Jacques Roumain-la passion d'un pays(passion for a country) clip 2/2

I discovered Langston Hughes(which lead me to Jacques Romain) when I was a sophomore in high school; and, perhaps, if I had not started reading Hughes, I would have never discovered Roumain when I did. My first encounter with Jacques Roumain was through Langston Hughes "Masters of the Dew" the translation to Jacques Roumain's "gouverneurs de la rosee". Since then I try to learn everything that I could about Jacques Roumain for he had became a great hero of mine.

This documentary is,indeed, a confirmation of everything I've always thought about Roumain. He was one of Haiti's greatest and most important authors, a political activist, a man of the people who "walk it like he talk it" and he also died to young.

Kudos to award winning film maker Arnold Antonin for such an excellent documentary. This is a never before seen look at 19th and 20th century Haitian society. Bon bagay (good stuff).
