Langston Hughes once stated that “It was in Haiti that I first realized how class lines may cut across color lines within a race, and how dark people of the same nationality may scorn those below them.” What exactly did Langton Hughes observe in the Haitian experience that would lead him to make such a conclusion? Decades removed from this pronouncement; still, this line of sentiment rings true as one reflects on the historical movement of a people whose lived experience of African heritage and its fight for independence promoted them to be the scrouge of the earth and a living example of what happens to black people when they take a tough stance against abuse and tyranny. In this episode, I wish to discuss what is happening to our cousins in Haiti and why we should take serious note of their fighting spirit.
