Stupid Decisions Make Haiti More Dangerous
In this episode I discuss my thoughts on the evolving kidnapping news out of Port-au-Prince and how white folks in Haiti need to take responsibility for their own bad decisions and wreckless actions in the country. I also wrestle with the complex question of what the international response should be in a situation like this.

Group Showers in So-Called Slums
In my introductory episode of The White Man’s Guide to Ruining Haiti, I share motivations for starting this podcast and take a quick look at the latest Haiti news. Then I share stories of my own pleasant experiences in some of the countries most notoriously dangerous neighborhoods, including the most refreshing (public) shower of my life. And I wrap up by complaining about white-boy-social-media-content-creators who exploit people’s fears of places like Haiti to get views. Follow me online @leerainboth on all platforms.
