Description:

  • Jean Dominique entèvyouve Franklin Midy ak Jacquelin Eugène sou pwojè Wout Esklav UNESCO a. Yo eksplike poukisa li enpòtan mete aksan pa sèlman sou abolisyon esklavaj, men sou wòl rebelyon ekslav (sitou revolisyon ayisyen an) te jwe pou pwovoke abolisyon esklavaj la. Aprè sa, yo pale sou yon kanpay yon gwoup pastè pwotestan deklanche lòtrejou pou "konvèti" lespri Boukman epi "dechouke" enfliyans vodou an nan peyi d Ayiti.

  • Jean Dominique rencontre Franklin Midy et Jacquelin Eugène sur le projet Route de l’esclave de l’Unesco. Ils expliquent pourquoi il faut non seulement mettre l’accent sur l’abolition de l’esclavage, mais sur le rôle des révoltes d’esclaves dans le processus qui mène aux abolitions, surtout la révolution haïtienne. Ils parlent aussi d’une campagne déclenchée par un groupe de pasteurs protestants pour « convertir » l’esprit de Boukman et déchouquer l’influence vodou en Haïti.

  • Jean Dominique interviews Franklin Midy and Jacquelin Eugène about the UNESCO Slave Route project. They describe the importance of emphasizing not only the abolition of slavery, but the role of insurrections of enslaved people (especially the Haitian Revolution) in bringing about the abolition of slavery. They then discuss a recent campaign by Protestant pastors to posthumously "convert" the spirit of Boukman and "dechouke" the influence of Vodou in Haiti.
