Haiti Partners in national media

January 29, 2010

Here are two different interviews I (Kent) have done with national media about our response in Haiti.  Both shows approached the subject with a lot of respect. I recommend them for these Haiti stories — and also as two great shows when they’re doing other stories. Links here:

First, a 10-minute clip on Canadian national TV with George Stroumboulopoulos on “The Hour.” George asks about the work, about Pat Robertson, and other good questions:   http://www.cbc.ca/video/#/Shows/The_Hour/ID=1396404451

Second, a 12-minute radio interview (player at the bottom of the page after you click on the link) on NPR’s “The Story” that also includes a couple of interviews with friends in Port-au-Prince. The segment on Haiti Partners is the first 12 minutes of the hour-long show:  http://thestory.org/archive/the_story_959_Haiti_Partners_.mp3/view

Each of these interviews include new footage and interviews from Haiti after the earthquake.

Day 9

January 23, 2010

Sorry for the terrible quality. It was 3 am in the morning following day 9 after the quake (January 21). I (John Engle) was trying not to wake people up and I was shining a flashlight on my face even as I filmed myself. Not pretty and not loud enough but the summary and reflections are there if you have time and energy. Thank you for your interest!
