Black History Month Myth: Haiti’s “African Spartacus.”
Haiti’s “African Spartacus” was actually a pro-French, eurocentric, slave owner. After the earthquake in Haiti PBS, the taxpayer financed left-wing propaganda machine, began re-airing documentaries on Haiti that bring out the typical condescending white liberal Negrophile liberal arts professors.
One of the outlandish tales being told is of the great “African Spartacus.” These condescending whites proudly boast that Haiti would be a great nation today if Toussaint hadn’t been “exiled and replaced by a series of despots.”
Let’s examine this “African Spartacus.”
1. Toussaint was a house servant to a wealthy French family who freed him at the age of 33. Toussaint protected his former owners from being murdered by a black mob around 1793 and took them to safety in Hispaniola.
2. Toussaint became wealthy and owned two plantations, which included many Negro slaves. Toussaint was a devoted Catholic, a member of the Freemasons, and a supporter of the French. Toussaint saw himself as the natural leader of Haiti’s black population and thought he could teach them to be more like the French. He chastised Haiti’s blacks for their behavior, especially the practice of voodoo. He took the ego-maniacal name “L’Ouverture,” which means “to show the way.”
3. In 1791, the voodoo priest Boukamn held a rally commonly called “Haiti’s pact with the devil.” He sacrificed a pig and led his followers in drinking the pig’s blood. He called his followers to “cast down the image of the white God.” All in attendance swore an oath to launch a murderous racial cleansing of the island in two weeks.
4. The followers of Boukamn went on a rampage burning hundreds of plantations and murdering about 2,000 whites. Boukamn was killed on the third week and his followers fled into the woods.
5. The French parliament, which had already been considering freeing all the colonial slaves, passed an anti-slavery bill one year later. Freed slaves in Haiti were granted French citizenship and a plan was put into place for a phasing out of slavery. France sent three new pro-abolition commissioners to Haiti to enforce the new act.
