    The History of Haiti: Roots
    by Mikelson Toussaint-Fils
    After the arrival of the Spaniards in 1492, the native Taino population dwindled due to the hard work and diseases brought by the Europeans. To exploit the island's resources, the Spanish and French forcibly brought African slaves to Haiti. The slaves rebelled and in 1804 declared their independence, founding the world's first black republic. The majority of black Haitians today are of West African descent, with significant roots among the Fon, Akan, Yoruba, Igbo, Kongo, and Mandinka peoples.
    In this episode, we will take a detour through Africa to better understand the ethnic origins and history of the Africans who will take possession of the island of Haiti after the Battle of Vertière.

      I went to school in Giyana in the 70’s and 80’s and I took Caribbean History classes for at least two years. African history is part of Caribbean history. We also learnt about African American history.
      Some of my text books in high school were:
      The Making of The West Indies and The People who Came books 1,2 and 3. Then in Literature, we read about the Maroons of Jamaica etc. Caribbean History and Literature classes DO teach our history.
      I live in the US but bought those text books for my children to use for research purposes and writing papers while they were attending school in the United States.

You must not hear that in the 1800s, colonizers put people on boats and shipped them to Africa. Just like Liberian who were called the American Indians. Traditionally, every other people's experience.

      Fon people are the basis of Haitian Ancestry. The Kongos came later due to civil war and were mostly placed in the Northern region of Haiti. The Southern region have higher Ancestry from present day Nigeria. My father's side is Kongo, specifically mbundu, and my mother's side is Fon/Yoruba/Igbo/Edo. My mom side of the family have roots on Southern Haiti and my Father's side of the family have roots in Northern Haiti. Most diaspora can trace to many African tribes but certain regions will have more of a certain tribe than others. It wouldn't make sense and say Haitians are ___, when we vary by region. Same can be said about African Americans.

      Yes, but although the Moors and Israel looked alike, we are not exactly the same people. We are both Shemites, but the Moors would have been the children of Ishmael and also the children of Keturah who was from North Africa and had children with Abraham. Ishmael and Abraham descendants would have carried E1b1b. This is why although there was peace between the Moors and the Brews for a long period of time, there became a division between these two groups eventually. We are both descendants of Abraham (but only the Moors who carried E1b1 downstream because there were also J carriers and other genetic mixture among the Moors due to mixing with Japhetic groups).

    Africa being the richest continent due to it’s natural resources Africans continue to be poor due to the exploitation, slavery, and colonialism of Africa. Yes Africa is the black nation, some blacks refused to accept being descendants of that continent due to the negativity being portrayed of that continent. If Africa would been the industrial nation the world would look in a different way even black people themselves. I believe with all natural resources in that continent it is there for reason. Black peoples shouldn’t be ashamed to be whom they are, it starts within us to respect and to value ourselves!

    Africans were being taken to the middle east before the transatlantic slave trade became a thing. Thus the reason there are black Arabs in Saudi Arabia nowadays. Awesome video, love learning about Hatian history, my grandfather came from Haiti to Dom Rep.

      Transatlantic slave trade was mainly the west Africans and central Africans they were enslaved to the united states, south America, the Caribbeans... while Arab slave trade affected few east Africans mostly Kenyans they were taken to Arab countries.they weren't as many as transatlantic slave trade that affected west Africans and central Africans..these two slavery periods are very different.happend different times . your comment to this video not needed

      @@karine-ela I’m pretty sure the comment section is free for all of us so long as we keep it respectful. You’re not telling me anything I don’t know already. The video creator tried to make it sound like the history of slavery started with the transatlantic slave trade, thus my comment about previous slavery history connected to Africa.

      Facts and that’s need more light shined on it because I see how they love to act is if they didn’t come in to the motherland and did what the European people did to us the Arabs did it way before and forced there religion and over ways of life on us
