Hundreds of thousands of homeless Haitians are now bracing themselves for the onslaught of the rainy season, activists on the ground say the people are ill-prepared and despite the publicity and the amount of money raised, tens of thousands of people are likely to die who could have been saved, we’ll speak to a doctor who is working around the clock to save lives and call attention to the impending disaster;  and in honor of Pacifica’s sixty-first birthday, we’ll play excerpts from three generations of KPFA, including the moving broadcast of the funeral of James Chaney, one of three civil rights workers who disappeared and was later found murdered by the Klan.
