POST-SHOW RECAP:

Legacy of 1804 | Joel Dreyfuss is Back Live #LOF1804 #Haiti

This Friday night at 9PM, join me as I welcome journalist Joel Dreyfuss again, this time live. When he was last here we discussed his Washington Post article Only Haitians Can Save Haiti, the media's failure to predict Trump's win and his forthcoming book on 300 years of his family in
Haiti. See notes here. This time he will answer questions left unanswered from the last show and we will also discuss other articles such as The Helplessness of Haiti -- no we don't love this title -- and Donald Trump Discovers Haiti.

Joel has been a top editor at the leading technology magazines, a
senior editor and Tokyo bureau chief at Fortune, New York bureau chief of USA Today, executive editor of Black Enterprise and a feature writer and music critic for The Washington Post. He was managing editor of The Root from 2009 to 2011. He co-authored The Bakke Case: The Politics of Inequality. A native of Haiti and long-time New Yorker, Joel now lives in Paris, where he is completing a book about his family’s 300-year involvement with Haiti.
