Return Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine!
The weekly demonstration at the Oakland Federal Building protesting the war in Iraq had Haiti as its special focus on Aug. 12. One year ago, Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine disappeared. He is presumed to have been kidnapped after a meeting with a U.S. human rights delegation. Lovinsky is a member of Fanmi Lavalas, the party of President Aristide, and a founding member of the September 30th Foundation, an organization assisting victims of the two coups against Aristide. Pierre L., organizer of Haiti Action Network, addressed the crowd, calling on Haitian authorities and the UN peacekeepers in Haiti to respond to calls for information about Lovinsky. "Standing with brother Lovinsky we are standing with all political prisoners in Haiti, in Iraq and around the world."
