The month of May is
recognized as Haitian Heritage Month in South Florida. All month long the
Haitian Diaspora has been proudly representing the Red and Blue and sharing our
culture as the world excitedly looks on. Since THE hurricane of 2008 and the
7.0 earthquake of 2010 ravaged Haiti, the small French and Creole speaking
island has been in the public eye. With a newly elected President and a new
dedication to establishing Haiti as a premiere tourist destination, the
negative perception of Haiti has slowly been changing.
