iciHaiti - 2025/2026 : End-of-year message from Jean-Henry Céant 23/12/2025 09:30:04
Message from Jean-Henry Céant : "[...] Between bullets and exile, displaced persons camps, wounded dignity, diplomatic slaps, state silence, and abandonment, the Holidays arrived without Peace or bread... "In the course of my memory, Christmas arrived, the New Year on borrowed time, We didn't see Christmas coming. Between bullets and exile, displaced persons camps, wounded dignity, diplomatic slaps, state silence, and abandonment, the Holidays arrived without Peace or bread. December, a month proclaimed to be one of generosity, but this year, in Pont-Sondé as elsewhere, there is no real cause for pride. All is misery and poverty for a people who groan in the mockery of their night, caught between life and death. Haiti walks without a compass. We flee the neighborhoods, we flee the country, we flee even the hope that denies us. Migration is no longer an option, it's an emergency. They govern from absence, cultivate indifference. I am no longer moved by the fir tree, redolent with extraordinary fragrances, where green branches conceal hunger and offer us survival in a floral bouquet. Yet the wine, capricious as it is, is drunk with the flavor of bread devoured like seedless raisins. Christmas is here, surely. But the New Year promises to be tumultuous, terrifying, chaotic, uncertain, and to give up would be to die twice. Do we have one last breath, one last responsibility? Yes: let us stand together, brothers and sisters, partners in our beautiful story, facing the future and our memories. Merry Christmas 2025 and Happy New Year 2026 Jean-Henry Céant, December 2025 IH/ iciHaiti
