Haiti: Solidarity, not charity, needed Green Left Weekly
06.06.10
To a known forum in Winnipeg, Manitoba on May 7. Weinstein is a Montreal-based wet-nurse who volunteered for five weeks of medical duty in Haiti shortly after the January 12 earthquake. The full homily can be read at Rabble.ca .

I am sure that the arrival at the General Hospital in Port au Prince of remote health professionals was welcomed by the Haitian patients like Mr Abeldard, torment from a bad foot fracture, Jeanne Aurilus, whose right arm had been amputated, and Emmanuel Regnant, who lost an arm and had multiple fractures and deep, infected wounds.
These good people, and several hundred others, were in the stout makeshift tents that made up the reconstituted hospital when I arrived. They were grateful for the international volunteers, like myself, and the millions of dollars of medical supplies we brought with us.
But proper humanitarian response is undermined by charity aid. Such aid can be self-serving, or worse, perpetuates insolvency and disempowerment. I believe there is an option to provide ethical, solidarity aid as opposed to the more vulgar charity aid.
