 Kevin Pina is an independent journalist and filmmaker who risked his life over  the past two years to tell the shocking story of Haiti that the world’s  mainstream media covered up, namely the massive human rights violations that  occurred following the foreign invasion and coup that removed the elected  president Jean-Bertrand Aristide in February 2004. Pina’s riveting documentary  film, “Haiti: We  Must Kill the Bandits”, tells the story of these rights violations by a coup  regime backed by the U.S.,  Canada,  France and  the United Nations Security Council. The film also describes the heroic struggle  of the Haitian people to regain their stolen democracy, a struggle that  continues today.
  
  Pina will speak and present excerpts  from his film at the University of  British  Columbia on October 13,  12;30 pm, Student  Union Building.
