Child in Haiti


Whenever you hear about Haiti, it's usually because of something frightening. It's famous for hurricanes, deforestation, poverty, drug smuggling, violence, dictatorships, voodoo and slavery. Half a century ago, when it was under the tyranny of François “Papa Doc” Duvalier and his “zombie” militia, Graham Greene called Haiti the “nightmare republic.” 

Starving people in Haiti's slums give new meaning to the 
phrase "dirt poor." Here, an 11-year-old boy shows his dirt-
streaked tongue after eating a mud cookie in Cite Soleil.

TOTALLY GROSS!
