World history on Khan Academy: Called the Great War (before World War II came about), World War I was the bloody wake-up call that humanity was entering into a new stage of civilization. Really the defining conflict that took Europe from 19th Century Imperial states that saw heroism in war into a modern shape. Unfortunately, it had to go through World War II as well (that some would argue was due to imbalances created by World War I).

The Hatian Revolution does not get the recognition it deserves!
I’m Haitian and Jean Jacques Dessalines is our Nation’s Father. And wasn’t a savage as they portrayed him and warned Toussaint not to go at the meeting where he was invited to, full of pride he went and was arrested
Dessalines was the true military genius.
Dessalines is a genius and definitely a true man of honor!
It's pretty uncontested that Dessalines was at least partially responsible for Louverture's arrest. Seems like a bit of hero worship is happening. Dessalines was not a 'savage', but hindsight is pretty clear that he was much the inferior to Toussaint in terms of pretty much everything. Louverture ran large parts of the island at multiple points. He also made an army out of irregular former slaves with no weapons and manipulated entire empires against each-other. Dessalines was a brilliant general, but not much more.
@@Revan579 because at the end Toussaint was working for the glory of France. And he was stupid for seeing himself as one of them. He as arrested like a slave not as the Title he held. Toussaint was too soft thinking every white men was Breda his former master! Dessalines former master had a reputation of breaking rebellious slaves. So they didn’t see life in the same lenses
@@oddvariation1541 I think it's debatable that he ever really saw himself as French, given his political maneuverings. Regardless, it's clear that he only worked for the French insofar as they promised the freedom of black people. He didn't necessarily see a free "Haitian nation" but he certainly saw an autonomous colony free of slavery. It also seems as if people forget that Rigaud betrayed both of them first.
Regarding the white people, yes, their perspectives were obviously different. Imo Toussaint both preferred non-violence and was planning for the future. He believed that the free black people needed at least a generation to be able to become culturally developed enough to administer the island, and he believed that France was the least bad of their enemies. Should they rebuke France, they're at the mercy of France and all of the colonial powers simultaneously, which happened to be what occurred. I think he wanted to develop the island under France before independence was even considered. He wanted all of it to happen under his plan though; that's why he expelled Sonthonax, because the latter was developing his own vision for the development of the island.
Haiti has a lot of natural resources. Haiti is not poor, but had some bad corrupted leaders supported by France, the US and Canada etc Haitians should not rely on his oppresors to help rebuild the country. They will never do it. They never digested that former enslaved people defeated the greatest army of that time. Haiti will be great again!
that debt to France, was disgusting... no wonder they are so poor...
So at what point do we start examining people's own culture and politics and stop blaming others for their problems?
@@Dragblacker When it becomes a relevant factor. It isn't in this instance.
@@xzodiayinzero5929 It never becomes a relevant factor for such people.
@@Dragblacker It hasn't been a relevant factor, though.
@@Dragblacker cut the welfare and stop engaging in other people's political affair, then you will not be blamed. As long as you continue to make them dependent economically, you can't asked them to be fully acoountable.
where is Part 3 and the others?
they didnt teach us this in school for a reason. the same reason they taught us only about europe and nothing about the empires of Africa
They even mention asian empires but no african ones and the egyptians are classified not as african but unknown
Warriors
It's useful to note that Rochambeau was doing what the colonists themselves did regularly to torture slaves. Such brutality was common before the revolution.
Haiti really could have done well if the United States had assisted and traded with them, but we did not want to encourage slave uprisings...
Like the phoenix .... We will rise out of the ashes...Haitian Kampe!
Instead of slaves could you use more appropriate verbiage like enslaved people
Thank u for your telling of this part of history.
This is certainly the most detailed and interesting video I've seen on Haiti independence. One aspect I would like to correct on the aspect of the debt. It was paid from 1825 until 1888, with interruptions from 1852. Haiti was occupied by the US from 1915 until 1934. Most of the economy of the country was under US control, the local currency linked to the dollars in 1922, all expenses and revenues under direct US administration (and benefit), customs were even under US control until 1946.

Awesome Video btw. I've not looked at these world history videos before. This is AWESOME. I'll have to watch through all of these.
It is very important to understand history, to not repeat the mistakes of the past.
To know what humans are capable of- both good and bad, and how things take shape.
To be able to interpret patterns you see in the present times, based on seeing instances of the same things seen in the past.
Of no consequence, but at 2:43, 4:35 Tobago is pronounced ToBAYgo. Just thought it was funny how even Sal pronounced it wrongly, as almost EVERYONE tends to LOL. I'm from Trinidad and Tobago.(one nation state)
soon i will put up the haiti history here for ya to see
@IIIKrazyKiDDIII I will try to give you a pronounciation of Toussaint L'ouverture's name. It is pronounced "Too Sain Loo Vair Tur"
A Short History on Haiti , very short and sweet, the real concept on the Haitian Revolution ........ Search in your RUclips engine
"Kwame Ture on the History of Haiti"---------------------
You seem to be an excellent history teacher as well.
Colonial history is a very interesting but complex topic. I hope you'll get around to cover South East Asia too.
this is true they had to pay reparations for their freedom. the first african nation recognized by europe was crippled from the get-go because they owed the french money for their freedom which may be reason why their economy never took off.
I look forward to seeing more Haitian history from you.
Dessaline was never a Traitor khan !!!!
Haitians should demand reparations.. but that is unlikely.. Haitians learn to forget, but people around should know all the pictures and videos you see in the media is not about ignorant black people who doesn't know how to take of themselves, it is the result of world powers trying to keep them in that bad state so they will remain striving. Haiti has a lot of potential.. "they" know what i'm talking about. Yes, i admit that there was some bad dictatorship.... Overall, do your research.
@arseneremy Do u know what the US did to Haiti?
Another fascinating and well-presented history lesson! Sal definitely is a genius :)
haha how funny tobago is now a english island part of trinidad as one nationlol
Excuse me can anybody over here tell me where is Haiti plz ..
I've to make an assignment plz ...
In the Caribbean close to Jamaica
Are you could use a map of the Caribbean to locate Haiti
what no ways til 1947!!!!!
wow ...
thanks for postin.....
Loved the two videos I feel they were a good introduction to the subject, of which I know very little. I am also interested in the other half of the island though. I have heard that the Dominican Rep came out of Haiti in order to become recoqnised but I am unsure if that is true and am sure it is a very short version of events.
How about doing a video on Roman and Greek history.
HAITI was the first Nation to Recognize Greek Independent, just don't forget to add that part.
till 1947?! wooow, so saaad, trying to buy their freedom...
You said "There are very few people in history who you could call 'really evil'"....are you serious?
He's delusional
Hitler , Staline, Mao, Cortez, and so many other
@@victorvalandybernard7944 He means that their motivations may not have been to commit an evil act but may have been justified by their own thought process as a product of their time . Cortez for example may seem evil but it is very unlikely that the Aztecs would have a different fate had it been another spaniard or European. Humans are humans and the group with more advanced weapons, desire for Gold, and strong belief that their God was THE God would yield the same outcome regardless of the players.
They are blind. And they have the gall to be angry and upset that desalines had an eye for an eye concept.
as a haitian american, this makes me appreciate America so much more
How could u appreciate America after it betrayed your country. Oh - I guess u are being sarcastic.
THanks ALot!! (:
Very beautiful Sal,
It was like movie.!
Oh wow... I didn't think you made a video on this topic Khan. but you should consider reading up on the more modern revision of the history of Haiti. They reflect somewhat a more accurate version of event and less insultive of my Ancestors. Your details of events, although meant well, reflect the french and english version of event to not only save face. But to emply that Black slaves or black people do not possesed the intelligence that of white enough to beat his army.
@Khanacademy
Hi Sal,
I was just wondering... How many people exactly died in the Hatian Revolution
All Europeans
holy cow you do history too!?
How would you cite this?
awesome, i really enjoyed this
The U.S, under the presidency of John Adams from 1796-1800, recognized and supported the Saint Domingue's rebellion and Toussaint Louverture. Washington helped the island in their cause by sending USS Constitution, General Greene and other battle schooners. But after Adams's completion of term in office and election of 1800, things changed when Thomas Jefferson became president. He supported the French envoy in reclaiming back the island and reinstituting slavery there. The U.S ultimately betrayed Haïti.
ahaha you're awesome.
Haiti is like Moses who free the Israelites from Egypt. After he free the Israelites what did Moses get in return HUMILIATION.
Coronavirus is the same
Thank You for Your video. But two questions. 1. France demanded the money for recognition the same time when emperors of Haiti built the greatest fortress in the Western Hemisphere and one of the most beautiful palaces in the World? 2. You mentioned about Rouchembo but why didn't You mentioned the Haitian answer when they cut all European descent people. Totally.
What choice did the Haitians have.
What was cruel to the victims was kind to the hungry insects.
DID ANYONE GET REAL COMFORTABLE UNTILE THE PART WHere Sal started to talk about Desalines history, is it just me or did it get Korny
@kuktahamham yea i know the us took it over in 1915 it wasn't fare cause the u.s army was better trained then the haitian if haitian was better trained then u.s.a wouldnt took over lol
It's an urban legend.
wow that is F*cked!
I love white ppl man, smh "Toussaint was great because he didn't take revenge on the white people" what if he did, after all the things he went through it would be justified
@kuktahamham sorry i mean the u.s.a army was way more better trained and really great marks men in that time
wow history is full of evil
lol wut?
@phildrice wow fam . fa real.. what your a militant you lost your grandpa? you think we are the shit?
????? lolll
