1 February 12, 2019 Protest Timeline Monday, February 11, :15am: sporadic gunfire and police sirens. No city power, neighborhood in darkness. 5:25am: we lose power. Macknel starts diesel generator. Shortly after sunrise, we will turn it off to preserve fuel. This photo was taken on Saturday. It shows the intensity of the protests. Scene such as this happened all over the city. 5:47am: I m deeply concerned about running out of diesel fuel. As soon as this crisis passes, we must buy a large drum to store diesel fuel so we are in this position again. We spoke about it weeks ago but did not take any action. When we do run out of diesel fuel, we can hook the small generator up and have it feed energy to my office. We will also run out of propane gas. We can survive by cooking with charcoal it will he harder for the cooks and take more time, and will also pollute the air. We also need to buy extra propane tanks. 6:02am: At least four people have been killed from Thursday through Sunday, and dozens more injured. A 14-year old boy was shot and killed while standing on the sidelines of a protest. 14 policemen were wounded over the weekend. We are living in a war zone.

2 Photos from the protests are starting to appear in various news websites. The above photo was taken on Sunday during the supposed suspension of the protests so people could shop for food. Faced with extreme poverty and 15 percent inflation over the past two years, Haitians were infuriated by a report calling out more than a dozen former ministers and senior officials for

3 economic mismanagement and possible misappropriation of development funds loaned to the country from Venezuela since :15am: The sun is up and so are many kids so we have light and noise. From the balcony we can see a section of the main road below. Usually there is a steady stream of cars, trucks, and taptaps. Not this morning. No movement is sight. People are staying in their home and businesses are closed. I pray we have no medical emergencies. 6:47am: Just spoke with Mackenson about diesel fuel conservation. He said once the sun is higher in the sky, he will switch to solar power and turn off the diesel generator. It looks like a bright, sunny day, which is good. Yesterday, I should have gone to the Sisters and see if I could borrow some of their store diesel fuel. The upper class can ride out a week-long shut down of the city; they have plenty of reserve fuel and food. 7:02am: For desperately poor Haitians, horizons don t disappear because life dealt them a bad hand. The press forward, laughing and hoping. 8:50pm: This image taken on Sunday captures the fury and anger. 9:05am: The following comes from Michael Casey, a Trappist monk from Australia. Jean Pierre de Caussade, an eighteenth-century spiritual writer, is known for his emphasis on the role of abandonment in the spiritual life. By this he meant giving oneself into the hands of the God who can write straight on crooked lines, trusting in the planning of Divine

4 Providence. Abandonment is not the same thing as resignation. It is not a lethal fatalism that withdraws from active involvement and allows one s natural optimism to plummet. Abandonment is a deliberate act of trust, giving greater priority to what we know by faith of God s benevolence in our regard over what appears to be a looming or present disaster. 9:10am: Billy said we need to go to the pharmacy near Peace Hospital. We are debating whether we should risk it or not. 9:35am: We decided not to go out. First, there was no guarantee the pharmacy would be open. Second, withholding the medicine would not but the child in a life-threatening situation. Billy heard from Michelle, our mechanic. He was driving north to Cabaret when protestors shot and hit his car. He was unharmed. The protestors who are inclined toward violence are at the fringe of protestors. Most poor Haitian deplore the violence. Billy called Junior, our tap-tap driver to see if he knew where we could get diesel fuel. Junior lives in Petionville. He said there was on place in Peguyville, which is adjacent to Petionville, that has diesel fuel. But they have double the price. Billy said we would pay the higher price. Junior is going to go get some and try to deliver to us. Hopefully, protestors will not harm an unoccupied tap-tap. 10:05am: A collection of images garnered from a few news websites.

11 11:05am: Hard to believe Junior just arrived with five jugs of diesel fuel. He paid 5,000 gourdes for them (about $60), which is double the normal cost. That amount of fuel should last us the week. We gave Junior $25 for getting us the fuel. Tap-tap drivers can t make any money during the shutdown. 3:15pm: just heard a loud burst of gunfire it sounded very close. Kids get nervous. 5:09pm: hearing lots of police sirens for the last 10 minutes something is up. 5:16pm: my office is very hot. Miss the air conditioning. Just went to the balcony for some fresh air and I saw a plume of thick, black some rising high in the sky not far from the airport. Perhaps that is the reason for the police sirens. More gunfire rang out. Overnight, the city power was cut and we lost power. I woke at 3:30am and woke Mackenson up to have him turn on the diesel generator so that the refrigerators and freezer could function.
