Boston's Haitian-American community grapples with home country's turmoil

Greater Boston has long been home to one of the largest Haitian immigrant communities in the United States. The group has been growing in the last year as Haitian families flee violence, lawlessness and political chaos in the island nation. Gangs now control much of Haiti's capital, Port-Au-Prince, and have shut down the airport.

We look at the trauma through the eyes of Boston's local Haitian community with Patrick Sylvain, poet and professor at Simmons University, and Carline Desire, executive director of the Association of Haitian Women in Dorchester.
