Haiti’s iconic rhythm, which has brought joy, love Haiti’s iconic rhythm, which has brought joy, love, and resistance for generations, is now forever protected by the United Nations. 🇭🇹 
In a historic moment of pride for Haiti and its global diaspora, #UNESCO has officially inscribed Compas (also known as konpa or kompa) on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
The announcement, made this morning during the 20th session of the Intergovernmental Committee in Asunción, Paraguay, recognizes compas as a living symbol of Haitian identity, a music and dance genre that has brought joy, unity, and healing through decades of political turmoil, natural disasters, and exile.
“This is huge. This is our soul being recognized by the world,” said Haitian Culture Minister Emmelie Prophète Milcé moments after the decision. “Compas is the heartbeat of Haiti. It’s how we love, how we fight, how we survive, and now the entire planet knows it.”
Born in 1955, when Nemours Jean-Baptiste revolutionized Haitian méringue with a tighter, more danceable rhythm he called “compas direct,” the genre exploded across the #Caribbean, Africa, Europe, and North America. From Tabou Combo’s legendary tours in the 1970s to modern stars like Kai, Nu-Look, and Klass dominating playlists today, compas has remained Haiti’s most powerful cultural export.
Its signature elements, the driving tanbou drum, the sensual guitar skank, the brass-section punches, and the intimate couple dance have soundtracked weddings, protests, carnivals, and World Cup qualifications alike. Now, seventy years after its creation, UNESCO has declared:
“Compas is more than music, it is a vector of identity, resilience, and joy for the Haitian people and its diaspora. Transmitted from generation to generation, it embodies values of love, freedom, peace, and resistance.”
This marks Haiti’s third UNESCO intangible heritage inscription, joining #SoupJoumou (2021) and #Cassava practices (2024), making #Haiti one of the most culturally celebrated nations in Caribbean history.
From Coupé Cloué to Carimi, compas still reigns supreme in Haiti 70 years after its creation. And now, officially, it belongs to humanity. 🎥 @ohshelshel #lunionsuite
🕊️🙏🏾 In a tragedy that has deepened the sorrow of 🕊️🙏🏾 In a tragedy that has deepened the sorrow of an already grieving Haitian family and community, Frantz Fleury, the elderly father rescued by his two selfless daughters during a devastating Thanksgiving house fire, passed away on December 7. His granddaughter shared the heartbreaking news on social media, writing: "I regret to inform everyone but my grandfather has passed away as of last night as well. The funeral will be the same day as my mommy and my aunt thank you! Please pray for our family’s healing."⁠
⁠
Now, with Frantz reunited in death with his beloved daughters, the Fleury family faces the unimaginable pain of burying three loved ones together, their act of heroism forever etched in the hearts of those who knew them.⁠
⁠
This tragedy began on November 27, when flames erupted suddenly on the second floor of the family's two-story home in New Jersey. Eight relatives, including young children, had gathered for a holiday meal. Frantzia Fleury, 49, a decorated U.S. Marine Corps veteran who had proudly transitioned into a career as an X-ray technician, and her younger sister Pojanee “PJ” Fleury, 42, a visionary publisher, author, and inventor, were among those who initially evacuated as thick smoke billowed through the house.⁠
⁠
Their father, Frantz, an elderly man confined to a wheelchair and battling dementia, was unable to escape on his own. Frantzia and Pojanee rushed back into the inferno without hesitation. The sisters guided Frantz through the smoke-filled halls toward safety, but the blaze spread with ruthless speed. Overcome by flames and toxic gases, Frantzia and Pojanee were unable to make it out. Firefighters arrived, but the sisters were pronounced dead at the scene.⁠
⁠
Frantz was pulled to safety and rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. Six other family members escaped unharmed. In the weeks that followed, the community rallied around the Fleurys with an outpouring of support, including a GoFundMe that raised funds for funeral costs and recovery. As the Fleurys prepare for a unified funeral service, the family has asked for continued prayers for healing amid this profound devastation. ⁠

More than 230 Kenyan police officers touched down More than 230 Kenyan police officers touched down in #PortauPrince on Monday, injecting what we believe is fresh momentum into Haiti’s beleaguered battle against entrenched criminal gangs. The arrival marks a moment for the newly minted Gang Suppression Force (GSF), a UN Security Council-backed initiative designed to wrest control of gang-dominated territories and pave the way for stability ahead of the 2026 elections.
The GSF, succeeding the under-resourced Multinational Security Support Mission (MSS), promises a more robust response: an expanded mandate for proactive territorial reclamation, intelligence-driven operations, and coordination with Haiti’s National Police and Armed Forces.
“This deployment is not just numbers, it’s a lifeline for our people,” said Laurent Saint-Cyr, head of Haiti’s Presidential Transitional Council, in a welcoming address at Toussaint Louverture International Airport. He praised the #Kenyan officers’ discipline, honed from elite units like the General Service Unit and Rapid Deployment Unit, and underscored their role in joint patrols targeting hotspots in the West Department and Artibonite Valley.
The contingent’s integration into the GSF, the first foreign unit under its banner, comes as part of a structured rotation. Roughly 100 Kenyan personnel, wrapping up a grueling one-year stint, boarded flights home to jubilant scenes at Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Dignitaries, including Presidential Security Advisor Monica Juma and Deputy Inspector General Eliud Lagat, hailed the returnees for their “professionalism amid peril,” while emphasizing the need for seamless handovers to deny gangs any breathing room.
Kenya, which pledged leadership to the mission in 2023, now fields over 700 officers in Haiti, the most significant contributor by far. President William Ruto, fresh from a U.S. visit where he rallied support for the initiative, reaffirmed Kenya’s commitment last week, thanking the incoming Trump administration for bolstering resources. “We stand with Haiti not as outsiders, but as partners in reclaiming dignity,” Ruto stated during a peace treaty signing in Washington.

#LunionSuiteUpdate - The President of the Dominica #LunionSuiteUpdate - The President of the Dominican Republic, #LuisAbinader, described the death of 11-year-old Stephora Anne-Mircie Joseph as “painful” and “very sad” during his weekly press conference on Monday.⁠
⁠
President Abinader emphasized that the Public Ministry must conduct a thorough investigation in strict accordance with the law, regardless of the victim’s nationality.⁠
⁠
The sixth-grade student died on November 14, 2025, during a school-organized excursion to a private ranch near Santiago de los Caballeros. Preliminary findings indicate that Stephora drowned in a swimming pool at Hacienda Los Caballos while on a reward trip for high-achieving students from the Instituto Integral Leonardo Da Vinci private school.⁠
⁠
Four staff members from the school, Francisca Josefina Tavarez Vélez, Gisela González, Vilma Altagracia Vargas Morel, and Yris del Carmen Reyes Adame, have been arrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter due to alleged negligence in supervision and safety protocols.⁠
⁠
An autopsy by the National Institute of Forensic Sciences (INACIF) confirmed the cause of death as mechanical asphyxiation by drowning. The investigation remains ongoing.⁠
⁠
Haiti’s Ministère des Haïtiens Vivant à l’Étranger (MHAVE) has expressed deep concern and called for full transparency and clarification of the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.⁠

The Unité de Lutte Contre la Corruption (ULCC) has The Unité de Lutte Contre la Corruption (ULCC) has demanded that former President Michel Joseph Martelly be charged with falsifying asset declarations during his tenure from 2011-2016. Released December 8, the executive summary exposes a web of omissions, contradictions, & untraceable riches that ballooned Martelly’s fortune despite his modest official salary, fueling suspicions of embezzlement in Haiti.
The probe, sparked by a 2024 referral from civil society group Ensemble contre la Corruption, scrutinized Martelly’s entry declaration (filed upon taking office in May 2011) & exit filing (delayed until January 2018, well past the 30-day legal window). Investigators, operating under Haiti’s 2004 anti-corruption statute & 2008 asset disclosure law, uncovered glaring flaws: an undated, improperly notarized entry form; 11 undeclared bank accounts (beyond the 6 listed) holding fat balances across local institutions; & real estate holdings worth over $1 million dating back to 1992 that mysteriously evaporated without explanation.
“These declarations are incomplete and inconsistent, eroding public trust and violating transparency mandates,” the ULCC stated, recommending prosecution for false reporting, a felony punishable by up to 5 years in prison & fines. Vehicles listed in 2011 vanished by 2016 without sale records, while new acquisitions popped up mid-term, untethered to any disclosed income. Artistic gigs under Martelly’s “Sweet Micky” alias? No contracts. Conference fees? Zero tax docs. Even payments to his wife, Sophia Saint-Rémy Martelly, from the Economy Ministry during his presidency went unreported, despite totaling thousands.
Investigators flagged his wife’s pre-2011 vehicles as undeclared “indirect assets” & noted banking black holes in transactions, echoing anti-money-laundering red flags. Martelly has faced U.S. sanctions since August 2024 for allegedly facilitating cocaine routes to America & laundering proceeds through gangs, a charge his lawyer has dismissed as politically motivated. Canada blacklisted him in 2022, & a Jan 2024 warrant tied him to equipment theft at the National Center of Equipment.

@WyclefJean is doing what he’s always done best: p @WyclefJean is doing what he’s always done best: proving why he’s a living legend. 🇭🇹 The Fugees mastermind and three-time Grammy winner just dropped the long-awaited music video for his explosive single “Back From Abu Dhabi,” and it’s vintage Wyclef: high fashion, higher energy, zero compromise.⁠
⁠
Filmed across his native New Jersey (Newark and Camden) and the sun-soaked streets of Miami for those larger-than-life @RichForever moments, the visual is a flex of hip hop culture and that undeniable day-one hunger. Comedy king @DaveChappelle steals the opening scene with an intro, while @FrenchMontana and Rick Ross pull up to turn the whole thing into a boss-level celebration.⁠
⁠
Though the vision was Wyclef's, he handed the reins to the perfect director: actress and visionary @Tasha4RealSmith. He called her personally, brought her on board, and together they delivered something undeniable.⁠
⁠
When we sat down with Clef, he kept the message simple and real: ⁠”This is about the come-up. No matter where you’re from, don’t listen to the haters. Stay focused on what you’re gonna do. That’s it.”⁠
⁠
“Back From Abu Dhabi” isn’t just a single; it’s the opening statement for Wyclef’s first full-length studio album in over a decade. If this video is any indication, the project is going to be a fearless celebration of resilience, global flavor, and unapologetic ambition.⁠
⁠
Wyclef Jean isn’t just back. He never really left.⁠ 🔥

FIFA’s Saturday announcement has New England’s #Ha FIFA’s Saturday announcement has New England’s #Haitian community on fire: #Haiti will play its first World Cup match in 52 years at Gillette Stadium (renamed Boston Stadium for the tournament), facing Scotland on June 13, 2026.⁠
⁠
For thousands of #HaitianAmericans in Greater #Boston, the third-largest Haitian population in the United States, the news feels like destiny. Even though the stadium is 30 miles south in Foxborough, everyone is simply calling it “Haiti playing in Boston,” and the energy is already through the roof.⁠
⁠
#LesGrenadiers earned their spot with a dramatic qualification run, beating Costa Rica and Honduras while playing “home” games in Curaçao because of the security situation in #PortauPrince. Now they get to open the World Cup practically in the backyard of one of the biggest Haitian communities in the world. Then the ticket prices dropped, and the shock was immediate.⁠
⁠
Cheapest seats for Haiti vs Scotland start at $325, with many tickets running $600–$950. Haitian TikTokers and Instagram content creators wasted no time: the timeline is flooded with reaction videos of people staring at the price list in disbelief, screaming, crying-laughing, and posting captions like “52 years to see Haiti in the World Cup and FIFA hits us with THESE prices???”⁠
⁠
Still, the community isn’t backing down. Boston Haitians have waited half a century for this moment. Expensive or not, on June 13, 2026, Gillette Stadium is going to be packed with blue-and-red flags and thousands of voices singing La Dessalinienne louder than ever. ⁠

What should have been one of the proudest moments What should have been one of the proudest moments in an immigrant’s life, taking the Oath of Allegiance to become a U.S. citizen, turned into heartbreak for dozens of people at Boston’s Faneuil Hall last week.⁠
⁠
Several immigrants who had completed years of background checks, interviews, and tests arrived ready to finalize their naturalization process, only to be told they could not proceed because of their country of origin. According to multiple reports, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has instructed its employees to pause all immigration and naturalization proceedings for nationals of 19 countries deemed “high-risk,” including #Haiti, Afghanistan, Cuba, Venezuela, & Somalia.⁠
⁠
The decision, part of a nationwide directive quietly circulated to USCIS field offices, has stalled both green card and citizenship approvals for thousands of people. The Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition reported that five people who had already been approved for citizenship were informed at the last minute that their oath ceremonies had been canceled. Another 40 individuals currently in the process now face indefinite delays.⁠
⁠
One Haitian woman, who has lived in the U.S. for decades & obtained her green card in the early 2000s, showed up to Faneuil Hall unaware that her ceremony had been canceled. According to her legal representative, officers began asking attendees for their countries of origin. Those from certain nations were then “plucked out of line” and told they would not be allowed to proceed.⁠
⁠
For many, the location only added to the emotional blow. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu called the events “deeply painful,” noting that they occurred in Faneuil Hall, a site known as the ‘cradle of liberty’ & a symbol of America’s democratic values. “It’s despicable and deeply painful to see this happening across the country,” Wu said.⁠
⁠
Immigrant advocates and civil rights groups say the policy unfairly targets Black and Brown immigrants, particularly those from African & Caribbean nations. While the incident in Boston drew national attention, reports of similar cancellations have surfaced in New York, Florida, Texas, & California. #lunionsuite
Dominican authorities have arrested four staff mem Dominican authorities have arrested four staff members from the Instituto Leonardo Da Vinci on charges of involuntary manslaughter in the drowning death of 11-year-old #Haitian honor student Stephora Anne-Mircie Joseph, who died during a school reward trip that violated long-standing safety regulations.
Stephora, a sixth-grader celebrated for her straight-A grades, drowned on November 14 in an unsupervised pool at Hacienda Los Caballos, a recreational ranch in Gurabo. The preliminary autopsy report lists the cause of death as mechanical asphyxia by drowning.
Investigators have uncovered multiple safety lapses at the heart of the tragedy. The outing, intended as a reward for top-performing students, defied a 2009 nationwide ban by the Ministry of Education on school aquatic excursions, a measure implemented 15 years ago to prevent such risks. With nearly 87 students present, adult supervision was critically inadequate, & the pool area lacked lifeguards, restricted access, rescue equipment, & first-aid kits.
Attorney General Reynoso directed prosecutors & the National Directorate for Children, Adolescents, & Family to expedite a criminal probe, leading to the swift arrests of the four school employees who were responsible for organizing and supervising the group.
Stephora's mother, Lovelie Joseph Raphael, said she rushed to a local hospital after being told her daughter was ill with vomiting, only to endure hours of waiting before being instructed to retrieve her child's body from the National Institute of Forensic Sciences in Santo Domingo.
Represented by attorneys Mena & Salazar, Joseph Raphael has filed a formal complaint with the Attorney General's Office, accusing the school & the venue of "extreme negligence." The family is demanding a fully transparent investigation, immediate release of all available evidence & security-camera footage.
The Regional Education Director has acknowledged that the institute failed to comply with mandatory safety protocols, prompting an internal review. The case has amplified a nationwide debate on student safety, particularly in schools serving #Haitian immigrant families across the #DominicanRepublic. #lunionsuite
In a night of confetti, champagne showers, and unb In a night of confetti, champagne showers, and unbridled South Florida passion, Fabrice “Fafà” Picault etched his name into #Haitian and MLS lore as @InterMiamiCF captured its first-ever Major League Soccer championship. The 34-year-old #HaitianAmerican international and proud member of the Haiti national team was part of the Herons’ 3–1 triumph over the Vancouver Whitecaps FC in the 2025 MLS Cup Final at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale on December 6.⁠
⁠
The victory marked Inter Miami’s crowning achievement in a season already defined by dominance, a campaign that saw the Herons defend their 2024 Supporters’ Shield title and power through the playoffs with emphatic wins, including a 5–1 dismantling of New York City FC in the Eastern Conference Final. For Picault, it was both redemption and reward: a first MLS Cup after nearly a decade in the league, with stints across Philadelphia Union, FC Dallas, Houston Dynamo, Nashville SC, and, ironically, the vanquished Whitecaps.⁠
⁠
#LionelMessi, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner and Inter Miami’s talismanic captain, orchestrated the final with his trademark artistry, dictating tempo, threading passes, and setting up two of Miami’s three goals en route to being named MLS Cup MVP.⁠
⁠
Signed by Inter Miami in early 2025 on a one-year deal with a club option for 2026, Picault arrived as a depth signing but quickly became an invaluable contributor, offering experience, energy, and width in attack. His pace and pressing complemented Miami’s star-driven offense, earning him praise from teammates and supporters.⁠
⁠
Off the pitch, @fafapicault Haitian heritage continued to shine. Earlier in 2025, he earned a call-up to Haiti’s national team for their FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign, appearing in key matches before an injury sidelined him late in the year. Haiti went on to make history, clinching a 2–0 victory over Nicaragua in November to qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.⁠
⁠
For Haiti, a nation of millions of soccer-loving fans, Picault’s story is a symbol of pride, perseverance, and possibility. Alongside international teammates, Picault stands as part of a generation restoring belief in Haitian football. #lunionsuite
In a candid sit-down with @Indepthwithgrahambensin In a candid sit-down with @Indepthwithgrahambensinger, #HaitianAmerican singer Jason Derulo talked about his sexual harassment lawsuit that he says derailed his career & forced a profound shift in how he now approaches professional relationships.⁠
⁠
Born Jason Desrouleaux to Haitian immigrant parents in Miramar, Florida, Derulo has long embodied the resilience of his heritage, rising from a self-taught performer to a global icon with hits that have amassed billions of streams, but in the Bensinger interview, the artist revealed how one accusation nearly toppled it all, costing him millions in lost brand deals and reshaping his trust in collaborative spaces.⁠
⁠
When Bensinger referenced the lawsuit, noting it had been “dismissed.” Derulo’s response was immediate and unflinching: “Never work with women.” Derulo elaborated with a mix of wry humor and raw vulnerability. “There’s truth in every joke. But it’s a sad truth,” he said. “I will never be alone in a room with a woman that I work with…” He framed it not as resentment but as a necessary safeguard, noting allegations can spread unchecked, regardless of their veracity.⁠
⁠
In October 2023, Gibson, a member of the R&B group Ceraadi, sued Derulo, his label Future History, and Atlantic Records in the LA Superior Court. She alleged that after Derulo signed her to a recording deal in late 2021,  promising a mixtape, album, and a feature from him, he pressured her into sexual favors during late-night studio sessions. When she refused, Gibson claimed, Derulo grew hostile, terminated her contract in September 2022, & sabotaged her career. The suit included graphic details, such as an alleged demand for “goat skin & fish scales,” a phrase Gibson interpreted as a veiled reference to ritualistic sex acts and accusations of intimidation.⁠
⁠
Derulo swiftly denied the claims in an Instagram video, calling them “completely false & hurtful.” In April 2024, a Los Angeles judge dismissed it on the grounds of a contract clause requiring disputes to be heard in New York. A second dismissal followed in Nevada later that year, with Derulo’s team hailing it as vindication of the “blatantly false & baseless” allegations. #lunionsuite
