With over 140 hours of nonstop cooking already und

With over 140 hours of nonstop cooking already under her belt, Haitian chef, Leen Excellent, is closing in on the final stretch of her historic 192-hour cooking marathon. As of today, Tuesday, April 15, she is just hours away from breaking the #Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual, a challenge that she began on Monday, April 7, in Saint-Denis, #France.🇭🇹📣🙌🏾⁠
⁠
If all goes according to plan, Chef Leen will cross the finish line later today, surpassing the current record of 119 hours, 57 minutes, and 16 seconds set by Irish chef Alan Fisher in 2023. She will also outlast the 140-hour cooking attempt by Liberian chef Evette Quoibia, which was recently completed in March 2025.⁠
⁠
From the heart of her kitchen, Leen has been preparing various Haitian dishes, including griot, diri kole, and soupe joumou, among others, throughout this grueling challenge. Her TikTok livestream (Leenexcellent) has been the heartbeat of her journey, giving fans worldwide an up-close view of her culinary feats. With millions of likes and counting, her livestream has become a virtual celebration of Haiti, as supporters from all corners cheer her on. The Haitian diaspora has rallied around her, calling this “an unprecedented culinary performance” and offering constant encouragement.⁠
⁠
The energy at Anba le Pont has been palpable, with crowds of supporters dancing, singing, and waving Haitian flags in solidarity. It’s become more than just a world record attempt; it’s a cultural celebration of unity and pride.⁠
⁠
While Guinness allows a five-minute break per hour, which Chef Leen has been able to accumulate for short rest periods, the physical and mental challenge of cooking for 192 hours straight is no small feat; the emotional toll of this monumental effort cannot be understated.⁠
⁠
As the clock ticks down to the end of this grueling journey, she will submit her evidence to Guinness World Records, a process that may take weeks for full verification. No matter the outcome, Chef Leen’s achievement has already earned her the hearts of millions. So if you haven’t yet, tune in to her TikTok to cheer her on during these final hours. #lunionsuite

A federal judge in Massachusetts has officially bl

A federal judge in Massachusetts has officially blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to terminate deportation protections and work permits for more than 500,000 people, including Haitians who lawfully entered the United States under the #CHNV humanitarian parole program, commonly known as the #BidenProgram.⁠ 🎉🥳🇭🇹
⁠
U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani issued the ruling on Monday, just days before the administration’s planned April 24 deadline to end the program. Her decision protects migrants from #Cuba, #Haiti, #Nicaragua, and #Venezuela by allowing them to remain in the U.S. as they continue to pursue immigration benefits.⁠
⁠
Although the Department of #HomelandSecurity argued that it holds broad authority over parole decisions, Judge Talwani ruled that the agency’s attempt to terminate legal status without individualized review was not exempt from court oversight. In her 41-page order, she emphasized that #DHS cannot arbitrarily revoke previously granted parole and work authorizations from individuals already residing in the country.⁠
⁠
The case #SvitlanaDoevNoem was filed last month by Justice Action Center and Human Rights First on behalf of CHNV humanitarian parole recipients and their U.S.-based sponsors. Haitian Bridge Alliance joined the case to challenge the administration’s effort to dismantle multiple humanitarian programs, including Uniting for Ukraine, Central American Minors Parole, Military Parole-in-Place, and others.⁠
⁠
The plaintiffs also challenge DHS’s directive to stop processing pending applications and eliminate alternative pathways that could provide similar relief. “This ruling is a major step toward justice for the hundreds of thousands of people who trusted this legal pathway and followed every rule,” said Karen Tumlin, founder of Justice Action Center.⁠
⁠
Guerline Jozef of #HaitianBridge Alliance called the ruling a vital win for immigrant communities: “Hundreds of thousands of our neighbors will sleep easier tonight. This decision pushes back against efforts to criminalize and marginalize our people. We’re proud to stand with the communities we serve in the fight for dignity, freedom, and lawful protection.” #lunionsuite

A Haitian mother was killed and her daughter critically injured after a brutal stabbing inside their North Lauderdale home early Saturday morning.⁠
⁠
Just before 2 a.m. on April 12, Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a residence where they found Maguy Pouye and her daughter, Isabelle Joseph, suffering from multiple stab wounds. According to officials, a man had broken into the home and violently attacked both women before fleeing.⁠
⁠
Pouye was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. Her daughter Isabelle was rushed into emergency care and remains in critical condition.⁠
⁠
The suspect, 56-year-old Vital Joseph, was quickly identified, and an arrest warrant was issued. With the help of the Florida Highway Patrol, the Palm Bay Police located and arrested Joseph later that night. He is now in custody at the Brevard County Jail and faces charges including first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, and burglary with battery.⁠
⁠
Authorities say Joseph had previously been in a relationship with Pouye and once lived at the same address where the incident occurred. Deputies have not confirmed whether he is related to Isabelle Joseph.⁠
⁠
In the aftermath of the tragedy, Isabelle launched a GoFundMe campaign (Help Honor the Life of Maguy Pouye and Support Her Children⁠) to help cover the funeral expenses for her mother.
Our hearts go out to the Joseph and Pouye families. We are keeping Isabelle in our prayers as she continues to fight for her recovery.

Blue Origin made history Monday morning as it succ

Blue Origin made history Monday morning as it successfully launched and landed its first all-female crew aboard the New Shepard rocket, marking the company’s 11th human spaceflight and the first all-women mission to space since 1963.
The six-member crew included pop superstar #KatyPerry, “CBS Mornings” co-host #GayleKing, #LaurenSánchez, a journalist, philanthropist, and the fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ former NASA rocket scientist #AishaBowe, civil rights advocate #AmandaNguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The NS-31 mission lifted off from Blue Origin’s launch site in West# Texas at approximately 9:30 a.m. ET, carrying the crew 62 miles above Earth’s surface to the Kármán line, the internationally recognized boundary of space. Cheers and excitement could be heard from inside the capsule as it crossed into the final frontier. The crew experienced a few minutes of weightlessness before safely returning to Earth.
The flight marks several significant milestones: Aisha Bowe became the first #Bahamiannin in space. Amanda Nguyen became the first #Vietnamese and Southeast Asian woman to travel to space, and the crew became the first all-women team to fly to space in over 60 years, following Soviet cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova’s historic solo mission in 1963.
Upon landing, the astronauts expressed their emotions and reflected on the journey. Katy Perry kissed the ground and lifted a daisy skyward to honor her daughter, describing the journey as profoundly emotional and spiritually connecting. Gayle King expressed gratitude for the profound experience, reflecting on the peacefulness of space and calling for more empathy and kindness on Earth. Lauren Sánchez emphasized the importance of storytelling and diverse representation in space exploration.
Here’s how the launch morning unfolded:
- 8:45 a.m. ET: Crew arrival
- 8:55 a.m. ET: Entered capsule and strapped in
- 9:06 a.m. ET: Hatch closed
- 9:30 a.m. ET: Liftoff
- 9:55 a.m. ET: Capsule landed and hatch opened

PHOTOS : The highly anticipated film Know Me made

PHOTOS : The highly anticipated film Know Me made its debut at this year’s @miamifilm Festival, delivering a bold and deeply human retelling of one of South Florida’s most infamous news stories.
The film revisits the 2012 incident involving #HaitianAmerican Rudy Eugene, who attacked a homeless man on the MacArthur Causeway and was fatally shot by police. Branded the “Miami Zombie” by global media outlets, Eugene’s story was sensationalized and steeped in speculation, with early reports falsely linking the attack to bath salts. A toxicology report later revealed Eugene only had traces of cannabis in his system.
While the story is widely known, it’s deeply personal for filmmaker and Miami native #EdsonJean. Jean is close friends with Eugene’s real-life brother, Marckenson Charles, the two met in college while studying acting and quickly bonded as the only Haitian Americans in their class. That friendship gave Jean a rare and intimate perspective on a story often stripped of humanity.
In #KnowMe, Jean reclaims that humanity by telling the story from the viewpoint of Eugene’s family. He intentionally changes the characters’ names out of respect, but the emotion remains unfiltered. Working closely with his creative partner, Jean crafted a narrative grounded in truth, respect, and a desire to confront the cultural stigma surrounding mental health.
Following the screening, audience members took part in a compelling Q&A with the film’s cast. The conversation focused on the portrayal of mental health in the Haitian community, the silence that often surrounds early diagnosis, and how generational trauma can be passed down when these issues are ignored. Cast members spoke passionately about the responsibility of artists to shine light on these difficult conversations and how Know Me does exactly that.
More than a film, Know Me is a restorative act peeling back the headlines to reveal the complexity, humanity, and untold truth behind a tragedy that shook Miami.

Earlier this week, we shared the powerful story behind the celebration at YS Firehouse in Yellow Springs, #Ohio, where @DaveChappelle brought together international superstar @WyclefJean and Haitian-American comedian @Se_joe for a night dedicated to uplifting the state’s Haitian community. 🇭🇹🇭🇹 ⁠
⁠
The event was more than just entertainment; it was a public stand against hate following a wave of dangerous misinformation. Back in September, baseless rumors, pushed by figures like #DonaldTrump and #JDVance, falsely accused #Haitians of harming pets. These lies sparked threats and backlash, especially in Springfield, where an estimated 10,000 to 15,000 #Haitian immigrants have made their home. ⁠
⁠
Chappelle, a longtime advocate for community and truth, helped create a space of support and solidarity. #Wyclef used his performance to celebrate Haitian culture with pride, while Sejoe brought laughter and authenticity to the stage, sharing, “I finally met my idol, #DaveChappelle, and Wyclef made it happen.” ⁠
⁠
The evening was a reminder of the power of unity during difficult times, especially as Haitian immigrants face looming policy deadlines like the expiration of Temporary Protected Status in August. ⁠
⁠
We’re excited to share the official photos and video from this meaningful night, a tribute to resilience, pride, and community.⁠
