Noel, this is just such a lovely piece of writing of a profoundly heavenly experience you've had with the Haitian community.πŸ˜‡β€οΈ I'm so hoping that this great evil we have now running the narrative daily will be buried 6 ft under by a resounding victory at the polls November 5 so we can start the healing process. We can hope...πŸ’™πŸŒŠπŸ™πŸΌ

Thank you for sharing what must be a bittersweet memory, to remind us what is important.

Oh, it's absolutely true that the greatest fear of the racists is that if the people they subjugated ever get control, those people will treat the racists just like those racists treated them. (And truth be told, the racists would deserve it.) But that view is an unfounded assumption.

Thank you as always. My heart breaks for Springfield. So many of his worst offenses will be used as cautionary tales. And now, his rhetoric, may be haunting him again. Love you Noel. ❀️

Beautiful. I will never understand why people don't embrace diversity. How boring it would be to live with everyone else just like ourselves.

My niece has a close friend who was born in Haiti as her mother was dying. She begged the American doctor and nurse to adopt her baby girl. They did and she is now a university professor with a PHD from Michigan state. I wonder how many there are in Haiti like her. Demonizing those who just want a better life is so disgusting. I am appalled also so many still support this horrible man.

TY for writing about this, Noel. Not really a comment - just tears for the Haitian citizens in Springfield, OH who are being subjected to this GOP BS, promoted by GOP's sleaziest cowards in trump, Vance and Senate candidate Bernie Moreno.

My heart swelled reading this tribute to a group of people, who simply want to live free and reach for the stars. They deserve so much love. Thank you.

I have also met , known and worked with Haitians. In spite of the misery and danger of living on that poor poor island they were always happy, hard-working, honest and smiling. Can anyone find me a group of MAGA that can match their happiness and fortitude?
