by Pat Chin, Greg Dunkel, Kim Ives, Sara Flounders
Category: History

Haiti's slave revolution and its continual resistance to occupation and dictatorship are recounted through the Haitian art, poetry, photos, and essays included in this exciting anthology. The agonies and exaltations of the country and its people will garner the reader's empathy and illustrate why the Haitian Revolution is still considered a threat to U.S. foreign policy. Haiti's impact on the United States, including voodoo economics, and the effects of U.S. embargoes against the country are discussed along with plausible reasons for occupation.
