Haiti and the struggle for African Liberation Africa’s Resources in African Hands! © Burning Spear Publications
Africa belongs to African people worldwide! Chairman Omali Yeshitela’s theory of African Internationalism is the basis for this presentation
African and Indigenous peoples were free, independent  self-determining
The people and environment were one
Agriculture, culture, economy: self-sustaining prosperity
Europe was poor, oppressed in middle ages: feudalism, plague
In the 1400s Europe launched an assault on the rest of the world
In the late 1400s Cristobal Colon asked Queen Isabella of Spain for money to sail to India
Queen Isabella had to hock her jewels to pay for Columbus’ voyage
1492: Columbus landed on a Caribbean island inhabited the Taino people  The Taino called their home Ayiti, “Land of Mountains”
When Columbus arrived the Tainos welcomed him and helped his men survive
Columbus immediately began genocide:  raping, torturing, slaughtering the Taino people
[object Object],According to the Spanish colonial priest Bernardo de Las Casas:
Within 40 years the entire Taino population was wiped out
Columbus re-named Ayiti “Hispaniola” “ Little Spain”
In 1695 Spain ceded the Western third of the island to France  France renamed it Saint-Dominque and grew cotton, indigo, tobacco and cocoa on huge plantations
In the 1780s Haiti grew  •40% of all sugar •60% of all coffee  consumed in Europe Haiti was called the  “ Pearl of the Antilles”  Producing the most wealth of all French colonies
France achieved this colonial wealth by enslaving millions of African people who were worked to death within 7 years!
This stolen wealth transformed France from poverty to a wealthy imperial power
[object Object],By the late 1700s more than 50,000 Africans were brought to Haiti every year
At the end of the 18th century there were up to 800,000 enslaved Africans in Haiti And only 32,000 French
A description of French torture of Africans in Haiti ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
This same process of slavery and genocide took place in the U.S., throughout the Caribbean and South America
Same process of genocide against Indigenous people: Wounded Knee
African people became Europe’s most lucrative commodity
Slavery, genocide built capitalism: The dollar sign was a symbol for slave shackles
The “founding fathers” were  slave owners, agents of genocide
Africans auctioned throughout U.S. created billions of dollars of wealth And spawned thousands of spin off businesses for white America
Slave economy, land theft  gave opportunities for millions European immigrants
White workers sided with own ruling class waging terror against African people
In Haiti Rebellions of African people grew against brutal conditions
Africans organized  and armed themselves  for freedom ,[object Object]
Liberté Egalité   Fraternité Inspired by the demands of the French Revolution, Africans launched the first rebellion of the Haitian Revolution in 1791
In 1798 formerly enslaved Toussaint L’ouverture  led an African army that defeated the British invasion
Toussaint L’ouverture became the ruler of the entire island and abolished slavery… but he did not declare independence from France
In 1802 Napoleon sent 30,000 of his best troops to try to reclaim Haiti
Napoleon then sent in his brutal generals Rochambeau and Leclerc ,[object Object],[object Object]
Napoleon ordered slavery  reinstated in Haiti
The people rose up: determined never to be re-enslaved
Toussaint and his people’s army fought brilliantly—but he surrendered to the French!
The French brutally arrested Toussaint and kidnapped him to France L’ouverture died of pneumonia, in brutal, freezing conditions in a French mountain prison
Jean Jacques Dessalines, Louverture’s  chief lieutenant, then led the Africans  against the French
Dessalines always believed in nothing short of total independence for Africans in Haiti
Haiti became Napoleon’s “Vietnam” Under Dessalines, Africans waged a brilliant people’s war against the French
26,000 French troops were killed by the African revolutionaries or died of yellow fever
Dessalines ordered each act of French terror to be repaid in kind ,[object Object],[object Object]
The African liberation army of Haiti included women soldiers
Dessalines and the Africans defeated the French army, declaring independence on  Jan. 1, 1804
The Africans renamed the country  Haiti in solidarity with the  Indigenous people
Principles of Independent Haiti’s constitution ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The Haiti Revolution inspired Denmark Vesey and other slave rebellions
Haiti’s revolution inspired Vicente Guerrero in Mexico, Simon Bolivar in Venezuela
In 1825, Haiti was forced by the US, Britain, France to pay France 90 million gold francs for “stolen property.”  The “property” was African people themselves and land stolen by genocide ! ,[object Object],[object Object]
Haiti’s “reparations” supported France for more than a hundred years, impoverishing Haiti
From 1824-1826 Independent Haiti accepted 13,000 Africans escaping terror in the U.S.
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],From 1915-1934 the U.S. occupied Haiti very brutally in the face of  on-going people’s resistance
This is why Haiti is the most impoverished country in the western hemisphere!
Resistance of African people in Haiti against foreign domination has been constant
1950s: the U.S. set up and backed the murderous neocolonial leader, François “Papa Doc” Duvalier, seen here with Nelson Rockefeller
Duvalier established the paramilitary death squads, the Tonton Macutes, hated by  the people
Despite the repression, on-going African resistance ousted Baby Doc and the brutal Duvalier regime in 1986 Papa Doc was succeeded by his son Jean-Claude “Baby Doc”
In 1990 popular leader Jean-Bertrand Aristide won 67% of the vote for president
Aristide was overthrown by a U.S. backed coup in 1991
Again fierce resistance of the people rose up
IMF “Structural Adjustment Program” policies under Clinton deepened the poverty and destroyed Haiti’s rice industry
Aristide was “allowed” to return to Haiti in 1994– accompanied by UN troops. Aristide was again elected in 2000—this time with 90% of vote.
US and IMF policies continue to deepen the poverty: Africans in Haiti are forced to subsist on mud pies
The people of Haiti again rose up in early 2004
In February, 2004,  200 years after the victory of Haiti’s independence,  Aristide was kidnapped by the U.S. and sent to Africa!
UN troops were again sent in to brutally repress the people and their resistance!
U.S. corporate sweat shops use slave-labor in Haiti
Corporations such as: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
This is the background for the earthquake of Jan. 12,  2010
For years Africans have been fleeing to the U.S. to escape terror and poverty—at the risk of their lives!
Those who survive the trip are put into U.S. immigration detention camps!
The earthquake “relief” is an intensification of U.S. colonial occupation of Haiti—16,000 US Marines & 14,000 other military forces
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Here’s how each dollar of  earthquake donations breaks down:
U.S., Europe built on enslavement, genocide, colonialism
African people live under  colonialism inside U.S. New Orleans - Haiti
African and colonized peoples imprisoned by the millions
Spawning a trillion dollar blood prison industry
African children in prison in the U.S.  Largest child prison population in entire world.
Blood prisons: gold rush at expense of African people ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Today Indigenous people impoverished on reservations! With life expectancy in 40s !
Indigenous people terrorized on their own stolen land
All white people sit on pedestal of slavery, genocide
On a pedestal of slavery, genocide: White America enjoys 50% of entire world’s resources
This is why the only solution is the vision of the African People’s Socialist Party ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Africans are one people worldwide
African & colonized people have a right to resist!
Uhuru Movement: power in the hands of African working people
 
One Indigenous people throughout the hemisphere
Africa’s resources must be in hands of African people!
African People’s Socialist Party-Sierra Leone formed 2009

Haiti: The devastation began in 1492

Notas do Editor

  1. Statue 4500 years old Menkaura and wife, Khamerernebty In Boston museum
  2. Treaty of Ryswick—France, Britain, Holland and independent businessmen (pirates) fighting over the Caribbean and the sugar plantations, cocoa etc.
  3. By the 1780s, Saint-Domingue produced about 40 percent of all the sugar and 60 percent of all the coffee consumed in Europe. This single colony, roughly the size of Maryland or Belgium, produced more sugar and coffee than all of Britain's West Indian colonies combined.
  4. A third of the entire trade in African people were brought to Haiti!
  5. From Henri Christophe’s personal secretary in 18 th century Haiti. Christophe was one of the first elected presidents of liberated Haiti.
  6. In a system that makes human beings its most lucrative commodity there is no regard for the environment
  7. Capitalism is built on slavery and genocide
  8. FOR A REASON: JOBS, PROPERTY FOR WHITE PEOPLE
  9. All citizens known as “black”—most white slave and plantation owners were driven out. This got rid of colonial class designations such as “white, Mestizo, Mulatto,” etc. White people who accepted African leadership were allowed to stay, for example there were Polish exiles escaping oppression there who had come to Haiti and fought on the side of the Africans—they were allowed to stay. Freedom of religion: Imperialism continues to demonize and criminalize the African religion in Haiti known as “Voudou”
