[Peace-discuss] Beverly Bell: "7.0 on the Horror Scale - Notes on the Haitian Earthquake"

[Robert Naiman]

Following is the log of Beverly Bell during the first ten days after
the earthquake in Haiti.
Beverly first went to Haiti as a teenager. Since then she has
dedicated most of her life to working for democracy, women's rights,
and economic justice in that country.  She founded or co-founded six
organizations and networks dedicated exclusively to supporting the
Haitian people, including the Lambi Fund of Haiti. She worked for both
presidents Jean-Bertrand Aristide and Rene Preval and wrote Walking on
Fire: Haitian Women's Story of Survival and Resistance (Cornell
University Press, 2001).  Today she is associate fellow at the
Institute for Policy Studies and runs the economic justice group Other
Worlds.
