Immigrant from Haiti to Brazil. How are they doing?

I went to Brazil last November to introduce my boy to his Brazilian side of the family.

In the checkout counter I notice the young women had an accent.
I asked:
  • Your accent, where are you from?
  • I am from Haiti.
  • Haiti? How long have you been in Brazil?
  • Two months.
  • Two months and your speak Portuguese. That's good.
  • Are you are liking here?
  • OH YES!

This is the power of:

You work. You eat. You don't work. You don't eat. You don't eat? You die.

Following the 2010 earthquake, an estimated 85,000 Haitians migrated to Brazil between 2010 and 2017, with the Haitian population in Brazil estimated at 143,000 as of 2020.
