Georges Biassou (1741, Haiti – 1801, Saint Augustine, Florida) was an early leader of the 1791 slave rising in Saint-Domingue that began the Haitian Revolution. With Jean François and Jeannot, he was prophesied by the vodou priest, Dutty Boukman, to lead the revolution. #haiti #haitian #haitianhistory #ayiti #quisqueya #bohio #saintdomingue #haitianhero
Haitian Flag Day! | May 18 🌴đź‡đź‡ą
Catherine Flon is regarded as one of the symbols of the Haitian Revolution and independence. She is celebrated for sewing the first Haitian flag in 1803 and maintains an important place in Haitian memory of the Revolution to this day.
According to Haitian revolutionary tradition, Flon created the country’s first flag on the last day of the Congress of Archaye, on May 18, 1803. There, the leader of the Revolution, Jean-Jacques Dessalines, Flon’s godfather, cut apart a French tricolor with his sabre, demonstrating his desire to break away from France. He gave the pieces to Flon, who stitched them back together, while leaving out the central white strip. In Haitian lore, the colors of the new flag took on a racialized meaning: the blue and red stripes represented a union between the black and mulatto citizens of Haiti.
Joseph Balthazar Inginac, 1843 | (also known as Balthazar Inginac) (1775 in Leogane - 1874) in Leogane - was a Haitian diplomat and member of the presidential inner circle. He served as the secretary-general for the two longest-serving presidents, Alexandre Petion and Jean-Pierre Boyer. This was a position similar to present-day Chief of Staff. #haiti #haitian #haitianhistory #haitianhero #ayiti #quisqueya #bohio #baltazar #iginac
