    Extractions: With introductions from Edwidge Danticat , Cauvin L. Paul and Max Manigat January 2004 will mark the bicentennial of the Haitian Revolution – one of the most important events in history relating to the struggle for freedom. Proudly garnering its title, “First Black Republic,” Haiti is an example of what results when a collective spirit deems freedom a necessary commodity. Although Haiti’s immediate history has been riddled with turmoil, its history still elicits a sense of great pride amongst its inhabitants as well as those in the Diaspora. revolution

    Extractions: Haiti Introduction Back to Top Haiti, independent republic occupying the western third of the island of Hispaniola, which it shares with the Dominican Republic, and bounded on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, on the east by the Dominican Republic, on the south by the Caribbean Sea, and on the west by the Windward Passage, which separates it from Cuba. Its area is 27,750 sq km (10,714 sq mi). Port-au-Prince is Haiti's capital and largest city. Official Name- Republic of Haiti 9 departments (departements, singular - departement); Artibonite, Centre, Grand'Anse, Nord, Nord-Est, Nord-Ouest, Ouest, Sud, Sud-Est Haiti People Back to Top The population of Haiti is 6,964,549 (2001 estimate), giving the country an overall population density of 251 persons per sq km (650 per sq mi). In arable areas, however, there are about five times more people than the average. Some 66 percent of the population lives in rural areas. Haitian Creole and French are the official languages. Creole is spoken by all Haitians and, with French, is used in drama, music, radio, television, politics, and religion. But written Creole is not widely accepted because the school system retains French as the main language of instruction. Creole is normally used in daily life, and French—mastered by perhaps 10 percent of the people—is used in more formal circumstances. Most of the vocabulary of Haitian Creole is derived from French, but its syntax is similar to that of some African languages and resembles the syntax of other creole languages of the Caribbean and the Indian Ocean.

29. Ile Ife Museum
    Contains art and artifacts that trace the migration of African people from the shores of West Africa to haiti and the Caribbean. Located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  
    http://www.columbia.edu/~jw157/ileife/ahc/ilemuse.html
    
    Extractions: For many years a copy of the Queen Mother (pictured above) gazed out over North Philadelphia from atop the Ile Ife Museum toward William Penn atop City Hall. For over 15 years between 1972 and 1988 the Ile Ife Museum was a mecca for African and African American art, housing a world class collection of West African materials as well as the work of local artists. The building was a gift to Ile Ife from what was then First Philadelphia Bank (now CoreStates), and with its Masonic design was on the registry of historic landmarks. When Ile Ife closed in 1989, the museum was gutted, abandoned and covered with graffiti. It was finally torn down in 1997. From the Museum's brochure in its heyday: The Ile Ife Museum Philadelphia The first Afro-American museum in Pennsylvania is a dream come true for those seeking to identify their roots and shape their destiny. A man without knowledge of his history is like a tree without roots. Housed in an historical landmark donated by the Philadelphia National Bank, the Museum contains art and artifacts that trace the migration of African people from the shores of West Africa to Haiti and the Caribbean to the contemporary flowering of the African American expression personified by the Ile Ife Center Ile Ife in the Yoruba language means House of Love. It is the Holy City of Yorubaland, the birthplace of the Orishas. Ile Ife of Philadelphia joins hands with the mother Ile Ife of Nigeria to bring our community the cultural enrichment that follows respect and appreciation for the arts and the humanities."

30. Windows On Haiti: Wisdom And Beauty In Haitian Vodou
    Essay by Dr. MarieJose Alcide Saint-Lot, a scholar of Haitian popular culture with graduate degrees from Brooklyn College and CUNY. This paper first presented at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.  
    http://haitiforever.com/windowsonhaiti/w98501.shtml
    
    Extractions: Marie-José Alcide Saint-Lot, Ph.D. This essay was read to an Educational Panel on Spirits in the Celluloid: Haiti, Hollywood, and the Mass Media, at the American Museum of Natural History, New York City, Nov. 15, 1998, for the Exhibit of the Sacred Arts of Haitian Vodou Dr. Marie-José Alcide Saint-Lot is a scholar of Haitian popular culture. She holds an MFA in Theater from Brooklyn College and a Ph.D. from the Graduate School of Theater at CUNY. Wisdom and Beauty in Haitian Vodou The spiritual splendor we are plunged into through this fascinating exhibit defies and calls into question the sordid and negative image imprinted on Haiti’s traditional religion. The compelling feeling of ecstasy, piety, of profound communion with the beyond which pervades these masterpieces not only lifts the mind and vibrates the soul, but also suggests that such marvelous inspiration could not have come from a destructive power. What then explains the hostility towards Vodou? The plight of Vodou in Haiti originates from the socio- economic conditions created by the colonizers to enrich themselves at the expense and to the detriment of the Negro slaves. As you know, political supremacy works hand in hand with cultural and spiritual supremacy. So, to insure their power, impose their values and establish their so-called superiority, the European rulers, from the 16th to the 19th century, made it their goal to strip the Blacks of their identity, of their humanity, undermine the African image and destroy African culture. Vodou as the religion of the slaves, the element of cohesion among them and their base of resistance, became a major target and suffered endless persecution. This persistent harassment had an impact which never totally disappeared. No wonder the media have been led to misrepresent Vodou as evil, barbaric, criminal.

    Extractions: and Katya Charles Barrett When you think of the charm of the Caribbean being shared abroad you think of many countries and cultures but has Japan ever been one of those places that might also be seduced by the sultry sounds of the Pearl of the Antilles? Well thanks to an extraordinary individual The Land of Rising Sun is slowly falling into the hypnotic trance of Haiti. With each beat of the drum, Japan is becoming a new frontier for Haitian art and artist alike. Being geographically far from the Caribbean, Japan is now an oasis for the budding taste of Haitian culture. Like the Pied Piper of long ago there is one man paving the way for Haitian culture in this distant land. Haiti recently celebrated fifty years of diplomatic relationship with Japan. Much of that alliance however, was merely symbolic and not as strong as we would have liked.
