The WikiLeaks organization has made U.S. diplomatic cables on Haiti available to weeklies Haiti Liberté and The Nation. The two publications are collaborating to present extensive stories over the coming months on what the cables reveal about the policies and practices of the U.S. government and its allies in Haiti.

We are featuring the more extensive Haiti Liberté articles. Haiti Liberté has appealed to its readers to provide financial support to allow this ambitious publishing project.
