Haitian Revolution

This is Haitian Revolution. This is a painting of the African People dancing over a Fire part of the Voodoo Ritual and there's a Woman on a Pig's Back holding out a Knife! And there's another Painting of all the envlaved Africans were fighting the Europeans when they were empowered by Voodoo and the Forts were on fire! It's bad and cruel when the People from West Africa became Slaves when they get to Virginia in 1619 by Boat part of the African Slave Trade before the Abolition of Slavery. You see, that Vodou ritual took place in Bois-Caïman on 14 August 1791 at which the participants swore to overthrow the slave owners. After this ritual they massacred whites living in the local area, sparking the Revolution according to the historical Legend. Afro-Haitians are the People between West Africa and Haiti and they adopted other aspects of French colonial culture. There's also Napoleon Bonaparte the French Emperor who ordered the troops, led by Charles Leclerc, into the colony in 1801 amid growing Rebellion.
