Haiti Chaos, Gangs, and Crisis How did Haiti’s Gangs Become so Powerful

People, we're in Haiti today. It's a small and poorest country in America. It's located on islands between the two Americas, north and south. Less than a million people live in the capital of the state, but there are more than two hundred gangs that constantly divide the city's neighborhoods among themselves. They have their own game of thrones, with no regard for official authorities or police. The biggest gimmick that has raised all these gangs is the government itself. For the past weeks, the streets of Haiti have been very turbulent. Criminals have seized and closed the country's main airport, set fire to several police stations and stormed two prisons, releasing more than 4,000 prisoners. Police are paralyzed, people are calling the radio today with pleas for help, go figure! In this episode, let's try to understand what is happening in this small country, who has seized power there, and most importantly - show how people do not live, but survive in the midst of all this horror
