MERCI LE ROI CHRISTOPHE, for your foresight, for your vision for a great Haiti even if others did not share it.
MERCI, CHRISTOPHE for giving Haiti something to show to the world other than our current poverty.
MERCI, CHRISTOPHE Hopefully, we will make you proud and claim our title as Pearl of the Antilles.
MERCI, CHRISTOPHE, May your name reign in the pantheons of History.
I love this nighttime shot. The weight of history on your shoulders. So beautiful and majestic.
Is the great negro king who stood against the mulatto ruled south...turning in his grave????
I don't think so, he would have say something like " Bon nou pat vle wè'm, kounya se lakay am nou vini, nou kon bouch nou "
YEP!
I am confused by my HXers...don't these people have the right to rent or use this public gem? I can think of how middle class or rich blacks now can rent a colonial period mansion (especially in the south) for fabulous weddings? Should they worry about the past, the white owner or how the mansion was built of the backs of slaves and not host their events there? Or how about black migration into areas that they couldn't lived or worked before?
I see racism all over the snide commentaries that have been posted based on the pictures and frankly hypocrisy laced with a dash of jealousy. I'll tell you some black people, Haitians included like to cry racism this, racism that but all the while they suffer from the same mental illness.
This is ridiculous i ve tried very hard not to comment on stupid stuffs for most of the time that when i saw them on this website cause every1 have the right to their opinions but htis one i am not gonna let it go cause this is too much..
For the past times i ve noticed a lot of hatered toward any haitians with a slightly light skins or white haitians or arrabs descent.. by a lot of hx users ...wich i laughed most of the time cause most the time you can see for most they have never been to haiti or has left haiti at an early ages...
Seriously Recent Arab/Mulatto marriage in Negro Kristof’s palace???????
1-For your knoledges Christophe the king Christophe was a mulatto himself so b4 making any stupid comments do some researches learn the history of the country that you claimed to defend..
and Haiti is not a 100% black country rather you like it or not.... haitian history is very different from american history the black vs white concept of haiti is very different from the amrican concept so please please becareful next time for comments in regards cause you are misleading a lot of people you are making a fool of yourself in front of haitian natif natal like me who knows he's history like the abc who understand the meaning of being haitians. people like me who finaly understand that being born in haiti or from any haitian parents doesn't make you a haitian cause a real haitian is a process it's a state of mind that's what most of us don't get that's why y'all are wasting your time in such topics...
2- And the Haitian Revolution was the union between black and mulatto so without one or another it wouldn't be possible.. Why do you think that the union fait la force was written on the flag...for...So the country is for the Blacks and The mulatto rather you like it or not
3- I saw somewhere here someone saying that hte first flag of haiti was red and bleu wich is completely false .... the first haitian flag was RED and Black wich is the true haitian flag...
Dessalines flag
The Red and bleu flag represent " l'union des affranchis" leading by Petion and co... the red black is very meaningful but this is another story....
and Haiti is not only an african descent country we had the Arrawarks the Tainos as a forefathers too this is are history our heritage by acknowledge one part and leaving another one this is not history so what do you think The Emepror Dessalines choose The name Haiti for he could have choose another name a african name he did so imo to let us know that We haitians are from different places races heritages...
not saying that here isn't race problems in haiti but this is another subjects...
Some or most people here are so full of S.. hates and negatives thoughts that no matther what happen is haiti they will probably see something wrong to say about it... gees ... there's a creole proverb saying" si ou pa gen anyen serye pou di pela"......
What don't you people see this as an opportunity to sale haiti to sale milot as a wedding destination ??? why always trying to bring the black mulattoe card.. the palace been there over a century why none of you so call diaspora black lovers etcc.. mulatto haters have ever thought of doing something there....??? why? why not ? Why can't you say for once some pretty nice pictures of haiti are taking so the world can't see??? In my eyes this is a real nice big opportunity for haiti if of course the money goes in the right pocket or even if the foods the things are from the local village.. imagine if 10 -500 weddings a year at milot what htis would represent for the north for milot , y;all always complaining about our poverty imagine what that would represent... so please think before saying s....t geez
The real problem of Haiti the best county ever are haitians themselfs cuz most of them really don't get it the concept of haiti the concept of being haitians it takes century to be a "peuple" a real one a " strong nations" but us hummm we are very far cause because of people like you.....
And of course i know none of you would understand or would pretend to see mistakes in my sayings but i address what i always wanted to say here... you people most of you are making other nations laugh at us why cause haitian love to hate haitians ...se sel ayisyen ki pou ta chita ap pale chak jou mal de pwop peyi yo pwop gouvenman yo plenyen san aji tout bagay pa bon... se sel ayisyen ki pale peyi yo mal krache sou kilti yo otan ke ayisyen pa gen lot nasyon.... so i don't think Haiti's problems are economical problems policals problems haiti's problems are haitians like you narrow minded haitians haitians that didn't understand that the black vs mulatto issues has been solved since 1804....
anyway.... SE toujou men'm moun yo ki ap pale toujou men'm yo ki ap plenyen kritike ...
And by the way i am a proud Haitian yon natif natal wi yon neg nwe ti zorey ki konen ki kote li e ki kote li vle ale...

Really?
Where does it state that?
There are references to his being mixed, but he was NOT a mulatto.
Somewhere in Moreau De St Mery's list of racial classes, you will find Christophe, but not as a mulatto.
Christophe was 200 hundreds years ahead of his time and still counting.
He despised the French, and always signed his name "Henry", and NEVER "Henri", for that reason.
He did not address people who called him "Henri" either.
It is insulting, that in Northern Haiti, they have misspelled his name at the university in his honor.
And by the way i am a proud Haitian yon natif natal wi yon neg nwe ti zorey ki konen ki kote li e ki kote li vle ale...
Sorry for my broken english btw.
Your broken english is not a problem.
What you should worry about is your nonsense about Kristof being a mulatto........if Kristof was a mulatto, then Haiti is 70%+ mulatto.
