Laurent Dubois: The Haitian Revolution

Duke University historian Laurent Dubois discusses slavery, culture, and ideology in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, which upon the triumph of its revolution in 1804 became the nation of Haiti -- the first and only country established through a slave rebellion. He explores the widely divergent notions of freedom that developed in Haiti and the United States, and compares their deeply distinct declarations of independence -- the first two such documents in world history. Professor Dubois won the 2005 Frederick Douglass Book Prize for his account of the Haitian Revolution, A Colony of Citizens: Revolution and Slave Emancipation in the French Caribbean, 1787-1804 (UNC Press, 2004). His latest book, Haiti: Aftershocks of History, examines the country since the Revolution, and was named one of the 100 Notable Books of 2012 by the New York Times. Professor Dubois has written on Haiti for the Los Angeles Times, The Nation, and the New Yorker, among other publications, and serves as the co-director of the Haiti Lab at Duke University's Franklin Humanities Institute.
