      They pull on their death smocks and pass around rum. The men on the burial team steel themselves for the grisly task ahead. http://nyti.ms/2AVOVIy pic.twitter.com/YSYcZ6rfeH

      They have come to collect the abandoned dead in Port-au-Prince. Stacked up in cellar-like rooms, these are the bodies of people whose families can’t afford funerals. http://nyti.ms/2AVOVIy pic.twitter.com/I11T4Wfr4y

          Before the burial team stepped in, forgotten bodies were dumped in the desert. These men offer them some dignity. http://nyti.ms/2AVOVIy pic.twitter.com/C1loPJPely

          All of the members of the burial team grew up poor. Many were orphans. They see themselves in the bodies they pick up, particularly the children. http://nyti.ms/2AVOVIy pic.twitter.com/nGkFvDTwJD

          Christmas is their busiest time. Then, they can’t stand the idea of leaving rotting bodies behind, so they take as many as 120 at once. http://nyti.ms/2AVOVIy pic.twitter.com/cp92Y8dMYC

          Thanks @nytimes for this exposé. I question the motives of mega churches whose theology excludes these poor. I realize the Haitain government previous failures under dictator President François Duvalier (Popa Doc) and Baby Doc, but the poor should not suffer in life and in death.

          Perhaps if more than 3% of earmarked Clinton Foundation money had actually made it to Haiti they would be in a better place now.
