@Angrygumballl You think? Will oil be found underneath Haiti? And if so, will Haitians benefit?

[HaitiXchange]

The music is called Ra Ra and originates from Haiti. The genre was imported to the Dominican Republic and is now an integral part of the Afro-Dominican music scene, where it is known colloquially as Gaga.

For more info, search for a video called "RARA PANOU EAST ORANGE NJ SOCCER GAME Sunday Oct. 11th 2009"

Am a Nigerian born in France but i live in the UK. My parents are from the Igbo tribe in Nigeria. They told me that alot of Igbo's were deported to Haiti during slavery. They always pray for their brothers in Haiti. During the earthquake in Haiti in 2010, the Igbo community here in the UK made contributions for their Haitian brothers. I love Haiti so much. In France, Haitians are not arrogant like people from Guadeloupe & Martinique. We love Haiti Kompa music, Carimi & Sweet Mickey. Nice people!

@findtruth247 Haiti still looks good. Only the city was affected

Worst country in the western hemisphere, founded by blacks over 200 years ago.

@srdarline1 I am Haitian. It has been 8 months since the earthquake. People around the world sent money for Haiti. We have 8 million unemployed people. Those people could have helped cleaning the debris. It is a crime and a shame. I am not talking about reconstruction. I am talking about cleaning. Is it the Haitian government or the World Bank who does not want to release the funds? Someone, please explain.

@SUZUKIGSXR100047 Calling us Haitians animals. Very nice. Thank God there is a God who will judge everyone soon including you my friend.

[srdarline1]

@HaitiXchange There is and always has been oil in Haiti. It'll come down to who will contol the oil. There maybe alot of blood and there may not. We'll see.
