Women and Revolution:

A few reading suggestions regarding women and gender in the world of the Haitian Revolution

Most scholars today would agree that the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804) was of transnational importance and greatly affected how ideas of natural rights, citizenship and liberty were articulated in the Atlantic world. Despite this newfound enthusiasm, the role of women within the revolutionary struggle is still understudied and indeed difficult to apprehend due to lack of sources. This very short reading suggestion list proposes looking at the role of women and ideas of gender during and immediately after the Haitian Revolution. (Feel free to add new titles to this list.)

I didn’t mean to build my home in you, I didn’t mean to change myself in order to love you. And yet here we are. And now I don’t know who you are. I don’t know who I’ve become.
