A Haitian boy watches fireman race across street to help douse fires after Haitians set downtown Port-au-Prince, the capital, on fire in protest of perceived rigged presidential elections in January 1988. Elections in November 1987 were cancelled due to terrible widespread violence. The army put forward Lesly Manigat, who won the elections despite a very low voter turnout. He was ousted in a coup d’etat four months later. Framed print.
