Felix Augustin, Haiti's Consul General in NY will join on Wednesday, Jan. 20th.

We need your help to raise $100,000 in four nights to help the victims of Haiti's catastrophic earthquake. No country in the Western Hemisphere has been battered more than Haiti in the last 500 years—the nearly complete annihilation of its native population over two decades, a brutal slave regime, ongoing foreign military interventions over hundreds of years, brutal dictatorships supported by western powers, blockades of aid and more recently, devastating natural disasters from hurricanes to this latest earthquake.

Haitians are strong and resilient people—theirs is the first country in the world to establish an independent republic led by former slaves. They are not in the words of Pat Robertson deserving of this tragedy because of a “pact with the devil” or by the comments of Rush Limbaugh that inferred that Americans shouldn't donate to Haiti because their tax dollars already go there. As refuted by Nicholas Kristof in the New York Times (Jan. 15), the US contributes much less than other countries do per capita, even though Haiti is our poorest neighbor. So Fuck Pat Robertson and Fuck Rush Limbaugh.

100% of proceeds from this benefit will be donated to Wyclef Jean's YELE to fund the Emergency Mobile Hospitals initiative administered by the U.N. We ask that you give any way you can.
