excerpts from 2nd public letter about the land July 2002

The land for the vision has been chosen, studied, surveyed, mapped, (see drawing) printed out, built as a 3D topographical relief model and is now in the hands of a group of dedicated architects and engineers committed to this patriotric (their own definition) work of giving form and putting on the flesh of each historical site designated in the actual village.

Land is marked by much history here in Haiti. Family inheritances are invested in the very soil their ancestors shed their blood on and have divided their land for the past 200 years providing a means for making a living for their children, their children's children and for generations.

The land being bought for "N a Sonje" is basically depleted farm land, pastureland or has simply been abandoned.

this is absurd. and racist. and proves to me how greedy and nonsensical most white people are, not to mention inconsiderate. kudos for taking advantage of a nation so poor that they probably won't object to this. though i'm sure once word gets out, this'll never happen. one will never understand what it's like to be a slave, and why would they want to? idiots.
