On this day, 19 September 1793, during the Haitian Revolution, 600 British soldiers sent from Jamaica landed at Jérémie, Haiti. They were welcomed by the white French property owners, who had signed a secret accommodation with Britain. In exchange for their support, Saint Domingue would become a British colony. Slavery would be reinstated, people of colour would be stripped of citizenship, and the conditions of Britain’s economic policies would favor the colonists.

On this day, 10 September 1943 in Piombino, Italy, a popular uprising took place against the Nazis who occupied the city following the Italian fascist surrender. Piombino was a working class steel town with a great libertarian tradition and a tradition above all of revolutionary syndicalism. Among the anarchists who took part in the uprising was Adriano Vanni.
