Prof. Jemima Pierre walks us through the European colonialism of the island of Hispaniola, the transatlantic political economy of slavery, the Haitian Revolution, the collective punishment of Haiti, the US intervention in 1915, and the politics of the last 7 decades or so. 🔴🔴🔴Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Indiagloballeft Instagram https://www.instagram.com/indiagloballeft/ 🔴🔴🔴We are also looking for sponsorships or small donations.
