Dr. William Pierce - The Lessons of Haiti
Haiti, previously known as Saint-Domingue and administered by the French, was the most opulent colony in the New World in the 18th century. Its extremely fertile soil created an abundance of crops, attracting thousands of White French settlers. Unfortunately, African black slaves were introduced to assist with the job.
The craziness of the French Revolution, with its truly insane notion of racial equality, gripped many Frenchmen in the late 1700s, and the Black plantation laborers were encouraged to revolt. When they did, they mercilessly slaughtered every white man, woman, and child in the colony and declared Haiti a republic. What had been the richest and most productive portion of the New World quickly reverted to an African level of squalor, misery, and poverty. The roads and cities established by the French fell into disrepair. An unusually African blend of anarchy and authoritarianism replaced French law and order.
A little more than a century later, in 1915, following an unusually chaotic and brutal time, U.S. Marines were brought into Haiti to impose order. The motivation for sending them was to protect American corporate interests in Haiti, despite President Wilson's claim that the Marines were being deployed to "bring democracy to Haiti." For 19 years, the Marines were stationed in Haiti. They not only maintained political stability, but they also built schools and hospitals, a sophisticated telephone system, and almost 1,000 miles of paved roads with 210 bridges. Haitian teachers and medics were trained by the US government. We truly provided the Haitians with a foundation for a new beginning.
