ignorance contributes.
@Kaii Frazz It wasn't simply Haitian leaders. Not only did we cut off all trade with Haiti after their independence we also occupied the country in 1915 and installed our own puppet government. So we are also responsible for Haiti's leadership problem.
@Kaii Frazz Yes they need reparations from France. But we also owe Haiti as well as African Americans. I agree we need to pay back African Americans for what we done, but they aren't the only ones.

@@NwoDispatcher They are doing this to themselves and STILL they blame others that spent billions trying to help them, only on racial hatred.
Always the same mentality of gib repraishuns that end up in the pockets of their corrupt leaders.
The poor Dominicans are terrified of them and their lawlessness, forced into a massive investment on a 200+ kms border wall to avoid their gangs invading their bordering regions and take tourist hostages for ransom as it happened already a few times, which will damage the Dominican economy heavily reliant on tourism.
Dominicans started to deport them in huge numbers because their women start having children as teens and pop out a new baby every year, abusing the Dominican welfare. At 25 is common for these women to have 7 or 8 living children, despite having access to free birth control provided by the Dominican Public Healthcare System.
That's why the West is skiping this one. Let the Chinese help them. China is now a global superpower, thus they have international responsibilities.
Only solution is to resettle Haitians into African countries stop occupying a stolen territory that should be a Dominican territory
Thanks, thanks, good job
This is a great piece of journalism. I'm continually astounded by the lack of knowledge about Haitian history. Thanks. Shared.

@@andrinabroussard1972
No, it is a "Theorem" , that show how current laws and governmental systems were set up to oppress certain members of our society. It doesn't mention any color of who was the oppressors...just the reasoning of the laws.
Nothing abt history, other than why the law was made. This is WHY it's taught ONLY in LAW School
Exactly , that's why when it comes to geopolitics , I listen to what the historians say on the subject . Vast chasm between the pundits and historians perspective , but historians don't bring advertising dollars , pundits who sensationalize things do .
History does repeat it self. Keys to understanding modernity lie in historical fact. Beware of fake history creators though. Americans do not understand their own civil war, why would they care about Hati? But they should. Napoleon sold the Louisiana purchase to the US for funding to put down Hati's slave rebellion. Fast forward, Democracy Now, never discusses the role of the Castorol Corporation's destruction of Hati's rich farmlands. But does dance around the truth that the NWO in 1871, replaced traditional slavery with debt servitude. Traditional slavery required feeding, clothing, and housing of slaves, in national debt servitude, none of this required, and in default real property is gained. There is no gain at the end of a slaves life for the investment. However, global depopulation is easy when all real property and assets are seized in debt default. ALL WARS ARE BANKERS WARS
Great information
Great broadcast.
This is a snapshot of what Black America is going thru to a certain extent. It all links together.
Not even the beginning. . .
Yeah because the failure of the men to protect and provide economic independence.
Black people in America lost there homes during the building of the freeways and red summer riots and never recovered it.
Yup!
We African Americans deserve reparations now 💰💰💰
Thank you for this important interview. Gerald Horne is a wealth of historical information. The West continues to meddle in African affairs.
Keep these demons out of your affairs Africa. Tell your people to stay in your countries and fight don't come to the US this country is evil. I am black and they hate your skin color and you. They hate us on our own land most of our people know that we are not from Africa we were born and are the aboriginal indigenous native Americans on our own lands north and south America.
Africans made it possible for the west medal in there affairs Haiti didn’t ask for this. I love how Africans fail to realize it was their own who were selling other Africans and committing genocide through ethnic cleansing. We cannot negate the facts here. The slave trade would not have been so that if other Africans weren’t volunteering other Africans for slavery.
My ancestors did not asked to be slaves they are direct cause of what happens when people who look like you commit crimes against you. REPARATIONS FOR 🇭🇹✊🏾
Up until this day, France continues to exploit and tax 14 African nations for tge exact same reasons it did it to Haiti. The atrocities these evil societies have afflicted on black people is unfathomable 😈
The western world finally starting to understand why Haiti is the way it is.
Very educational ❤
0:39 please don't forget the Polish contribution. Polish soldiers helped Black slaves in fights against the white slavemasters during the Haitian Revolution, but also nowadays Poland constantly sends financial support for Haitian children, despite Poland itself is rather poor as for Europe.

@@joehoey6337 thats true Joe, and everyone should look things up, but people dont unfortunately. I can recall studying the Louisiana Purchase just a few times in US public school, but never on a high level (I took IB), and never in the context of global ramifications of the event. And this could be an issue with my locale, as I graduated grade school in Alabama. However... truly, the rebellions of enslaved and colonized people, collectively, greatly swayed both American Civil WarS and also the French Revolution, and continue to have a lasting affect on globalized geopolitical ethnic struggles - and this all is not spoken of nowhere near enough in American society. Perhaps leading to our disconnect with global struggles

@@nesq4104 no one is washing it out in modern times, it's just a relatively minor contribution. Blacks Haitians fighting against the British were around several hundred or so, hardly a decisive factor.

Just because you think it's minimized doesn't mean you have to take the extreme opposite view and pretend it was this massive vital deciding factor 🙄.
Fantastic conversation. Thank you all so much for using your platform to extend the conversation around these long known atrocities against Haiti and the Haitian people. America has been an absolute demon to the hemisphere they occupy, Haiti perhaps being the foremost victim of the American path. The time is ripe for exposure.
Yes, Haiti seems the most impacted by USA policies and actions, and Cuba is a close second; but the USA has bullied everyone in the hemisphere both economically and politically, including assassination; the only one able to resist was Canada.
I’m guessing, you mean outside of the US, Haitians were/ are the “foremost victims.”
