Haitian Women between repression and democracy contains selected articles from Ayiti Fanm, an all-Creole newspaper. It was published for the first time in 1991, just one month before the September 29 coup orchestrated by General Raoul Cédras against President Jean Bertrand Aristide, Haiti's first freely and consitutionally elected President. Ever since, we have lived to experience and denounce the situation of violence our population has been subjected to as well as its consequences on our society's opportunities for a better future.
