The Haitians won their independence from France back when Napoleon was too occupied with wars elsewhere in Europe. One of their first activities after tracking down and killing anybody who even looked mixed blood white was to invade their Dominican neighbors.

Dominican wanted nothing to do with these whack-jobs and have hated them ever since.

After Napoleon was defeated for the second time (Waterloo) and exiled to St. Helena, the world got together and decided what to do about, among other things, the Haitian problem. Because their behavior had been so wicked and genocidal, the United States went along with no trade sanctions unless Haiti paid repatriations. In exchange, Europe accepted the Monroe Doctrine. Haiti has blamed their poverty on those reparation payments ever since even though they ended over 150 years ago.

Haiti is the prime example of blacks governing themselves. Haiti is what BLM and the Democrats are working towards. Democrats think blacks will always vote for them but the example of Haiti towards the whites that helped them is ignored.

Yep, it’s amazing. Small island, half black, speaking a kind of French and half Spanish-speaking mestizo. One half a perennially destitute failed state and the other half a relatively (for a Caribbean nation) successful nation. The aerial shots look similar to the border between the Koreas.

But of course Haiti’s problems are 100% due to racism. /s

Didn’t know this history. Thanks; I also agree with #16 too.
