A Chat with the Haitian Community

I am determined --- with the inspiration, guidance and help from God --- to align our forces for the good of us all. I am interested in all, but there is a special passion within me to help the disenfrancised, (the spiritually and economically poor).

A couple weeks ago the Hispanic Community dawned the walls of the radio studio. This week the Haitian Community will spend some time with me. Pastor Roosevelt Toussaint, a Haitian, will join me to talk about the unique problems that Haitian's face when they come to the land of their dreams, ---- more particularly Wicomico County -- and what we can do to help them better assimilate into this environment. Wouldn't it be wonderful if African-Americans, Hispanics, Haitians and other such groups would address, at least, some of our common problems together. Let's begin by understanding each other; what's important to each other and the values that we cherish. Then let's develop common ground. We'll take about that this Saturday, (4/1), on WJDY 1470 AM at 9:30am.
