ORIGINALLY RELEASED Jun 21, 2020 In this episode, we explore the Haitian Revolution—the only successful slave revolt in history and a landmark event in the global struggle against colonialism and white supremacy. From the brutal plantation economy of Saint-Domingue to the rise of revolutionary leaders like Toussaint Louverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines, we trace how enslaved Africans overthrew French rule and declared the world's first Black republic. We also examine how this radical uprising shook the foundations of empire, inspired abolitionist movements, and remains a crucial—yet often erased—chapter in revolutionary history. Alexander Aviña is an associate professor of Latin American history in the School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies at Arizona State University. His book, "Specters of Revolution: Peasant Guerrillas in the Cold War Mexican Countryside" , was awarded the Maria Elena Martínez Book Prize in Mexican History for 2015 by the Conference on Latin American History. ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio HERE Outro Beat Prod. by flip da hood

⁠⁠Support us on Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---The story of the Haitian Revolution is well-known. From the oath at Bois Caiman to the large-scale slave revolt which birthed the nation and subsequent war against the Napoleonic invasion force, the revolution is filled with cinematic moments of great poignancy. But what happened next?Usually the story ends with Jean-Jacques Dessalines taking power, but with the help of our Haitian-born and raised friend Sebastian, we take the story further, and explore just what happened to this Caribbean nation for the remainder of the 19th century. We take aim at Haiti's troubled economics , political system, and internal racial politics. The story is told through the lens of the many colorful personalities who took the reins of power while styling themselves monarchs. From Henri Christophe to Faustin Soulouque, Haitian history is filled with figures who sought to emulate French political forms despite the antagonistic relationship between these two countries. The imperial moniker was partly a signifier intended for foreign consumption, but it had a ring of truth to it as well, as these rulers built palaces through corvee labor, minted aristocrats, and sought to impose their authority over their Spanish-speaking neighbors in what is today the Dominican Republic. So what went on in Haiti? Listen to the episode to find out.--See Sebastian's Substack Kaskad for more contemporary Haiti analysis.

En esta ocasión les quiero hablar de una exposición titulada Guillaume Lethière que se inauguró el pasado 15 de junio en el Clark Art Institute, este está localizado en la ciudad de Williamstown, MA. Esta exposición se estará presentando hasta el 14 octubre de este año 2024. Esta exposición es producto de una colaboración entre el Clark Art Institute y el Museo del Musée du Louvre en Paris, y esta curada por Esther Bell. Esta exposición viajará a Paris en donde se presentará en el Museo del Louvre (Musée du Louvre) desde el 13 noviembre hasta 17 febrero de 2025. Es la primera exposición que reúne y presenta la obra artística del pintor Guillaume Lethière. Esta explora la vida y la carrera artística del artista neoclásico nacido en el caribe colonial francés en la isla de Guadalupe en el 1760. Lethière es hijo de una mujer negra esclava y un blanco oficial de gobierno y dueño de una plantación. A los catorce años se muda junto con su padre a Francia y fue una figura clave en la historia del arte al final de mil ochocientos y principios del novecientos. He aquí algunos de los roles que Lethière desempeño. El sirvió como director de la Academia Francesa en Roma (Académie de Francia en Rome, como miembro del Instituto de Francia, y como profesor en la Escuela de Bellas Artes (École des Beaux-Arts). Lethière fue profesor durante toda su vida y se interesó activamente en orientar a los artistas de la próxima generación. Muchos de los estudiantes de Lethière tenían vínculos con el Caribe, entre los cuales se encuentran el artista Jean-Abel Lordon (1801-1876) y Jean-Baptiste-Adolphe Gibert (1806-1889). Además, varias mujeres jóvenes con vínculos familiares con el Caribe se formaron con el artista desde muy pequeñas y tuvieron carreras exitosas como por ejemplo la pintora y retratista Antoinette Cécile Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot (1784-1845) quien comenzó sus estudios con Lethière a la edad de siete años. Es importante mencionar que a pesar de tener una trayectoria tan exitosa muy poco se sabe de él. Esta exposición reúne una serie de obras y entre esas se encuentran representadas figuras importantes de la Revolución Haitiana como Toussaint Louverture, Alexandre Pétion, Jean-Jacques Dessalines y Jean-Pierre Boyer.  Para ubicarnos en el entorno de la vida Lethière, tenemos que recurrir a una parte de la historia francesa, La Revolución Francesa. Esta se hizo sentir en el caribe francés en este caso en Haití y en Guadalupe. La isla de Guadalupe fue testigo de levantamientos y de revueltas especialmente en el 1793 en Saint-Anne, que era el lugar en donde Lethière paso parte de su niñez y en donde su padre aún era dueño de una plantación. En Haití comienza estas revueltas y ya para el 1804 se convierte en la única república negra en el hemisferio occidental y la primera sociedad en abolir la esclavitud. Existe una programación abierta al público en donde se presentarán una serie de conversatorios, visitas guiadas y talleres. Así que para más información visite la página web clarkart.edu/events.

On Today's episode, I will discuss the most important day of the year for black descendants of slavery. That would be the Haitian Revolution. A revolution that shook up the world (Ali's voice) and gave black slaves a sense of pride. This revolution didn't just set blacks free it also set the Hispanic people free. Some didn't know that the Haitians also went into Louisiana and took over that area, starting with a revolution on a little island called Haiti. I would like to take the time out and shout at all the men who put their lives on the line for our freedom. Men like Toussaint Louverture, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, and all the fallen warriors. today we will be giving these freedom fighters their flowers and also paying respect.

Toussaint L'Ouverture, escravizado até os 30 anos de idade, foi líder de uma rebelião abolicionista e governador no Haiti. Novo podcast no ar! Durante metade da sua vida, Toussaint foi um escravizado doméstico com grande afinidade com seu mestre. Assim, teve mais tempo e recursos para investir na sua educação. Em 1776, foi libertado pelo seu mestre e em 1791, aderiu à uma rebelião abolicionista contra o governo colonial francês no Haiti. Em pouco tempo, tornou-se comandante de mais de 80 mil rebeldes. Toussaint queria que o Haiti fosse um lar de convivência entre pretos, brancos e pardos. Entretanto, outros generais haitianos, como Jean Jacques Dessalines, viam isso como uma ingenuidade. Para muitos haitianos, os brancos deveriam ser eliminados completamente da ilha. A todo custo, Toussaint tentava conciliar às classes, lutando pela abolição da escravidão e pacificação da população. Ao longo de 10 anos liderando o movimento, Toussaint coordenou um exército rebelde, aliou-se aos espanhóis, aos franceses, lutou contra os britânicos e contra seus rivais haitianos. Nessa pauta, cobrimos cerca de 8 anos da Revolução Haitiana - de 1791 a 1799 - um período repleto de invasões estrangeiras e guerras civis entre os generais haitianos. Vários problemas políticos e ambientais que o Haiti enfrenta hoje em dia, já estavam presentes no século 18. ____________________ Se curte o conteúdo do Geo, agradecemos quem contribuir com nossa campanha mensal no: Picpay: https://picpay.me/geopizza Apoia.se: https://apoia.se/geopizza ou Patreon: https://patreon.com/geopizza ____________________ Fontes completas e dicas culturais no nosso site https://geopizza.com.br/

Celle-ci s'est déroulée dans l'ile caribéenne d'Ayiti, à la fin du 18e siècle. À ce moment-là, des milliers de personnes esclavisées et Noir·es libres se révoltent et se soulèvent contre le régime esclavagiste, réussissent à chasser les colons français et à battre les troupes napoléoniennes réputées pour être les plus puissantes du monde. Iels y établissent la première république libre et noire du continent Abya Yala, nom autochtone de l'Amérique.

In this week's episode, my guest, Amy Schack and I discuss "Liberty or Death" by Haitian revolutionary and leader, Jean Jacques Dessalines. We draw parallels between this provocative proclamation and Public Enemy's classic song "Fight the Power" (both the 1989 original and the 2020 remix). We also consider connections between Dessalines's message and Sting song lyrics - taking special care to address the glaring difference of privilege in the latter's situation. For this episode we utilized the Norton Anthology World Literature, Volume E, 4th edition. Additional resources include: Lyrics by Sting.

American Capital

Revolution and freedom hold different meanings to different people, and the history of the colonial world is no exception. This episode of American Capital explores the impact of the Transatlantic Slave Trade through data: how large it truly was, and what it looked like to those involved first-hand. Along the way, we tie together the Haitian Revolution—arguably the only successful revolt of enslaved people in the New World—and the American Revolution. Ultimately asking: was there an "Age of Revolutions" occurring around the world, and were all of these fought under a common definition of "freedom?" — EPISODE MENTIONS Who: Aaron Lopez, Charles Leclerc, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, John Hancock, Joseph Miller, Napolean Bonaparte, Robert Paul Thomas, Thomas Jefferson, Toussaint Louverture What: American Declaration of Independence, American Revolution, Dunmore's Proclamation, Haitian Declaration of Independence, Haitian Revolution, Louisiana Purchase, Navigation Acts, Stamp Act (1765), Slave Ship Brookes, Slave Ship Creole, Slave Ship Sally, Slave Ship Zong, Transatlantic Slave Trade Where: British West Indies, Colonial Brazil, Haiti (Saint-Domingue), Indian Ocean, Middle Passage, The Thirteen Colonies, West Africa Documents: "A Quantitative Approach to the Study of the Effects of British Imperial Policy Upon Colonial Welfare", SlaveVoyages.org, Voyage of the Slave Ship Sally --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/american-capital/support

Então, Jean Jacques Dessalines proclamou para o mundo: Independência ou Morte! Literalmente. Em Janeiro de 1804 estava consolidada a vitória antiescravista e anticolonialista. Está no ar a parte 2 da Revolução Haitiana!

Em 1791, mais de cem mil escravizados, liderados por Dutty Boukman, davam início ao maior processo revolucionário da América Latina. Até então conhecida como pérola do caribe, responsável por um lucro inimaginável aos cofres da coroa francesa, a ilha da Saint Domingue se lançava no caminho sem volta da Revolução. Após quase dois séculos de domínio francês, contando com quase meio milhão de escravizados, o Haiti pegava em armas. Inspirados pelo Vodú, organizados pelas guerrilhas, utilizando o próprio corpo como arma, derrotaram franceses, ingleses e espanhóis. Nem o exército e marinha do poderoso Napoleão Bonaparte puderam resistir. Toussaint L'Overture, Joseph Berkley, Vincent Ogé, Jean Jacques Dessalines: "permitam que eles falem, não somente suas cicatrizes". Para quem não esquece um 4 de Julho e adora postar foto da Bastilha no dia 14 do mesmo mês, nós apresentamos a Revolução Negra, Anti Racista e Anti Imperialista, do século XVIII. Contada por CLR James, Michel-Rolph Truillot e muitos outros intelectuais que saíram da região do Caribe. Com vocês, nosso 10 episódio, a parte 1 da Revolução Haitiana.

Every Haitian household, whether in a permanent home or under a tent, will be making, drinking, and sharing some Soup Joumou. It is a symbol of our strength... Haiti will survive! It is not a coincidence that "Soup Joumou" is consumed in every Haitian household all over the world on January 1st of every year. This symbol is the last symbol of unity and freedom we have left. We make Soup Joumou every New Year... We eat Soup Joumou every New Year... We share Soup Joumou every New Year... We do it EVERY JANUARY 1st of every New Year in order to remember our past, our struggle for FREEDOM, and our ongoing fight to remain free. What better way to celebrate the New Year than with the very soup that we were not allowed to drink as slaves? The most important New Year Celebration in Haitians history is New Year's Day, January 1, 1804. We fought for nearly thirteen years before this day so that we could initiate this symbol of freedom for ALL slaves ALL over the world. Before 1804, A Haitian slave was NOT allowed to touch Joumou, a delicious and aromatic pumpkin that was a favorite for her white French master. Haitian Slave Diet: He/She was to eat one ounce of salted meat or fish and one bottle of lemonade per day. When our ancestors finally kicked the French out of the island, The Party was on! We fought the French and we won! Place: Gonaives, Haiti Nickname: City of Independence Date: Sunday, January 1st 1804 On Sunday January 1, 1804, the Haitian slaves of yesterday started gathering at dawn at the "Place d'Armes de Gonaives". it was there that Jean Jacques Dessalines mounted the Autel de la Patrie to speak. He made his speach in Kreyol so everyone could understand him. "Liberte ou la Mort!" "Long live independence!" Jean Jacques Dessalines declared that Haitians would forever live free and die free. "Cannons were fired, church bells rung, people cheered, and, they say kettles of fragrant soup joumou perfumed the air, ready to be ladled up in a mass communion." Soup Joumou Tradition, Symbolism, or just a plain old habit? Lately, the consumption of soup joumou has become just an old habit for Haitians. It seams we have forgotten its true history and purpose. Soup Joumou - This soup was the touchstone of Haiti's fervent wish for peace and freedom Soup Joumou was a symbol of communion and brotherhood Perhaps we should re-attach the symbolism of independence to the oldest Haitian Tradition - a goold old bold of delicious soup joumou. Perhaps we should tell the story. Perhaps we should let the whole world know that we drink this soup on the first day of every year because once upon a time, we were NOT allowed to drink it. Perhaps we should let the whole world know that we are FREE and independent because once upon a time, we were not allowed to be FREE. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Toussaint L’Ouverture’s father was a man named Gaou Guinou, the son of the King of Allada, a west African kingdom located in present-day Benin. L’Ouverture’s father was captured during a war, and subsequently sold into slavery. L’Ouverture’s mother was named Pauline, Guinou's second wife, and L’Ouverture was the oldest child between the married couple. L’Ouverture started life as an enslaved person, and ended as a free man. The Haitian Revolution lasted from approximately 1791 to 1804; and essentially it was a slave revolt in Saint-Domingue that culminated in the elimination of slavery on the island, and thereupon established the Republic of Haiti. Through the course of recorded history, it is the first and only slave rebellion that led to the founding of a state and is generally considered to be the most successful slave rebellion to have ever occurred in all of the Americas. Beginning in 1789, the freed people of color were inspired by the French Revolution to expand their own rights, and seek complete freedom. On August 29, 1793, L’Ouverture made a famous declaration before his countrymen at St. Domingue: "Brothers and friends, I am Toussaint Louverture; perhaps my name has made itself known to you. I have undertaken vengeance. I want Liberty and Equality to reign in St. Domingue. I am working to make that happen. Unite yourselves to us, brothers and fight for the same cause." By 1796, L’Ouverture was thee dominant force in the fight for freedom. By early 1801, L’Ouverture’s troops had captured Santo Domingo, the capital of the Spanish part of Hispaniola. With this capture, the entirety of the island was under L’Ouverture’s control. Napoleon refused to respond, and eventually sent 20,000 of his men to Saint Domingue to restore French authority. L’Ouverture’s original plan was to scorch the earth, meaning he would burn the coastal cities and as much of the plains as possible and retreat with his troops into the mountains, generally inaccessible to those who were uninitiated, until such time as fever would destroy the French army. L'Ouverture's troops never fully gained their fighting strength, and eventually an amnesty was agreed upon. Following the amnesty, L'Ouverture was captured and arrested by French troops, sent to a French prison and died on April 7, 1803. Once he was deceased, Jean-Jacques Dessalines led the remainder of the Haitian rebellion until its completion, completing its defeat of the French in 1803.

What does it mean to be free? How can paying attention to the relationship between freedom and slavery help construct a concept and practice of freedom that is “perpetual, unfinished, and rooted in acts of flight” (181)? In his book Freedom as Marronage University of Chicago Press, 2015), Neil Roberts (Africana Studies, Religion, and Political Science, Williams College) explores this and many other questions. Proceeding from and working with the concept and practice of marronage – modes of escape from slavery emerging from the Caribbean – Roberts articulates a theory of freedom that is historically specific while having trans-historical reverberations, and that is attentive to lived experiences of freedom and slavery. In doing so, he engages histories of the transatlantic slave trade, colonialism, diaspora, the Haitian Revolution, and American slavery. Arguing for the need to creolize political theory and philosophy, Roberts also takes up the thought and practice of W.E.B. DuBois, Hannah Arendt, Philip Petit, Frederick Douglass, Angela Davis, Toussaint L’Ouverture, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, Edouard Glissant, Rastafari, and much more. Learn more about your ad choices.
