"Friends of the Negro! Fly with me, The path is open to the sea": Remembering the Haitian Revolution in the History, Music, and Culture of the African American People
Jackson · 2008 · Early American Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal 6(1), 59-103
The Haitian Revolution and the figure of Toussaint Louverture did not stay in Haiti. Jackson follows their afterlife in the United States, in African American music, art, cultural life and historical memory across the two centuries since.
The essay traces how those images, representations and ideals were taken up and reproduced over that long span.
