  • Gentrification at the heart of South Florida Haitians’ cultural cradle highlights assimilation quandary
    Wherever you go in Little Haiti, new developments with “for lease” signs greet you and construction sites dot the neighborhood as gentrification fully settles in. In this Haitian Times mini-documentary, three small business owners share their experiences of striving to keep alive the culture whose name Little Haiti bears.

    Even in a developed country they kept us poor! Fok nou retounen lakay pou konstwi peyi'n peyi moun pa peyi'n.

    I went to the Marketplace during what were posted business hours and it was closed (6/16/24)! This is part of the reason some communities don't thrive! If you are closed, let people know! People travel far and wide to get to see this. SMH from Dallas!

    Such a beautiful part of Miami culture, how about collaborating with the local community into creating a vision everyone can benefit from instead of a concrete commercialized jungle with basic retail shops. They bring way more value culturally and artistically than another copycat brickle will. Be unique!

    The only way for Little Haiti to remain alive is to have local political Haitian representatives apply pressure to these developers as well as city officials to keep them at bay while also creating, renovating, and restoring the business that already exists down there. That simple.
