Internationally known photographer J. D. Howard is to be complemented for his recent trip to Haiti to provide an update on the recovery efforts going on. His outstanding photographs reveal that very little redevelopment has occurred since the earthquake shook that tiny island community. With much of the world's attention directed to the BP oil spill in the Gulf, the plight of the people of Haiti has been moved to the back burner of media attention. Not so with Mr. Howard who uniquely understood that it is our responsibility to keep the spotlight on people in need and our commitment to their recovery. The world owes Mr. Howard a debt of gratitude for pushing the plight of our Haitian relatives back into the front page of the Afro-American Newspaper. Thank you for your service to our community.
