Ideas like liberty, freedom, and self-determination were hot stuff in the late 18th century, as evidenced by our recent revolutionary videos. Although freedom was breaking out all over, many of the societies that were touting these ideas relied on slave labor. Few places in the world relied so heavily on slave labor as Saint-Domingue, France's most profitable colony. Slaves made up nearly 90% of Saint-Domingue's population, and in 1789 they couldn't help but hear about the revolution underway in France. All the talk of liberty, equality, and fraternity sounds pretty good to a person in bondage, and so the slaves rebelled. This led to not one but two revolutions, and ended up with France, the rebels, Britain, and Spain all fighting in the territory. Spoiler alert: the slaves won. So how did...

The Haitian Revolution has often been described as the largest and most successful slave rebellion in the Western Hemisphere.In 1791, taking advantage of divisions among colonial rulers created by the roiling French Revolution, slaves on the French Caribbean island colony of Saint-Domingue (today's Haiti) rose up en masse, launching the only successful slave rebellion in recorded huma...
THE HAITIAN Revolution was the first and only successful slave revolution in human history. The slaves' struggle produced heroic leaders, especially Toussaint L'Ouverture. He and his revolutionary army of self-emancipated slaves defeated the three great empires of the eighteenth century—Spain, England, and France—and finally won independence after a decade of struggle in 1804.

The Haitian Revolution was the greatest African / Hebrew emancipation of slaves in history! Every person of "African" descent should strongly consider this. We're all taught about the American Revolution (1765 - 1783), the French Revolution (1789 - 1799), the Russian Revolution of 1917 and even the Chinese Revolution (also known as the Chinese Civil War) (1927 - 1949). There are of course many revolutions in history. But it is amazing that the Haitian Revolution (1791 – 1804) is hardly heard of at all..since Haiti shook the world by becoming the very first free Black Republic in the world..way back in 1804, because of this revolution.
