Sinopse

Haiti, the first slavery-emancipated black nation on earth, achieved a political revolution for the dignity of man at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Her history is well documented. Scholars have published in-depth analyses on her past and present. Yet she remains an enigma. In Roadmap to Haiti?s Next Revolution: A Plan for Diaspora Haitians to Contribute to a Peaceful Turnaround, author Rubens Francois Titus attempts to understand the real underpinnings of the Haitian revolution while proposing labels for a number of the most well-known events in Haiti?s history. He also tries to refute some of the most widely accepted contemporary misconceptions about the Haiti of today. There are a number of hard lessons to be learned from studying Haiti?s history. Titus puts forth a series of empirical proposals that can serve as the basis for future political forum debates among the concerned Diaspora Haitians-debates that ought to lead to the adoption of a Diaspora Plan for Haiti.
