The French Revolution's Royal Governor: General Blanchelande and Saint Domingue, 1790–92

DOI · Journal article

Saint Domingue's final royal governor went to the guillotine in Paris on 15 April 1793. Blanchelande had been convicted of working against the Revolution: he was said to have denied the colony's white settlers their liberties and to have helped along the slave insurrection that began in 1791. Popkin reconstructs those two years from archives no one had used.

Blanchelande blundered often, and Popkin grants it. Yet the verdict registers more than one man's failures. It marks the collision between what the Revolution professed in its liberal opening years and what governing a slave colony actually required. His orders could not all be obeyed at once: leave the white settlers to govern themselves, make them equal with free people of color, and crush the revolt. One trial witness said the job exceeded any person's powers.

The article sets aside the durable charge of counterrevolutionary motive and reads the episode within a crisis running through every transatlantic empire of the period.

Ti dife boule sou istoua Ayiti: Considering the stakes of Trouillot’s earliest work

Past and Hebblethwaite · 2014 · Cultural Dynamics 26(2), 149-161

Trouillot's first book, Ti dife boule sou istoua Ayiti (1977), is the least familiar thing he published: written in Haitian Creole, never widely circulated, and long out of print.

DOI · Journal article

Trouillot's first book, Ti dife boule sou istoua Ayiti (1977), is the least familiar thing he published: written in Haitian Creole, never widely circulated, and long out of print. Past and Hebblethwaite, who are translating it into English for the first time, examine what it set in motion.

The book is a Marxist reading of colonial history through Haiti's own, and it treats the revolution of 1791 to 1803 as the key to interpreting and criticizing Haiti's more recent past. Rather than celebrate revolutionary heroes in the epic manner, Trouillot faults the Haitian generals for governing along European lines and puts the enslaved masses back at the center of events. Drawing on Haitian storytelling, proverbs, and song, he follows the rivalries, killings, and maneuvering that produced the Haitian state and shows how they shaped it afterward.

The essay closes with the translators considering why Trouillot waited so long to permit an English version.

Restavek arrangements place an estimated 300,000 Haitian children in unpaid domestic servitude. Kennedy reports on a pair of connected qualitative studies that drew on children who had left such placements and on the adults now caring for them.

What emerges is a cluster of difficulties and psychological symptoms that surface after a child gets out. Four are treated in depth: symptoms turned inward and outward, exposure to violence, the cold reception many children meet on returning to their families, and the toll taken by the economic circumstances they come back to.

Kennedy closes with proposals for how services and interventions for these children might be designed.

When Poverty Becomes Profitable: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Microfinancial Development in Haiti

Kleinman · 2014 · Class Race Corporate Power 2(1)

Microfinance arrived with a promise that small loans would lift poor borrowers, especially women, out of poverty.

DOI · Journal article

Microfinance arrived with a promise that small loans would lift poor borrowers, especially women, out of poverty. Kleinman argues the industry has quietly changed its object and now answers to investors seeking returns rather than to the social purpose it was founded on, a shift that mounting defaults and predatory lending have made hard to ignore.

His method is discourse analysis rather than economics. Reading the mission statements, reports and press releases of lenders working in Haiti, among them Fonkoze, ACME and Sogesol, alongside the literature of the World Bank and the large philanthropies, he examines how the vocabulary of human and social capital turns borrowers into subjects to be governed, in Foucault's sense, and lets a basic contradiction pass unnoticed.

Where interest rates on these loans have run between thirty and fifty-five percent, the distance between short-term social claims and long-term financial goals is plain enough.

Danbala/Ayida as Cosmic Prism: The Lwa as Trope for Understanding Metaphysics in Haitian Vodou and Beyond

Bellegarde-Smith and Michel · 2013 · Journal of Africana Religions 1(4), 458-487

Bellegarde-Smith and Michel set out the metaphysical architecture of Haitian Vodou while refusing the habitual sorting of religions into center and margin.

DOI · Journal article

Bellegarde-Smith and Michel set out the metaphysical architecture of Haitian Vodou while refusing the habitual sorting of religions into center and margin. Vodou, in their account, is a religion of the Americas whose metaphysics has grown into something like a national ethos, anchored in past and present time alike.

The serpent pair Danbala and Ayida serves as their organizing figure. Through these lwa the essay traces how the sacred breaks into ordinary life, how devotees negotiate with divine energies, how ritual lineage and family descent intertwine, and how gender is understood in terms too intricate for a simple binary. The same pair opens onto reflection about the natural world.

What emerges from these threads is a cluster of linked ideas: the oneness of being, the pursuit of equilibrium, and konesans, a wisdom that absorbs knowledge into itself — all gathered in the image of the rainbow serpents' cosmic egg.

Militancy and Spirituality: Haiti's Revolutionary Impact on Jamaica's Africans and Afro-Creoles, 1740-1824

Barima · 2013 · Wadabagei : A Journal of the Caribbean and Its Diaspora 14(1/2), 77-98,145

Journal article

Haitian independence reverberated among Africans across the Atlantic world, and Barima traces one channel of that influence: Jamaica in the decades on either side of the revolution.

The starting condition matters to the argument. Maroon polities in Jamaica had signed treaties with the colonial establishment in 1739 and 1740, a serious setback for the fight against slavery there. Events in Haiti revived that fight, Barima contends, feeding marronage, conspiracies, and open revolt through the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

The study examines how Jamaica's Africans and Afro-Creoles mirrored what was happening in Haiti while carrying forward West and Central African culture and spirituality as part of the campaign for freedom. Revisiting this political and religious terrain, Barima argues, brings into view earlier answers to the same summons the captives had raised.

Journal article

Two black newspapers in New York City, Freedom's Journal and the Colored American, carried out what Yingling identifies as one of the earliest sustained racial projects in the United States, across the years from 1827 to 1841.

Facing constant slander aimed at black Americans, the editors set about redefining who their readers were within the Black Atlantic, moving away from an idea of a shared African past that was losing its hold. Freedom's Journal put the Haitian Revolution to work as proof of resistance, of the abolitionist case, and of self-rule.

The Colored American, coming later, made different use of the same country. It held up the Republic of Haiti as an example of sound government, prosperity, and refinement, a portrait fitted to that community's own growing claims on citizenship, inclusion, and rights.

One Plus One Equals Three: Marasa Consciousness, theLwa, and Three Stories

Pressley-Sanon · 2013 · Research in African Literatures 44(3), 118

Vèvè Clark proposed reading African diasporic literature through marasa consciousness, a theory of textual relationships modeled on the Haitian divine twins.

DOI · Journal article

Vèvè Clark proposed reading African diasporic literature through marasa consciousness, a theory of textual relationships modeled on the Haitian divine twins. Pressley-Sanon extends the idea in two directions: back toward the concept's African sources, themselves already doubled, and forward into contemporary Haitian fiction.

Her material is three stories from Haiti Noir, the anthology Edwidge Danticat edited in 2011, by Évelyne Trouillot, Katia D. Ulysse and Gary Victor, grouped as a marasa twa of her own devising. Though the narratives sit squarely in the New World, she argues that their African inheritance shapes them, and surfaces plainly in at least one.

What the marasa offers, on her reading, is not a stalled opposition but a third term. The dosu or dosa, the child born after twins, supplies the resolving element that pairings of here and there, us and them, home and abroad otherwise lack, and that diaspora and foreign intervention make pressing.

What language did the leaders of the Haitian Revolution actually speak? Girard tries to answer that for Toussaint Louverture in particular, using accounts left by people who knew him, letters written by other former slaves, and the memoir Louverture composed shortly before he died.

Reading these documents closely as a historian and a linguist, he concludes that Louverture wrote in French almost without exception, reserved Kreyòl for speech, above all when he addressed laborers, and hardly ever fell back on the Ewe-Fon of his Arada forebears.

The memoir also bears on a dispute among linguists. Against those who trace Haitian Kreyòl chiefly to African languages, Girard finds the stronger imprint to be that of older, regional and lower-class forms of French. Louverture's own attachment to French, he adds, supports readings of him as a moderate drawn to metropolitan models.

Spatial Strategies of Haitian Businesses in the Diaspora: The Case of Metropolitan Miami (2001-2009)

Haitian-owned businesses in metropolitan Miami have followed their customers. Audebert maps their locations between 2001 and 2009 and finds two districts rather than one: the older concentration in Little Haiti, where three storefronts in five are Haitian-owned and shoppers arrive from across South Florida, and a newer suburban corridor in North Miami organized along West Dixie Highway and served by Haitian-run mini-bus routes.

The second district represents duplication rather than growth — the same restaurants, grocers, botanicas and repair shops, moved north with the residents. This disappoints Audebert's own earlier prediction that the ethnic economy would diversify. Most firms are undercapitalized, dependent on Haitian custom, and poorly connected to one another or to local banks, which limits what they could contribute to reconstruction after 2010. Their real asset is fluency in two commercial cultures, and he suggests building supply links back to small producers in Haiti.
