A banner autumn for Haitian revolutionary history. The Garrigus book is fantastic, and can’t wait to read Sara Johnson. Have also ordered Marlene Daut’s Awakening the Ashes, and looking forward to that as well.

I had the pleasure of hosting Dr. @JohnGarrigus on the latest episode of the Nèg Mawon Podcast!

We had a captivating conversation about #Mackandal, the role of community in revolution, and resistance against slavery in colonial Haiti.

I just received John Garrigus' new book about slave resistance before the Haitian Revolution. My lovely wife is a former student of Dr. Garrigus at the University of Texas at Arlington.

I look forward to interviewing him about his new book on Haiti Then & Now.

By engaging presentism not dismissing it: https://t.co/oVm4Zw6H7Z

Notable that anti-presentism is mostly anglophone, often ideological and palpably presentist in motivation.

"Would one study history at all without the impulse of the present?" (Ranke--yes, that Ranke).

On August 15 I'll be joining a discussion about recent New York Times stories covering the indemnity Haiti paid to France. We'll talk about how journalists and historians can work together. Please join us!
