    Extractions: by Robert G. Miller August 14 - 21, 2004 A nationally noted political activist, Ron Daniels, is drumming up support in New Orleans for a cruise to Haiti in 2004 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Haitian Revolution. The cruise, tentatively scheduled for August 14-21, 2004, will feature an international black arts and cultural festival on sea and land. Several community leaders from New Orleans will be involved, including former New Orleans Mayor Marc Morial, Badi Murphy, associate producer of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, Ron Chisom, executive director of The People's Institute for Survival and Beyond, and Mtumishi St. Julien, a community activist. In a recent visit to New Orleans and briefing at the Ashe Cultural Center, Daniels, executive director of the Center for Constitutional Rights in New York City, said the largest slave rebellion in the Western Hemisphere was brought to a close in 1804 as Haitian rebels defeated, in succession, military forces from Spain, Britain and France. Daniels said it was a proud day for the former French slave colony, and the defeat ended Napoleon's quest to conquer the world.

From this wave we get the Tumba Francesa and the Haitian roots music in Cuba. Haitian tradition contains a strong strain of Dahomey and Congo, both of which are present in Cuba. Haitian Rada is Cuban Arara, the Dahomey tradition. More recently, Cuba is perhaps the only country to have welcomed so many Haitians fleeing the persecution of the Generals and their savage regime. There are reportedly over 300,000 recent arrivals in Cuba. And Creole, which is still spoken by descendants of the earlier waves, is Cuba's second language, with a Creole radio station in Havana. There are a number of Haitian roots groups playing in Cuba, including Ban Rrarra and Desandann Today, Cuba has several viable Haitian cultural organizations, includin

The C Sharp band, comprising current and former students of the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts, also attended the ceremonies, which were marred by violence. The Haitian ministry of culture specially invited the group, which reportedly gave stirring renditions of various Jamaican musical forms to a capacity crowd in front of the National Palace. Black... represented Jamaica at Haiti's bicentennial celebrations Fresh from representing the country at Carifesta earlier in 2003, the group played a variety of current hits and folk music alongside bands from Brazil, the Dominican Republic, and a dance group from Benin to "rapturous applause", according to Sydney Bartley, director of culture in the Ministry of Education, Youth and Culture. Bartley accompanied the group to Haiti. The celebrations were, however, marred by clashes between supporters of Haitian President Jean Bertrand Aristide and government opponents who accused the president of trying to establish a dictatorship and using the bicentennial for his own purposes.

Garbage, chickens and the black tarp roofs of the makeshift huts inhabitants call home along the streets make for an interesting, moving mosaic of the Third World. This is a different realm. The decision to travel there was spontaneous and instantly seemed to sit well in my soul. It was on the way home from a weekend working at a homeless shelter that going to Haiti was mentioned. Phil, my new youth pastor, was a man of refreshing intensity and the will to push us from the comfort and idleness of ignorance into uncomfortable new growth territory. The trip Phil planned would take him into an orphanage in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. I was anxious to accompany this man I so respected to a world I had never seen.

    Extractions: MARY A. RENDA: Taking Haiti: Military Occupation and the Culture of U.S. Imperialism 1915-1940. Chapel Hill and London: The University of North Carolina Press, 2001. Mary Renda’s book about the United States occupation of Haiti between 1915 and 1934 addresses two different questions: how US culture was used in the justification of the occupation and how military presence in Haiti contributed to the transformation of culture in the US between 1920 and 1940. It is not a history of the occupation, nor does it purport to explain the causes or effects of it, although enough background is provided to make the book accessible to non-specialists on Haiti. For those wanting to learn about Haiti, the most interesting part of the book is the one dealing with the occupation itself. Renda’s analysis enhances our understanding of such conspicuous facts as the use of violence and the racism expressed by the marines when dealing with the local population. The (yet unproven) thesis has sometimes been advanced that a majority of the soldiers in the occupation force are likely to have been Southerners, who “knew” how to deal with blacks. Renda has an alternative explanation: paternalism. Underlying the perceptions and actions of the marines was the belief that Haitians were not capable of forging their own destinies but needed guidance from a more advanced nation.

    http://uncpress.unc.edu/chapters/renda_taking.html
    
    Extractions: An occupation is, in one sense, a temporary arm of the state created to carry out a series of specific tasks. In this case, those tasks were to bring about political stability in Haiti, to secure U.S. control over Haiti with regard to U.S. strategic interests in the Caribbean, and to integrate Haiti more effectively into the international capitalist economy. Of course, supporters of the occupation, and those responsible for it, proposed that these goals would also bring about specific gains for Haiti. They pointed, for example, to the work of the Navy Medical Corps and to the construction of roads, bridges, buildings, and telephone systems under the marines' supervision.[4] With these changes, U.S. policy makers indeed sought to create an infrastructure to serve as the foundation for economic development and modernization. They also professed the hope that on this basis a new Haitian democracy would flourish. On the ground, cross-cultural dynamics complicated Washington's script for the occupation. Some members of the Haitian elite initially cooperated with the U.S. military, even viewing their presence as potentially helpful, but other Haitians, long suspicious of foreign powers and of government in general, were less eager to play their parts. Many Haitians adopted a watchful stance in relation to the invading

96. The UNC Press, Taking Haiti By Mary A. Renda
    Pathbreaking and provocative, Taking haiti illuminates the complex interplaybetween culture and acts of violence in the making of the American empire.  
    http://uncpress.unc.edu/books/T-4661.html
    
    Extractions: The U.S. invasion of Haiti in July 1915 marked the start of a military occupation that lasted for nineteen yearsand fed an American fascination with Haiti that flourished even longer. Exploring the cultural dimensions of U.S. contact with Haiti during the occupation and its aftermath, Mary Renda shows that what Americans thought and wrote about Haiti during those years contributed in crucial and unexpected ways to an emerging culture of U.S. imperialism. At the heart of this emerging culture, Renda argues, was American paternalism, which saw Haitians as wards of the United States. She explores the ways in which diverse Americansincluding activists, intellectuals, artists, missionaries, marines, and politiciansresponded to paternalist constructs, shaping new versions of American culture along the way. Her analysis draws on a rich record of U.S. discourses on Haiti, including the writings of policymakers; the diaries, letters, songs, and memoirs of marines stationed in Haiti; and literary works by such writers as Eugene O'Neill, James Weldon Johnson, Langston Hughes, and Zora Neale Hurston.

Chirac. “And look at ze wonderful benefits that French culture has given to Haiti. An average life expectancy of 28, a gross domestic product of $1.32, and an advanced health care system that has produced the least overweight population in ze world outside of Zimbabwe. Ze Americans cannot even begin to compare with Haiti.” In related news, Haitian opposition leader Jean-Louis Weedwhacquere of the Alliance Contre Rationalisme, said at a press conference today that if his party is victorious in the next election he will outlaw the use of electricity, which he claims is a symbol of Anglo-Saxon oppression and cultural chauvinism.
