@ Jean Andre: As a first generation born and raised in the US we can’t win with you... my GOD! If we PROUDLY say we’re Haitian then the Haitian born and raised is QUICK TO say “you’re not Haitian, you’re American” and if we we're American then you act like we’re “ASHAMED” of our family and roots. And now, you have a problem with the term “Haitian American”. I’m so tired of that nonsense. I will say I’m Haitian American as well! Too bad if you don’t like it, that’s your problem! I was BORN , RAISED, AND EDUCATED IN NY. I speak French AND Créole FLUENTLY thanks to the generation of my parents and the era I was born in. NY is where I know, and to be Haitian is the values , morals, languages, and cuisine of my family I know and enjoy! So YES! Haitian American is what I am!
@ Jean Andre: That’s ignorant ppl. And I get that too particularly from black Americans. However, I would point out to them that I clearly said I was born and raised in NYC and that my parents are Haitian. That’s on them if they can’t differentiate the two. They usually stand there looking stupid when I point it out. Your children have to learn how to handle ignorant close minded ppl like that. We’re US borns who are blessed to come from a rich culture and be multilingual. If ppl can’t comprehend that then that’s their problem. My birth certificate CLEARLY states Bklyn, NY. So they all can kick rocks.
I read that all countries at the time refused to trade with them. They feared a successful black country in the western hemisphere would encourage more slave uprisings.
@@renaissancewoman100 yes, a good book to read about this is "Island Under the Sea" about the Haitian Revolution. The French were so angry that the Black man fought for their freedom. According to them, they lost money and we're also made to accept defeat publicly. They wanted Haiti to pay for the rest of it's existence and not to flourish.
@@fanmrebel8316 of course, we came and I left my card and you ran to us to give back to me. Look forward to come again with our little daughter. Thanks for the video, I need some Haitian heritage material to transmit to my little princess.
Am jamaican I never knew that queen Marie was even black let alone Haitian. Thanks for bringing us this piece of history. I love the fact that all this hidden history is now coming to light.
I couldn't retain my tears watching this documentary. I would like to extend my gratitude to that historian, doctor Nicole, who spent precious time to dig out all that information just to bring princess Marie Louise Christoph alive to the memory of all haitians, who forget their roots and to cherish the freedom our ancesters left behind for them by sacrificing their own lives. May their souls rest in peace!

In Haiti we believe we family in Jamaica because the day we were fighting for our independence 10 tarzan haitian s ran to Jamaica as closest to scape the war between french and african which this what they call us. We haitian s only thing we have for Jamaican is love always.

I 💘 this documentary of the first Queen of Haiti 🇭🇹. Prior to today I was unaware of this valuable peice of history. Being of Haitian American background I'm more connected to American history. This documentary was very interesting to watch and has also made me more passionate about Haiti's history too. Haitians are survivors no matter where the country of residence happens to be. Praying for peace and love in ✌🙏Haiti.
I've been Haitian for 43 years old and i had no idea about this part of my story appreciate for upload thank you so much it's important to know your story and it's very crazy how much we gotta Digg to find out who we really are.
UK has had mixed race Queens since the 1300's and Queen Charlotte who had 13 children with King George III and all married royalty. Maybe the problem is that many British do not know the history of this country. I am British and I enjoy learning history from all over the world. I really enjoyed watching this video.
I'm thrilled to share this with my ESL students. I've a large community of Haitian students here in Montréal, and I love learning more about their cultural ans historical heritage.
I am impressed. An important piece of Haitian History little known, maybe not much cared for until now. Thank you to the producers and all involved in the production.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
I never knew this part of my people's history. Most of us Haitian Americans know very little about our parents history and the country at large. Thank you for bringing this valuable information to us. Mesi Anpil.
We all know who the 21 dislikes are they hate anything positive about our people but if it was some negative shit they would be more then happy to start their racist bull shit I don’t know why they even bother looking at our content because I could give to fucks about theirs if it’s not black put it back ❤️🖤💚✊🏿
I was pleased to learn more about King Christophe's widow and his daughters. Marie Louise unfortunately had a hard life. To survive all of her children and live in a foreign land, surely hostile. Thanks.
@@fanmrebel8316 what happened to both daughters of King Henry Christopher?...Thank you for this interesting video about the Queen Marie-Louise.Remember her father was the owner of the hotel"La Couronne"at Cap-Francais,it's where she met Henry.
@@satyricon55 Sadly they both pre-deceased her. Both died in Italy - the eldest in 1933 and the youngest in 1939. There is a beautiful obituary to Améthisse in the Gazzetta di Firenze which you can find on the Fanm Rebèl website.
The Royal Kingdom/family in Haiti and all over the Caribbean existed long before the west even know what monarchy was, they came and found us ruling and decided to invade and made many of our ancestors prisoners of war, never slaves!... These same warriors are called Maroons on other islands but they tend to leave out the fact that the inhabitants of the Atlantis Islands (including Haiti) had great and prosperous trading Empires prior to Columbus and the traitor crew navigators arrivals, who they called Moors. There is so much more to uncover. I am currently doing this for my country Waitukubuli- Dominica in the east, we speak similar creole. Many Hatian's live in my country, I never hear them talking about this. Even when I learnt the history of Haiti, they mentioned 'Christophe' but did not mention the fact that he was King and his counterpart Queen. so glad to know this and thanks to the historian who has dropped some more clues, it's up to us Caribbean Historians to keep digging.
This is such a remarkable story! and so thank you ever so much for sharing this bite of haitian History. Amazingly I have been living in the UK for few years now, but I never knew of this great haitian Queen who once upon a time lived in my neighbourhood, in South East London🤔 I'm so glad to know that I have that connection from the past, from one island to.an other. Many thanks for this short documentary, I really appreciate your work👍 Fleur.

Hello my Haitian brother and sista I’m American Haitian and I didn’t grow learning the culture but find out in early twenties from dad that was born there
@@guerlandej6044 The fact that a group of Haitian like you would say such a thing is demonic and hateful my grandmother, aunt and dad are Haitian you’re ignorant is un attractive cause no one on this earth is 100% of any race so chill on creole language and what is and isn’t
Good to know some of our people was living there. I am just glad because there a lot people that don't know about the Haitian culture and our people. We always label as poor country or poor black people. A lot people don't know that Haiti was once a rich country and the thing they have to go through to fight for their freedom. I believe in the future it will be different if we go in the right direction. Praying to God for that.
I am a Jamaican American living in the USA one of my best friend is Haitian descent I think the Haitian people are the most kind loving caring people I’ve ever met I love Haiti and it’s people.
Thank you for putting this together; I would also love to share this on my other RUclips channel and all over it is a must. I fight for my country and will continue to do so till change come.
Thank you for the great story of our ancestors , it's about time the haitian people hkno where they comes from . I really enjoyed it. Make me feel great. Thank you!!!
Love the piece of history that is shared. It keeps my head up as a young Haitian woman to know that that the sky is the limit to what many of us can do.🥰
This is so interesting. I did not even know that there is a Haitian Community in London. I did not know that there were people from that area of the Caribbean here.
@MySultrySounds Excuse me????? At no point was I disrespectful. You do not need to tell me to wake up and do my research. I said what I said I did not know there was a Haitian Community in the UK and why do I need to research that may I ask? I do not see Haitians at any major Afro-Caribbean events, not even Carnival where most if not all of the islands are represented. Oh please.
@MySultrySounds Okay my bad and yes my lineage does go back to the Transatlantic Slave Trade, as although born here, both of my parents are from the Caribbean. I and every Caribbean person are aware and cite with pride Haiti's accomplishments for which they are still being punished today by the powers that they successfully fought off. You are the only island in the Caribbean that has kept and fully embrace African Spirituality. Would that the other islands would do the same. Without African Spirituality Haiti would not have survived to this day despite the struggles faced. Have a blessed day Voodum.
Wow thank you very much that was breathtaking to learned a new story of Haiti 🇭🇹 I am so proud i think there are much more to learn 😀 about our insestors beautiful 😍 ❤ 💜 great video
Wow unbelievable story that our people and others need too know about us Haitian and our country I’m so excited to know about it really appreciate that
Beautiful presentation! I enjoyed the video which is very informative for me as a Haitian. I did not know there were Haitians living in UK. Thank you for the sharing! Please share more.
Beautiful Video. I suspect this location has been there for quite sometimes. Wish I knew during my traveling times visiting my son in Shropshire and Oxford. I am covered with goosebumps.
This public document shows everyone that we have never learned everything we need to learn and that a lot of learning happens throughout life. No matter how many years have passed, there is always something to learn as new. Now in 2021, two hundred years after the Haitian Queen Marie-Louise Christophe left Haiti to immigrate to England, many people can joining me in saying that we are learning something we did not know before concerning the life of Marie-Louise Christophe outside Haiti. Haitian history books did not extensively say much about her living in Haiti, let alone about her life in London. So I thank the Haitian Chamber of Commerce in Great Britain and Dr. Nicole Willson for this elaborate research and presentation.
high regards to Dr Nicole’s passion in the researches and achievements as it is truly a remarkable precious and priceless documentary 💖grand merci ā tous qui y ont participé 🙏🏾
My 10 years old son told me one time after visiting a Haitian party He said Mom’s you can remove Haitian from Haiti but you can’t remove Haiti from Haitian
Because ppl have been lying about pepole that where in power being black been doing it for years to be honest same as cleopatra shes black for me they'll never be able to hide what I already know research it interesting...
This was a wonderful documentary. I'm proud to see that even during this difficult time..having to travel to a foreign land she carried herself like the queen she was..until her last days🇭🇹👑
@@skylarblacc1660 I'm all for not white-washing history but honestly Cleopatra was not black. If you've done research into Egyptian dynasties, you'll see that she was the last ruler of the Ptolemaic Dynasty. She was the descendent of Alexander the Great, who was a Macedonian Greek. In fact, Cleopatra's native language was Greek and, she (revered for her intelligence) was the only Ptolemaic ruler to even learn the Egyptian language.
Thank you Sarah! I am working hard to unravel more about Marie-Louise's life in Haiti and in exile. It is a joy and an honour to do such work and to know that it is appreciated.

@@newyorkapple6192 I am with you. Very well said. Close mindedness is a huge problem in the Haitian community.
Historians need to really highlight WHY Haiti is poor. They fought for and then paid France to remain free...some of the same reasons Cuba is poor.
I read that all countries at the time refused to trade with them. They feared a successful black country in the western hemisphere would encourage more slave uprisings.

That’s not the sole reason but it’s a factor the other is political unrest and more historians need to unpack the political issues in Haiti

Thank you for your knowledge
You’re a great historian love ❤️🌹🇭🇹🇨🇦
Mèsi anpil!
This is so interesting. I did not even know that there is a Haitian Community in London. I did not know that there were people from that area of the Caribbean here.
@MySultrySounds Excuse me????? At no point was I disrespectful. You do not need to tell me to wake up and do my research. I said what I said I did not know there was a Haitian Community in the UK and why do I need to research that may I ask? I do not see Haitians at any major Afro-Caribbean events, not even Carnival where most if not all of the islands are represented. Oh please.
@MySultrySounds Okay my bad and yes my lineage does go back to the Transatlantic Slave Trade, as although born here, both of my parents are from the Caribbean. I and every Caribbean person are aware and cite with pride Haiti's accomplishments for which they are still being punished today by the powers that they successfully fought off. You are the only island in the Caribbean that has kept and fully embrace African Spirituality. Would that the other islands would do the same. Without African Spirituality Haiti would not have survived to this day despite the struggles faced. Have a blessed day Voodum.
Wow thank you very much that was breathtaking to learned a new story of Haiti 🇭🇹 I am so proud i think there are much more to learn 😀 about our insestors beautiful 😍 ❤ 💜 great video

Thank you so much... I tried researching this a few months back, but nothing as detailed and full of historical color as this piece. Thank you.
Great acts of the historic appreciation sharing to us by this Haitian american.thanks for it.
Beautiful presentation! I enjoyed the video which is very informative for me as a Haitian. I did not know there were Haitians living in UK. Thank you for the sharing! Please share more.
I did not either, the UK also has a small Latin American community. The world has come to the UK.
Beautiful Video. I suspect this location has been there for quite sometimes. Wish I knew during my traveling times visiting my son in Shropshire and Oxford. I am covered with goosebumps.
Are you Haitian? We have same surname but mine is Saint Louis
@@asnoguenld USA 🇺🇸!
Beautifully produced
Thank you John, and thank you for the kind use of the beautiful aerial image of Playford Hall!
Very interesting history this Gueen of north d’Haïti . Thanks You I like that
Thanks for the feed!🇭🇹🇨🇦
Very interesting history. It is still unfortunately sad to hear murders involved during that time. This should be noted.....
This public document shows everyone that we have never learned everything we need to learn and that a lot of learning happens throughout life. No matter how many years have passed, there is always something to learn as new. Now in 2021, two hundred years after the Haitian Queen Marie-Louise Christophe left Haiti to immigrate to England, many people can joining me in saying that we are learning something we did not know before concerning the life of Marie-Louise Christophe outside Haiti. Haitian history books did not extensively say much about her living in Haiti, let alone about her life in London. So I thank the Haitian Chamber of Commerce in Great Britain and Dr. Nicole Willson for this elaborate research and presentation.
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comments Harry! We were glad to be able to bring her story into the light.
high regards to Dr Nicole’s passion in the researches and achievements as it is truly a remarkable precious and priceless documentary 💖grand merci ā tous qui y ont participé 🙏🏾
Thank you for this ♥️
Very interesting👍
Thanks🌺
I wasnt expecting her to speak Creole back. 👍
Wonderful documentary. Let's uncover more of women's history, in general, and Haitian women's history more specifically.
Mèsi anpil zanmi m!
My 10 years old son told me one time after visiting a Haitian party He said Mom’s you can remove Haitian from Haiti but you can’t remove Haiti from Haitian
@@tinajj5680 This resonates so much with Marie-Louise’s story - a proud Haitian until the day that she died.
🤯 we have Haitians in England.....this is too much for me...I love it!!!!
There’s haitian everywhere.
Yh but they would absorbed and probably viewed as french african in uk as there is so many french african here. Unless they mention that they haitiano
@@carlenslaguerre They keep telling me that...still in disbelief 🤯
News flash! They're every where!
I am a Haitian in Russia.
Wonderful presentation! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this piece of amazing history ❤️
Make me question why the Duke of hastings is a blk man in that show the Bridgerton on Netflix
You said something here!!!
Because ppl have been lying about pepole that where in power being black been doing it for years to be honest same as cleopatra shes black for me they'll never be able to hide what I already know research it interesting...
Ou nan zin
This was a wonderful documentary. I'm proud to see that even during this difficult time..having to travel to a foreign land she carried herself like the queen she was..until her last days🇭🇹👑
@@skylarblacc1660 I'm all for not white-washing history but honestly Cleopatra was not black. If you've done research into Egyptian dynasties, you'll see that she was the last ruler of the Ptolemaic Dynasty. She was the descendent of Alexander the Great, who was a Macedonian Greek. In fact, Cleopatra's native language was Greek and, she (revered for her intelligence) was the only Ptolemaic ruler to even learn the Egyptian language.
Thank you dr Nicole, she was amazing job well done
Mèsi anpil Garry. She was indeed an extraordinary woman.
I am proud of my Queen Christophe!💐
This was so good!!
Love everything about this! More please❤
Thank you Sarah! I am working hard to unravel more about Marie-Louise's life in Haiti and in exile. It is a joy and an honour to do such work and to know that it is appreciated.
@@fanmrebel8316 Amazing, looking forward to more!
I am very grateful for that important document thank you very much
Proud to be Haitian. We are stronger together!! Its sad to see how our country turn out to be nowadays.
Thank you so much long live the Queen.
