Max Rameau is the foremost and most publically known activist with Take Back the Land. He also leads the Center for Pan-African Development, and has worked extensively with Brothers of the Same Mind and Cop Watch in the past. At the cusp of the housing crisis, Rameau invited several other South Florida-based black activists to meetings held at Marleine Bastien’s office, a group that later became known as the Black Response to the Crisis Group. The group decided on taking action in the form of taking over public land and asserting black political leadership over that land. The first action taken was the erecting of the Umoja Village Shantytown, and later housing liberations and eviction defenses. As Take Back the Land progressed to the national level and took on the shape of a movement, Rameau remained its most vocal proponent and figurehead. He has since relocated to Washington D.C. to take on the role as an alternative voice on the housing crisis more strongly. Rameau is a Pan-Africanist by worldview and in political theory, although he no longer frames Take Back the Land as a Pan-Africanist or Black nationalist project.

“Andrew Giel’s first trip to Haiti with the U.S. Navy sub tender USS Bushnell in 1956: Guantanamo Bay to Port -au-Prince for two days. He later made two longer trips from Chicago in 1959 and 1963 including visits to Jacmel and Cap Haitien to see the nearby Citadelle of Henry Christophe. While in Haiti, Andrew made numerous photos with his Leica III F camera and bought dozens of postcards. Haiti was a fantastic place to visit in those years with great cultural impact and tourist interest. One of Haiti’s misfortunes (aside from bad government, earthquakes and hurricanes) was that it had been largely ignored by the international community and thus received few visitors during what could have been its golden years of tourism. It is unlikely that any of the fragile Port-au-Prince buildings shown in these photos could have survived the 2010 earthquake.” -Andrew Giel
