Joni Mitchell comes to mind

Are we looking down at clouds or up?

snopes:
"Haiti’s relationship with the United States and Europe can most charitably be described as complicated. Haiti’s earliest days were characterized by oppression and opposition: the country (once the French colony of St. Domingue) was born from a successful slave insurgency and declared its independence in 1804. This beginning characterized an often-antagonistic relationship between countries that profited handsomely from African slavery (such as the United States) and Haiti. Foremost among fears about Haiti was that slaves would learn successful uprisings were possible."

What has changed? US elites fearing Haitians would be successful in actually demanding and getting a $5/day minimum wage. Can't happen.
