Haiti: A New Hope: Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world, suffering everything from devastating natural disasters to brutal dictatorships. Now, there are hopes that tourism could help it rise from the ashes.

“In the 60s, we were number one in tourism for this part of the world”, says Fritz Parets. “And then, it collapsed...” Parets is at the helm of a bold new venture: a 55-bedroom luxury hotel, part of a scheme to put the nation back on the touristic map. Staff are professionally trained and almost all Haitian. “I live thanks to tourism”, says plumber Islet Jean-François. “It really makes life better here! When tourists stop coming, everything collapses.” Yet Haiti remains impoverished. Years of intensive farming have exhausted the country’s soils, and education is chronically underfunded. Despite the nation’s problems, hotel group boss Charles Fombrun is proud of its rich history. “It’s the first black republic… We were at the base of the end of colonialism, the slave’s revolution. Independence!”

After three years of promoting my culture and country, this is an exciting moment for me. To sit at home and see a tourism television spot on my television of Haiti is breathtaking. Although I don't work for the official Haiti Tourism organization, I know I've had in impact in the way people see my beautiful country and I am proud of that!

Haiti, Experience it! Ayiti, Se La Pou'w La!

Look out for it on Networks such as Food, History, CNN, Discovery, AMC and more.

Christopher Columbus landed on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola during his first transatlantic voyage in 1492 and the island and its population were soon exploited for their gold. However, by the 17th century Spanish interest in the island had waned and French settlers soon rose to dominance with the creation of large sugar plantations.

By the outbreak of the French Revolution in 1789 the plantations on Saint-Domingue were producing 60% of the world’s coffee and 40% of all the sugar imported by Britain and France. This economy was built on the slave labour of approximately 500,000 black Africans who lived in incredibly harsh conditions where they were regularly subjected to extreme cruelty at the hands of their masters.

Tensions between the different groups in the colony had often led to violence, and there had been several uprisings prior to the Haitian Revolution that began on 22 August 1791. Influenced in part by the new ideology expressed in the Declaration of the Rights of Man, the slaves of Saint-Domingue rose against the plantation owners on an unprecedented scale and had seized control of a third of the entire island by 1792.

Desperate to end the revolt and regain control over the island’s wealth the French National Assembly abolished slavery, although Napoleon later attempted to reintroduce it to the colonies. He failed to do so in Saint-Domingue which declared independence on 1 January 1804 under the name Haiti, making it the first country to be established by former slaves.

This video is intented to be a crash course in the Hatian Revolution mostly just for my own amusement but also could help AP Euro Students. This only covers the prelude to the revolution, so not Toussiant L'overture or his successor Jean-Jacques Dessalines. I did record the audio but had to cut the animation down to this length cause time constraints.

The Haitian Revolution was a violent conflict with several factions, foreign intervention, uprisings and the first and only successful slave rebellion in human history.

The French Revolution broke out amidst the social change through the Enlightenment across Europe and the Americas, Saint Domingue had been ruled by France since 1625 and participated in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade heavily, with four racial-classes forming, the Grand Blancs, the Petite Blancs, the Free People of Color, and Slaves, these groups had overlapping ideologies but yet wished for different types of reforms or in the case of the Grand Blancs maintaining of the status quo, as such, during the Revolution these groups allied with each other yet also fought each other all in different areas at the exact same time, the Slaves rebelled against and fought all sides over their corrosive and cruel treatment and as such they conducted a violent guerilla war in which over time the Slaves consolidated their power under Toussaint Louverture, Napoleon would later send genocidal subordinates to re-establish their control over Hispaniola and capture Louverture, but would re-establish slavery in Guadalope, in response, the Slaves would rebel one final time and establish the first black nation on Earth from a European Power.

The first and only successful slave revolution in the Americas began in 1791 when thousands of brutally exploited slaves rose up against their masters on Saint-Domingue. Égalité for All: Toussaint Louverture and the Haitian Revolution explores this history through music, voodoo ritual, powerful re-creations, and insightful writers and historians. Laurent Dubois and others weave the stories of slaves, free people of African descent, wealthy whites, and French administrators into a tale of insurrection, war, heroism, and victory.

This new book, Race, Religion, and The Haitian Revolution, explores the intersections of history, race, religion, decolonization, and revolutionary freedom leading to the founding of the postcolonial state of Haiti in 1804. Particular attention is given to the place of religion in this freedom story. The book not only examines the multiple legacies and the problem of Enlightenment modernity, imperial colonialism, Western racism and hegemony, but also studies their complex relationships with the institution of slavery, religion, and Black freedom. This present work is a collection of five interdisciplinary essays, which underscore the role of faith in Black Atlantic discourse and Haitian thought in shaping the lives of the people in the Black Diaspora and the Haitian people in particular. Topics range from Makandal's Postcolonial religious imagination to Boukman's Liberation Theology, Langston Hughes' discussion of the role of prophetic religion in the Haitian Revolution to Frederick Douglass' critiques of Christianity as a "slave religion;" the text also brings in conversation Du Bois's theory of double consciousness with Fanon's theory of decolonization and revolutionary humanism.
