Histoire : Origine de la haine des Dominicains contre les Haïtiens d'après Dario Brooks de la BBC
Histoire : Origine de la haine des Dominicains contre les Haïtiens d’après Dario Brooks de la BBC
Alors que presque tous les territoires coloniaux d’Amérique rêvaient à peine d’indépendance, il y a deux siècles, Haïti était déjà un pays libre. Le territoire français de Saint-Domingue devient en 1804 le premier pays autonome de la région latino-américaine et caraïbe, et vient d’être baptisé d’un nom taïno, Haïti. Ce fut un combat exceptionnel dans l’histoire du monde : des esclaves d’origine…

Gene Tierney, 1940s
"Among those living sculptures, one ray of light stood out: Judy Garland, the Piaf of the New World. All the misery of mankind seemed to float in her eyes.
On a sofa sat the loveliest creature: Gene Tierney. I was trying to flirt with her when Charles Boyer took me aside: “Watch your step, she’s a married woman. It simply isn’t done here.” What a strange country!"
-Jean-Pierre Aumont, Sun and Shadow, autobio (1977)

Federation of the Andes
The Federation of the Andes was a nation proposed by Simón Bolívar in 1826 that would consist in a union between the nations “liberated” by him.
There was a proposal to organize the Federation in 6 states: Colombia would be divided in 3 states (Ecuador, Nueva Granada and Venezuela), while Peru would be divided in two states (North and South). It was also planned to give away the Peruvian coast from Tacna to Tarapaca to Bolivia, exchanging it for Apolobamba and Coapacabana. Each state would be divided into departments, the departments into provinces and the provinces into cantons (not shown). As for the capital, it would be Quito or Guayaquil.
Regarding the government, there would be a "Supreme Chief for Life" with the power to inherit the leadership to whomever he wanted, a tricameral federal parliament and an authoritarian, centralized and militarized administration. It was a monocracy strongly inspired by the Consulate of Napoleon Bonaparte and the regime of the Haitian Jean Pierre Boyer.
The project failed due to the rejection of the Peruvians and the political crisis that occurred in Colombia. In January 1827, while Bolívar was in Colombia to defeat the separatist attempts, an uprising overthrew his government in Peru and the Bolivarian Constitution was abolished in June of that same year, prohibiting his entry and losing all his influence in Peru. The next country to lose Bolivarian influence would be Bolivia, after the Peruvian invasion in 1828, which ended with the overthrow of Antonio José de Sucre, Bolívar's right-hand man. Finally, Gran Colombia would end up completely disintegrating in 1830.

i wonder whether jean-pierre boyer—president of haiti and the first head of state to recognise the independence of greece—was aware of the historically warm relations between france and turkey. obv the franco-ottoman alliance was dead in the water by the 1820s, but i like to think boyer was led by the idea of like... an alliance of indentured nations against the paris-istanbul axis, or something, when he chose to extend his recognition to the fledgling greek state

Durante a 2ª Gerra Mundial, Paris foi ocupada pelos nazistas (1940-1944). Quando a guerra já estava perdida para a Alemanha e o avanço dos aliados para recuperar a capital francesa era inevitável, partiu uma ordem do próprio Hitler para incendiar Paris totalmente, incluindo seus monumentos e museus. Entretanto, o próprio comandante alemão em Paris não acatou esta ordem, pois considerou inútil tal sacrifício.

Is Paris Burning? (aka Paris brûle-t-il ?) is a 1966 film about the liberation of Paris in August 1944 by the French Resistance and the Free French Forces during World War II.
A French-American co-production, it was directed by French filmmaker René Clément, with a screenplay by Gore Vidal, Francis Ford Coppola, Jean Aurenche, Pierre Bost and Claude Brulé, adapted from the 1965 book of the same title by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre.
The film stars an international ensemble cast that includes French (Jean-Paul Belmondo, Alain Delon, Bruno Cremer, Pierre Vaneck, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Leslie Caron, Charles Boyer, Yves Montand), American (Orson Welles, Kirk Douglas, Glenn Ford, Robert Stack, Anthony Perkins, George Chakiris) and German (Gert Fröbe, Hannes Messemer, Ernst Fritz Fürbringer, Harry Meyen, Wolfgang Preiss) stars.
All sequences featuring French and German actors were filmed in their native languages and later dubbed in English, while all the sequences with the American actors (including Welles) were filmed in English. Separate French and English-language dubs were produced.

Ford is fine as was Emmanuelle Seigner, though I wonder if this could’ve used the eye of Brian De Palma rather than Polanski. **3.25/5** kevin2019: “Frantic” is an engrossing and well made film that easily builds up a genuine sense of mystery and intrigue from the very beginning. It is incredibly well crafted throughout with an immediately interesting opening gambit and Roman Polanski is a seasoned director and he knows precisely how to create a natural and rhythmic momentum to the proceedings and to then successfully maintain it at a certain level without any evidence of indecision on his part in terms of how the film ought to proceed in order to achieve its maximum potential and effectiveness. This results in a splendid film that effortlessly retains a compelling quality until the very end and it provides the perfect showcase for the romantic city of Paris even though it also makes you pause for thought about visiting there on Valentine’s Day.

The Baron de Mackau of France presenting demands to Jean-Pierre Boyer, President of Haiti, in 1825
In recent weeks, thousands of refugees from Haiti have arrived at the U.S.-Mexico border, desperate for a better life. Most left Haiti years ago, after a 2010 earthquake ravaged what was already one of the most dismal economies in the world. They had originally settled in places like Chile, but the politics of the region have made them feel unwelcome, discriminated against, and fearful of the future.
The Haitian refugees hoped the United States, under President Biden, would offer them a lifeline. They were wrong. The Biden administration has been sending thousands back to Haiti, even though Haiti is a disaster zone, and many of the refugees fled it years ago. Some of those the U.S. government forcibly sent to Haiti are kids who have never lived there.
Tens of thousands of migrants, many of them Haitians previously living in South America, have arrived in recent weeks in Mexico hoping to enter the United States.

The Haiti that refugees are being sent back to is a nation in crisis. With its unlucky coordinates on the map and its poor infrastructure, Haiti has been devastated by multiple hurricanes and earthquakes in recent years, including a 7.2 magnitude earthquake in August. In July, Haiti's president, Jovenel Moïse, was assassinated by Colombian mercenaries, some of whom had received U.S. military training. A Florida-based security company reportedly connected whoever wanted Moïse killed with the mercenaries, but the details of why Moïse was killed and who directed the mercenaries are still murky.
What is clear, however, is that Moïse's assassination continues Haiti's centuries-long political instability. In 2015, the World Bank concluded that Haiti's biggest political problem is that "a social contract is missing between the state and its citizens." Ambassador Foote, in his resignation letter, blasted the United States and other nations for contributing to this problem for the umpteenth time by unabashedly backing Moïse's unelected replacement, Ariel Henry. Henry was appointed Prime Minister by Moïse in July, and took on the additional role of President after Moïse's assassination. Haiti's chief prosecutor said he found evidence linking Henry to the president's killing, and Henry promptly fired him. Some Haitian authorities have asked Henry to step down and pleaded with the international community to stop supporting him. "This cycle of international political interventions in Haiti has consistently produced catastrophic results," Foote wrote.
Haiti is one of the poorest nations in the world, and rich countries have their fingerprints all over the nation's stunted development. The United States worked to isolate a newly independent Haiti during the early 19th century and violently occupied the island nation for 19 years in the early 20th century. While the U.S. officially left Haiti in 1934, it continued to control Haiti's public finances until 1947, siphoning away around 40% of Haiti's national income to service debt repayments to the U.S. and France.
Much of this debt to France was the legacy of what the University of Virginia scholar Marlene Daut calls "the greatest heist in history": surrounded by French gunboats, a newly independent Haiti was forced to pay its slaveholders reparations. You read that correctly. It was the former slaves of Haiti, not the French slaveholders, who were forced to pay reparations. Haitians compensated their oppressors and their oppressors' descendants for the privilege of being free. It took Haiti more than a century to pay the reparation debts off.
The Tragic Hope of Revolutionary Haiti
Haiti won its independence from France in 1804, and it was almost immediately made a pariah state by world powers. It was an independent, black-led nation — created by slaves who had cast aside their chains and fought their oppressors for their freedom — during a time when white-led nations were enforcing brutal, racist systems of exploitation around the world.
Haiti, then known as Saint-Domingue, had been the crown jewel of the French empire. It was the most lucrative colony in the whole world. French planters forced African slaves to produce sugar, coffee, and other cash crops for the global market. The system seemed to work well. That is, until the French and American revolutions helped to inspire, in 1791, what became the world's largest and most successful slave revolt. Against all odds, the slaves won. Former slaves sent slaveholders scurrying to France and America — and Haitians successfully fought back subsequent efforts to re-enslave them. Haiti was the first nation to permanently ban slavery.
But as a nation of freed black slaves, Haiti was a threat to the existing world order. President Thomas Jefferson worked to isolate Haiti diplomatically and strangle it economically, fearing that the success of Haiti would inspire slave revolts back home. With the invention and spread of the cotton gin, slavery was becoming much more lucrative at the very same time a free Haiti was coming into existence, and slaveholders in the United States and other countries clung to and expanded the inhumane means of production. Haitian success was perceived as a threat to this system for decades, and the United States didn't officially recognize Haiti until 1862, as slavery began being abolished.
[Editor's note: This is an excerpt of Planet Money's newsletter. You can sign up here.]
During Haiti's critical period of development, France intervened even more directly than the U.S. to thwart its success. In July 1825, the French King, Charles X, sent an armed flotilla of warships to Haiti with the message that the young nation would have to pay France 150 million francs to secure its independence, or suffer the consequences. That sum was 10 times the amount the United States had paid France in the Louisiana Purchase, which had doubled the size of the U.S.
Almost literally at gunpoint, Haiti caved to France's demands in order to secure its independence. The amount was too much for the young nation to pay outright, and so it had to take out loans with hefty interest rates from a French bank. Over the next century, Haiti paid French slaveholders and their descendants the equivalent of between $20 and $30 billion in today's dollars. It took Haiti 122 years to pay it off. Professor Marlene Daut writes it "severely damaged the newly independent country's ability to prosper."
Righting The Wrongs
After the 2010 earthquake completely devastated Haiti, scholars and journalists wrote a letter to the French president demanding that France pay back Haiti. The French economist Thomas Piketty resurrected the idea in 2020, arguing that France owes Haiti at least $28 billion. The French government, under multiple presidents, has balked at the idea, and it is unlikely to pay Haiti back anytime soon.
But if the rich world wants to help right the wrongs done to Haiti in the past, perhaps the most effective policy right now would be to accept more Haitian refugees. This wouldn't only be a humane policy that would improve their and their future families' lives. It would also likely be a boost to the Haitian economy. According to the World Bank, Haitian expatriates sent $3 billion in remittances back home to Haiti in 2018, which was almost one-third of the island nation's entire GDP.

Giroud, Thuram ou Kolo Muani ? Benzema exprime sa préférence !
Nous avons posé la question à Benzema : qui, entre Olivier Giroud, Marcus Thuram et Randal Kolo Muani, mérite une place de titulaire sur le front de l'attaque de l'équipe de France ? Il nous livre ses impressions et explique sons choix. Opportunité en or pour Thuram en Équipe Nationale Peu utilisé lors du dernier rassemblement de l'équipe de France, Marcus Thuram se retrouve désormais sous les projecteurs. En compétition avec des joueurs comme Randal Kolo Muani et Olivier Giroud, qui n'ont pas été particulièrement décisifs lors des derniers matchs, Thuram a une occasion en or de prouver sa valeur. Ses performances avec l'Inter Milan lui ont déjà valu des éloges et l'attention de Didier Deschamps. Cette situation pourrait bien le propulser sur le devant de la scène en sélection. Voir ensuite : - Liste de l'équipe de France : Présentation des nouveaux venus ! Soutien de Benzema à Thuram: Un vent de changement Karim Benzema, figure emblématique du football français, a exprimé son soutien à Marcus Thuram. Ce soutien est un signal fort pour le jeune joueur, illustrant la confiance que Benzema place en lui. Dans un contexte où Kolo Muani connaît des difficultés au PSG et en équipe nationale, et où Giroud, bien qu'efficace avec l'AC Milan, doit gérer l'impact de l'âge, Thuram se présente comme un remplaçant potentiel de choix. Thuram: Un titulaire probable contre Gibraltar Lors du prochain match contre Gibraltar, Marcus Thuram, fils du légendaire Lilian Thuram, est pressenti pour être titulaire. C'est une chance importante pour lui de démontrer son habileté et sa détermination. Une bonne performance dans ce match serait un argument de poids en sa faveur, notamment en vue de l'Euro 2024. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhs3Z_mdG1M Thuram, le futur numéro 9 de la France selon Jean-Pierre Papin Jean-Pierre Papin, une autre figure emblématique du football français, voit en Marcus Thuram un futur numéro 9 pour l'équipe de France. Ces propos ne sont pas anodins, ils reflètent le potentiel et le talent de Thuram, reconnus par les grands noms du football. Lire aussi : - Karim Benzema : Valérie Boyer appelle à lui retirer son ballon d'or En route vers l'Euro 2024 : La position de Thuram à affirmer selon Benzema Alors que l'Euro 2024 approche, la question de la composition de l'équipe de France et du choix des titulaires se pose. Kolo Muani, Giroud et Thuram sont tous susceptibles d'être présents, mais leur rôle exact reste à déterminer. Pour Thuram, les prochains matchs seront décisifs. Une bonne performance contre Gibraltar pourrait non seulement cimenter son statut en équipe nationale, mais aussi lui ouvrir la voie vers un rôle de titulaire. ________ Passionné de ballon rond ?
