Haiti - Social : Odette Roy Fombrun appeals against immorality
14/03/2017 09:17:24

Author of numerous instructional books, of a collection of good citizenship and several novels, named the "National Living Treasure" in 2009, the former Haitian teacher and feminist activist widely known and respected, Odette Roy Fombrun, who will celebrate his 100th birthday on June 13, if God want, appeals to the population against immorality.

Appeal from Odette Roy Fombrun :
"After my cry of alarm at the invasion of our cities by all sorts of rubbish, I find myself obliged to utter a new cry faced the alarming rise of the mass of immorality, of the affront to decency and good morals, to good manners, to the respect for others and private property. We must absolutely restrain this new degradation and rise in force to defend our moral values.

The vulgar and degrading lyrics used to make youth sing and dance or to amuse each other on social networks must be hampered by a just anger and an uprising against immorality.

Where are our moral institutions? Our people of the Church, all religions confused? Media and communications leaders? The parents ? Professors ? The artists ?

Make your voices heard! Do not keep silent!
Society also has a duty to require its legislators to put in place relevant laws that protect against the pernicious and unreflective advances of hatred, defamation, division, disrespect of essential values, be the foundation of any self-respecting society.

How can we can hope to see a balanced and productive youth grow if it begins and evolves in a depraved environment without moral instruction, without the sense of beauty, truth and good ?

Citizens, let us wake up before it's too late. Let us fight against all these forms of confusion which destroy our physical and moral health. Let us all work together to safeguard our sick environment and support with all our strength all the men and women of good which arm themselves with courage to openly lead this just struggle and make us a life of dignified people.

Shout out loud :

Shout out loud:

Down with rubbish!
Down with immorality!
Long live the Republic of Haiti, clean, healthy and prosperous !"
