Extractions: A Brief History of an Important Event Boukman - A Spiritual Battle: If all one ever sees is the news coverage of Haiti, it seems that chaos and injustice reign in Haiti. I am frequently asked how Haiti has come to be like this, and I usually answer by talking about Haiti's history. I'd like to share with you an important story from Haiti's past that will help to shed some light on the current state of Haiti. Haiti became a French colony in 1697, although at that time it was known as Saint-Dominque. Because of the climate and fertile soil it was a great place for growing sugar cane, but growing and harvesting cane is extremely labor intensive so slaves were imported from Africa. By the late 1700's there were 500,000 black slaves, about 30,000 affranchis (these were people of mixed blood or the rare black slave who had been given or purchased his own freedom), and only 26,000 whites.
Trouble In Haiti
Written by Assistant Professor of history, at Wright University, John Sherman, about his visit to haiti in June, 1996.
http://www.wright.edu/news_events/community/fall96/haiti.html

Extractions: TROUBLE IN HAITI A CARIBBEAN NATION ON THE BRINK By John Sherman, Ph.D. J OHN S HERMAN , Wright State assistant professor of history, visited Haiti for two weeks in June as part of a human rights delegation. His trip, funded through a Professional Development Grant from WSU's Research Council, provided a firsthand look at the problems besetting an impoverished people struggling to establish meaningful democracy in the wake of a brutal dictatorship. This fall, Sherman's upper-division students in his Authoritarianism and Repression class are studying the Haitian political dynamics in-depth. "Haiti could easily become the hemisphere's first so-called 'Failed Nation-State,'"he explains, referring to the euphemism adopted by the Pentagon for African nations that have collapsed into anarchy. "To understand why so much of the Third World is sliding into hopelessness and violence, we must understand Haiti." y airplane landed on the lone runway of Port-au-Prince's International Airport in the sweltering heat of midday. A band greeted passengers with merengue as we walked the tarmac, stopped once we entered the terminal, then resumed its music when a second Airbus-300 from the States opened its doors. On the other side of a chaotic baggage claim waited throngs of begging street children, half-clothed and hungry, while grown men jockeyed for the opportunity to carry the bags of rich "blans" (whiteskins). Though only three hours from Miami, I had entered an upside-down world where minority whites are suspect, and where consumerism gives way to hunger. I was here, as a Latin American scholar, to observe the insecurity of a people struggling to establish democracy after decades of dictatorship and repression. The eight-person Human Rights delegation to which I was attached, sponsored by the Mennonite and Brethren Churches, provided me opportunities that every student of the Third World longs for - intense, on-the-ground encounters with the world's poor as they struggle for change in the face of the possible political disintegration of their society.

Extractions: The History of Haiti A tiny tropical island sits in the Caribbean, decorated with palm trees and colorful hibiscus flowers. Its mountains stand majestically looking down upon sandy beaches and green valleys. From afar it appears as any other island one might encounter sailing the turquoise waters of the Caribbean. Yet, as we draw closer we notice a difference. There are no tourist resorts dotting the coasts, no high rise hotels with sand volleyball courts and marimba bands. This is Haiti, this is different. If the land could speak it would tell of tragedy and violence, of abuse and bloodshed, of power and greed. Why does the country stand apart from its neighbors? The answer lies in the turbulent history of this tiny nation. The Early Years Christopher Columbus landed on the tiny island he called, "La isla espanola" in December 1492 (The name was later shortened to Hispanola). The island was inhabited by local Arawak Indians who referred to their home as "Hayti", or mountainous land. In keeping with imperialistic ideology, the Spaniards used and abused the native Arawaks to the point of near extinction.It's location and lush soil made Haiti a treasure constantly sought after by Britain, France and Spain. Finally, by the middle of the 17th century the island became a French colony. Under French rule Haiti flourished. Haitian products were in great demand in the European market and the tiny island became invaluable as a resource for cocoa, cotton, sugar cane and coffee. Unfortunately, the great demands for these products also created a demand for inexpensive labor. The French, as the Spanish before them looked to Africa as a solution to the labor problem. They imported slaves from the west coast of Africa.

http://www.forhaitiwithlove.org/p_history.htm

Extractions: IN THE BEGINNING... In the late 60's Don DeHart was working full time heavy construction (highway and subdivision) while pastoring small country churches for free in rural Indiana. As his career advanced, he found himself in management of what became a multimillion dollar construction company, while maintaining his volunteer services to country churches. It became more and more discouraging to preach and teach about tithing and contributions and then, in the meetings of the churches, listen to the congregation vote to spend the money on their own personal creature comforts. After sharing these feelings with a fellow minister, Don was encouraged to go on a mission trip to Haiti where he could have more time to commune with God and reestablish his priorities. Click on the thumbnail for the picture you want to see. The winter of 1968-69 Don cleaned out the savings, took all the shots and gathered contributions of items he had been asked to bring. He took a manual typewriter, filled all the nooks with ball point pens and all sorts of medications from his and other physicians. Off he went to build a youth camp to get children of a remote village out of the town during Mardi Gras. His first "breakdown" experience in Haiti involved fixing an oil line with one of the barrels of the ball point pens so they could get out to the village after the truck broke down on the National Road. He quickly learned that you have to be a "make do" person in Haiti. Improvising = survival. Using a brace and bit to drill holes and wooden dowels to peg things together, cutting wood with a machette and eating sugar cane with the local workers for lunch, Don lost a lot of weight, had plenty of physical challenges and gained a whole new perspective he also left a big part of his heart in Haiti and was never able to walk away from helping these poor people.

Extractions: HISTORY The Spaniards used Hispaniola (of which Haiti is the western part and the Dominican Republic is the eastern) as a launching point to explore the rest of the Western Hemisphere. French buccaneers later used the western third of the island as a point from which to harass English and Spanish ships. In 1697, Spain ceded the western third of Hispaniola to France. As piracy was gradually suppressed, some French adventurers became planters, making Saint-Domingueas the French portion of the island was then calledone of the richest colonies of the 18th century French empire. During this period, African slaves were brought to work the sugarcane and coffee plantations. In 1791, the slave populationled by Toussaint L'Ouverture, Jean Jacques Dessalines, and Henri Christopherevolted and gained control of the northern part of Saint-Domingue. In 1804, local forces defeated an army deployed by Napoleon Bonaparte, established independence from France, and renamed the area Haiti. The defeat of the French in Haiti is widely credited with contributing to Napoleon's decision to sell the Louisiana territory to the United States in 1804. Haiti is the world's oldest black republic and the second-oldest republic after the United States in the Western Hemisphere. Haitians actively assisted the American Revolution and independence movements of Latin American countries. Two separate regimes (north and south) emerged after independence but were unified in 1820. Two years later, Haiti conquered Santo Domingo, the eastern, Spanish-speaking portion of Hispaniola. In 1844, however, Santo Domingo broke away from Haiti and became the Dominican Republic. With 22 changes of government from 1843 until 1915, Haiti experienced numerous periods of intense political and economic disorder, prompting United States military intervention in 1915. U.S. military forces were withdrawn in 1934 at the request of the elected Government of Haiti.
