The essence o f the President's
policy is dear. The lives o f the Haitian
refugees just don’ t matter. They are
black, mostly poor, and they come from
a country with no o il, natural resources
or strategic value. The only “ assets''
these Haitians have to o l lei is a hunger
for freedom and an enormous measure
o f courage. I t ’ s sad dial the President o f
the United Slates places so little value
on these classically American charac­
teristics. M r. Bush’ s policy regarding
the Haitian refugees is based upon a
foundation o f crystal-clear racism. His
executive order is one o f the most

obscene and inhuman decisions made
by an American President in recent
memory.
Recently, Katherine Dunham, the
world renowned dancer and choreog­
rapher, ended a long hunger strike in
support o f the H a itia n refugees.
Dunham, w ell into her 80’ s and in
tailing health, was asked why she would
risk lierow n life for thiscause. She said
that she wanted to make the world
understand the struggle o f some the
bravest people she had ever met. She
went on to criticize the President for
tailing to protect those who were strug­
gling for democracy in our own “ hack
yard.”
The courage, humanity and d ig ­
nity o f the Haitian refugees is clear.
What remains to be seen is whether or
not the President o f the United States
w ill overcome his “ color problem” and
see these people for who they really
arc. Their struggle is our struggle. I
urge Mr. Bush to search his conscience.
I f he docs, he w ill come to the conclu­
sion that these people deserve our sup­
port and safe haven. The Haitian refu­
gees deserve the same chance for free­
dom that has been extended to other
oppressed people. Instead, the Presi­
dent is sending them back to certain
peril.
