Honored Work: “Haiti in Crisis”
“Haiti in Crisis” is a remarkable series that takes viewers from the Miami River in Florida to the slums of Port-au-Prince to show the devastating impact of American guns and policy on the lives of Haitians. Astonishing scenes of bullet-riddled homes and sewage-strewn streets accompany gripping interviews with the victims and perpetrators of unspeakable gang violence. These deeply reported segments are a rare glimpse into the collapsing country.
