The Louisiana purchase was because of Haiti?! Bull sh$&. , Haiti just showed France couldn’t hold on to it if the Americans took it! The same way the British took québéc and failed to take Haiti! They were not about to lose a third time with out getting paid!
France couldn’t afford it anymore and they sold it to United States. America didn’t “take” it. America and France had a good relationship the French helped USA during the American Revolution so no they didn’t take it they bought it. Hence the title the Louisiana “PURCHASE” 🤦🏾♂️.
Very interesting presentation. I appreciate the alternative narrative bringing to light Haiti's history.
Possibly the best Ted talk I have ever seen
Bravo 👏
🥱
why the yawn face? 🤨
