Miami Heat attack ‘hateful’ speech after Trump’s lies about Haitians

The Miami Heat have issued a statement defending the Haitian community amid rumours and threats from the far right in the US. The NBA team posted a message of support on social media on Monday amid false claims that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio have eaten pets and wildlife. “The Miami HEAT staff, like Miami itself, is a diverse and brilliant mix of vibrant cultures, including members of our Haitian community,” the team wrote in the statement.
