Bitter medicine
The women of Haiti will never stop suffering until they put their heads together in solidarity and bring a woman into power. If we look at how women everywhere are suffering, we suffer from every kind of ailment. And when I say ailment I don't mean just those that cause us physical harm, but every kind of problem - disappointment, misery, unemployment, rape, violence, discrimination, etc. If we take the example of the elections that just took place, the government and CEP are trying to make us swallow the most bitter medicine but we refuse to take it. They want to control the situation in order to get the result they want. This is why they have put a woman into the run off, because they see women as soft, as weak, as soon as they begin to pressure her she’ll retreat. And when she does they have the opportunity to put in power candidate they really want. As a result women will suffer even more. Women’s rights are not respected and that’s why we need a strong woman in power. If it’s this man, Jude Celestin, who becomes our president, the women of this country will become the dirt under his feet. We want the entire world to know that he will not help our country and least of all its women.

RépondreSupprimerI'm a 56 yr old woman, Wife, Mother of 5, grandmother of 10 and I hear you loud and clear! Women must stand together ❤ everywhere across the globe, in every region, every village, city, and in every home. Together is the only way we will change how women and therefore our children we care for will be treated as equal humans in humanity. We deserve better! Unite Unite and Pray together that we will rise up and elect women into offices to bring real long lasting change. We all can spread this message to all women everywhere no matter where we are located across the world. Hold another womans hand and let her know she is important and her voice is power!
