Roger Benham returned from Haiti Feb 2nd. He sets record straight on blockades set up on roads in Port au Prince...they're protection for citizens not thieves.. Suncere Ali Shakur on his effort to help 19 Haitian kids find love and security in Haiti.
MutualAidDisasterRelief.org has sent four medical teams to Haiti. We hear about their amazing work as they arrived in Haiti during the first week of the earthquake. Roger Benham describes the way U.S. Military personnel were guarding the food at one hospital, and how reports about the desperate need for security in Haiti are wildly exaggerated. He walked through city streets, drove through them at night, and he was delivering aid.
