The article titled " 200 Years of Forgetting: Hushing up the Haitian Revolution" by Thomas Reinhardt was eye-opening for me. Throughout my education‚ I have always heard about slaves and the rebellions they pursued to fight inequality; however‚ I was never told that a slave rebellion was successful or revolutionary. All of my teachers in the past seemed neutral on the situation‚ and I thought I was the only one who was proud of the slaves that rebelled in ways they had to obtain freedom. This being

Bonjour. Aujourd’hui je vais expliquer la Révolution Haïtienne et ses complexités. Prior to 1790‚ Haitian society was broken up into 3 groups: the slaves‚ the gens de coleur (or free non-whites)‚ and the whites. The whites were equal in the eyes of the law‚ but they were divided by class. Meanwhile‚ the free non-whites‚ or gens de coleur‚ faced discrimination both in the law and in society.

Haitian Sensation One of the more interesting things I’ve had to deal with in life was growing up Haitian in the 90’s/00’s. This was wayyy before it became kind of cool and folks started showing love to Haitians with everyone usually screaming out “shout out my zoes” when referring to Haitian with some not knowing what this even means.

Born to my father and mother who are natives of Haiti‚ I have developed a strong sense of the Haitian culture. I was born and raised in the United States‚ but I would have to tell you that because there is no way to decipher that due to the manner in which my parents raised me and my 3 siblings.

There are many different factors that brought about the American Revolution. As well as political battles‚ there was a large economical battle taking places in the colonies because of taxation without representation. The colonists often believed that the British government was tyrannical and out of control with the taxes they implemented on the colonists. The disputes over trade‚ government control‚ and taxes eventually brought about the American Revolution and shaped the way America is today.

Nowadays‚ it is almost taken for granted that the industrial revolutions are the result of changing technology and the proper application of that in the industrial production. However‚ from my point of view‚ these two factors did play a vital role in stimulating industrial revolutions‚ but they were not the only catalyzer propelling monumental development in industry.
