Haiti as Empire's Laboratory w/ Jemima Pierre

Haiti as Empire's Laboratory w/ Jemima Pierre

In this episode of Guerrilla History, we bring on the absolutely terrific Professor Jemima Pierre to discuss her vital piece Haiti as Empire's Laboratory, which came out in NACLA late last year. Here, we discuss the history of Western Imperialist intervention in Haiti primarily since the revolution, and why Haiti is often overlooked outside of analysis of the Revolution, or the current material situation divorced from any historical understanding. You may remember our episode Haiti and Western Intervention w/ Pascal Robert, which came out just over a year and a half ago. This conversation is in much the same vein, with some updating and additional analysis, so if you haven't already listened to that other conversation, please do so!

Jemima Pierre is Professor at the Social Justice Institute at the University of British Columbia and is the Haiti/Americas Coordinator with the Black Alliance for Peace. She is the author of The Predicament of Blackness: Postcolonial Ghana and the Politics of Race and numerous academic and public articles about Haiti. Try to find her on her secret twitter account, one of the best follows out there, but you have to do the searching yourself!
