Even in a developed country they kept us poor! Fok nou retounen lakay pou konstwi peyi'n peyi moun pa peyi'n.

Yo pap janm pale de lakay pou yo wè ki jan pou yo rekontwil men yo alèz ka blan an 😭
"They kept us poor"..I don't think so!
Such a beautiful part of Miami culture, how about collaborating with the local community into creating a vision everyone can benefit from instead of a concrete commercialized jungle with basic retail shops. They bring way more value culturally and artistically than another copycat brickle will. Be unique!
Thats not Miami culture
@@denisebycapricorn Haitians are very much a big part of Miami, Miami is a mix of Caribbeans. Hence, why Miami has pockets of Haitians, Jamaicans, Cubans, Dominicans etc…
@@denisebycapricorn I see you are a new resident of Miami.
@cristina9012 No it's has pockets of Hatians because that's where they landed.
But Haitians gentrified the area too. This are was a Black American neighborhood first. You can't run to someone else's land and then cry gentrification.
I went to the Marketplace during what were posted business hours and it was closed (6/16/24)! This is part of the reason some communities don't thrive! If you are closed, let people know! People travel far and wide to get to see this. SMH from Dallas!
Guy turned down a 1,000,000 bucks...whew...yall better go to that book store....
Beautifully done.
The place looks terrible.
Young Haitian in South Florida should know better because Little Haiti is Haitians heritage don’t gives it away be more smart
Haitians backstabbed to get that part of the city changed to Little Haiti. They will reap what they sow.

@@aubsta1 it’s true you can’t be waving no foreign flags talking about you a real Miamian
The only way for Little Haiti to remain alive is to have local political Haitian representatives apply pressure to these developers as well as city officials to keep them at bay while also creating, renovating, and restoring the business that already exists down there. That simple.
If you want a Little Haiti, you need to be in Haiti not the US.
@@amehka5416, Thank you for the feedback, however, your ignorance is laughable at best.
@@amehka5416Exactly
