Description
Haiti Will Not Perish: A Recent History is a detailed and moving account of Haiti's tumultuous history. The world's first independent black republic, forged in the fire of its successful slave revolution, has struggled to fulfill its promise of freedom and equality. For over two decades, Michael Deibert has reported on Haiti, chronicling the heroic struggles of Haitians to build their country in the face of overwhelming odds. Drawing on hundreds of interviews with key figures, including politicians, diplomats, advocates, and ordinary citizens, this book provides a vivid and complex analysis of Haiti's recent history. Through its pages, Deibert sheds light on the challenges faced by Haiti, from economic inequality and environmental degradation to the devastating impact of natural disasters like the 2010 earthquake. A gripping and thought-provoking read, Haiti Will Not Perish is an essential introduction to this pivotal moment in Haitian history.
