This is Jalousie, it is practically the biggest slums off Haiti. Imagine what it must be like living in one of these "homes."
Thankfully none of these homes were destroyed in the monstrous earthquake that stroke the country in 2010.

They have finally been painted a couple years after the earthquake! Good thing to bring some color into these people's lives.
The coloured houses remind me of Santa Maria favela in Rio de Janeiro.

I couldn't imagine the lack of privacy, along with other struggles these people go through. When I saw the first photo, I thought it was a dump until I read the caption.

I know this is not the slums, but on skidrow, which is a giant homeless people camp in Los Angeles they have discovered diseases not seen since the 1800s. it is crazy.

this picture reminds of what one would see in a cartoon depiction of a slum and the colour.... breathtaking tho. It will almost feel as if its not really a slum anymore to the residents

I have been closely following a current topic which may affect thousands of Haitians currently living in the USA. It's regarding TPS and how they have only been given a six month extension, after having had this permit since the earthquake. I have been reading conditions in Haiti are still harsh and sending people back to a country in those conditions is unmoral and will only cause for harm than good. Praying for Haiti!
