Haiti has a long and brutal history of uprisings, chaos and instability. The past two years have been no exception. On July 7th, 2021, then-President Jovenel Moise was assassinated at his home in Port-au-Prince in what was widely seen as a targeted political killing. In the two turbulent years since, Haiti's political system has further spiraled into even deeper chaos, resulting in the explosive rise of gang warfare and counter-vigilante violence. In September 2023, photojournalist Giles Clarke traveled back to Port-au-Prince to document some of those displaced by the worsening gang wars.
