Another aftershock hit Haiti this morning, this one of magnitude 6.1. The devastation from the original quake is nowhere close to being contained, and sustained hits make it even harder to regain some sort of order in the country.
Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who has a long history with Haiti, says that the country just cannot sustain another big earthquake. She joined us via phone, along with Mark Danner, whose recent book Stripping Bare the Body: Politics Violence War, tells his stories of reporting from Haiti. They both offered more ideas for ways that the U.S. government and people can be an influence for good.
Don't miss Danner's recent interview with Laura about his book, as well.
