Haiti: A Slave Revolution, 200 Years After 1804
Edited and Compiled by Pat Chin, Greg Dunkel, Sara Flounders and Kim Ives
Published by the International Action Center, New York, 2010
HAITI: A SLAVE REVOLUTION has recently been published. This is an updated and revised edition, which covers the abduction of Haiti
President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to the Central African Republic and
goes up through the devastating January earthquake.
This new edition exposes the U.S. role in the kidnapping of Aristide,
and its continuing occupation and exploitation of Haiti. It also
shows the role of the International Action Center with the Haiti
Support Network in sending a delegation to the Central African
Republic to meet with Aristide and his spouse, Mildred Trouillet
Aristide, and then publicizing worldwide what had occurred.
The book is being dedicated to the wonderful activist and writer
comrade Pat Chin, who was an editor of the book's first edition, to
those impacted by the January, 2010, earthquake and to the people of
Haiti whose courage and resistance have inspired the world.
Several new chapters are being added to the first book by authors
Abayomi Azikiwe, Larry Hales, Monica Moorehead, Saaed Shabazz, Greg Dunkel, Sara Flounders and Johnnie Stevens. There is a FIST statement and an IAC peition included.
This book is an important political resource, giving an
anti-imperialist history of Haiti, which goes up to 2010.
Activists, workers, students, intellectuals and professors will want
to have this book on literature tables, in classrooms, at all
political events and to promote it at various public meetings and
conferences. It is being published by the International Action
Center.
This book will make an important political contribution as we continue
to organize against imperialism's intervention in Haiti and its
attempts to stifle the people's movements there.
