Description:
This week on From the Vault we present historical recordings on Haiti, where on Tuesday, January 12, 2010, a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck that was centered very close to Port-au-Prince, the capitol city that now lies in ruins. Our first selection is from a recording of Jean-Bertrand Aristide from 1990, being interviewed just months before his election as President of Haiti. Then we feature a voodoo ceremony recorded with special permission by Pacifica producer Verna Gilles in 1975. Finally, KPFK host Margaret Prescod outlines the ousting of Aristide in 2004 on a special edition of the Sojourner Truth radio program.
From the Vault is proudly presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project.
