 And you know Christy Something happened a long time ago in Haiti and the people made I want to talk about it. They were under the heel of the French You know Napoleon the third or whatever and They got together and sore a pack to the devil. They said we will serve you if you'll get us free from the French true story and So the devil said, okay, it's a deal and they kick the French out, you know the Haitians revolted and got themselves free But ever since they have been cursed by by one thing after the other desperately poor and absolutely None of what Pat Robertson said in this clip is true Yes, the slaves of Haiti did free themselves from the French, but they absolutely did not make a pact with the devil But before we go any further, you know what to do Please hit that subscribe button and give us a like as always a very very special Thank you to all of our patrons and our producers on this channel Without you guys we would not be able to do what we do if you would like to join our patreon community There is a link down in the description box below Welcome to esoteric Atlanta. My name is Bryce and today on our deep dive into voodoo We are going to be talking about the Haitian Revolution we on Mondays we do a Monday mystery and as most of you know currently we are looking through Missing people from national parks. However, this episode specifically on the Haitian Revolution on our deep dive into the practice of voodoo Has been a very long time coming In fact, I have been sitting on this research for many many many weeks now And if you joined us on Aquarius Rising Africa last Monday You saw us briefly speak about this event in our human history Now the reason why I've been sitting on this information and have not made a video yet going over this research is Because I've been dealing with some pretty scary stuff off camera as you know Many of you know there is another person another youtuber out there that has called me a witch and Then went on to say he wanted to decapitate witches I take threats to my life very very seriously and therefore decided to hold off on Releasing any more voodoo deep dives and until I felt safer Well at this point I feel like I'm pretty divinely protective and I do feel like this person who has been making these threats Will bring no harm to me or anybody else that was also called a witch on his channel Now as many of you know especially those of you who are from the deep south like I am You know again that voodoo who do all these fates that originated in Africa Have made their way over Specifically to the southeastern part of the deep south they arrived here by way of the slave trade Now like most religions voodoo has many different branches just like in Christianity There's many different denominations and the most popular form of voodoo in New Orleans is Haitian voodoo This is because in the late 1700s there was the Haitian Revolution during this time many of the slaves were actually taken out of Haiti and brought into New Orleans the port of New Orleans in order to keep them enslaved by the French at this point the port of New Orleans was Not a part of the United States that would not come until the early 1800s with the Louisiana purchase now at the beginning of this video I played a clip from Pat Robertson from the 700 club now I'm not a fan of Pat Robertson. In fact, I have a lot of suspicions about who he truly serves But I'm gonna tell you right now that there was no pact made with the devil From the people the slaves of Haiti and what's so ironic is that right before the Haitian Revolution happened another Revolution happened the American Revolution We acknowledge that the start of the American Revolution was 1776 And if you've watched a lot of my earlier videos, you know that America the United States really wasn't truly established and on solid ground as its own Nation until 1791 Well in 1791 the Haitians also revolted for someone like Pat Robertson the patriots of the American Colonists were heroes who fought off the British who wanted to keep taxing them and bossing them around on their own nation They were a group of people of rebels of badasses who decided that they didn't need a monarchy to tell them what to do instead They were gonna self-govern and self-elect in my opinion 1776 was truly the marker of what we now call the great awakening but for someone like Pat Robertson who would Glorify the patriots of the colonies he will then turn around and demonize The people of Haiti the people of Haiti were doing the exact same thing that the colonists were doing They were trying to get a tyrannical government out of their land And so not only is the information of them selling their soul or making a pact to the devil incorrect It's also pretty racist because if you're a true person of God if you're a true person who serves the light You know that all people all human beings are equal in the eyes of God Yes, it's true that voodoo did play a part in this revolution But we have been lied to so much about certain things that it's of the utmost importance That we start to re-examine what exactly happened and what the practice of voodoo Really is the island of Hispaniola is an island in the Caribbean sea again If you've been following along on this channel, we've actually spoken about Hispaniola quite a few times This was the island that Christopher Columbus discovered in 1492 now again if you join us on Aquarius Rising Africa You probably heard me say that if you actually believe Christopher Columbus found this land this continent these islands in 1492 as the first white person Then you've got a lot more waking up to do I believe personally with a lot of evidence and proof that this continent had been known about for a while By the powers that be in Europe and we know for sure that there were tribal nations of Africa that Absolutely knew about the Americas Why because prior to Christopher Columbus's journey to the New World? He had been in Africa where he had heard stories about a great continent that lay across the sea so in 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue and he landed on the island that he named Hispaniola or the Spanish Island on this island was the first three official European settlements the first was founded in 1492 again, this was La Navidad in 1493 La Isabella was founded and in 1498 Santo Domingo was founded and of course This is currently the capital of the Dominican Republic now in 1492 when Christopher Columbus first landed in Hispaniola He was looking for gold Gold was not necessarily something he found on the island though instead what he found would end up being an even better resource for these European empires and this was sugar cane not only would this sugar cane make the empires of Europe very wealthy But it also would require a lot of manual labor to process the sugar cane Thus we have the introduction of the slave trade through Hispaniola Now again, if you have been here for a while the last time we spoke about Hispaniola We were talking about Ponce de Leon and the infamous fountain of youth because apparently the inhabitants of Hispaniola the people that were already there on the island told Ponce de Leon about this Mythical fountain that was just a little bit north of them that would give you eternal life if you missed that episode I will place that down in the description box below so in 1503 Spain started importing slaves from Africa to again work the land because of the immense wealth that the sugar cane provided the Empire of Spain both France and England wanted in on the piece of pie this little island would become the centerpiece of economic profit for these three empires that were constantly at each other's necks for This new land now. We know that most of the monarchs in Europe are all interrelated They all marry each other. I mean really they're just one big family, but that's especially true with Spain and France Especially when we get into the House of Bourbon We see both the House of Bourbon in both empires and we again We have talked about this on our deep dives into New Orleans Even though we see these battles going back and forth between France and Spain It really is kind of a sleight of hand a trick to Disabilize the population while this one family profits from all of the rewards in 1670 the French started bringing in even more slaves to the island of Hispaniola and in 1697 a treaty was signed that divided Hispaniola into two different halves We have on one side the Dominican Republic and on the other side We have Haiti and this is exactly as it is even to this day The Spanish governed the Dominican Republic while the French governed Haiti over on the French side of Haiti The black population Greatly outnumbered the white population We again had the same situation over in New Orleans And so we had publications such as the Code Noir, which was basically a law book For how to govern your slaves and even though no one living the life of a slave was living a happy life The slaves of Haiti had it the worst not only was it labor-intensive to work the fields But because they outnumbered the white people greatly The white people then had to be that much more brutal towards their slaves In fact the lifespan of a slave and Haiti at this time was three to seven years Now I don't think it's fair for me to actually just call it the white people because well We're gonna get into that as we get into the Haitian Revolution We're talking about the actual slave owners. We know that in life Nothing is really black and white. In fact most things in life fall into shades of gray And as we'll get into with what actually happened with the Haitian Revolution Not all the white people the French people Polish German people that happened to be on the island were necessarily a part of this massive of These black Africans as many people know over in Europe especially within Europe aristocratic families Arranged marriages were very very common. This wasn't just done within royalty It was literally done everywhere And so if we think about the situation on the island, especially with a lot of these white French families You're looking at a lot of wives Children people that were also kind of placed in this situation Almost like the slaves themselves. Yes, they did not live the same lives as the slaves did but a lot of them were forced into These houses with these men who were not the nicest of people In fact a lot of the slaves that were brought in from Africa to Haiti called the slave masters I kid you not now ten years ago I probably wouldn't have taken this very seriously But given what we know now about the powers that be I take this very seriously that they refer to the masters and the traders as This is something very important to remember as we get deeper into what voodoo actually is Now just like in New Orleans when the slaves were brought into Haiti They were kind of forced to take on this Catholic faith. They were baptized into this faith However, that did not strip them of their local culture and the faith that they were taught Growing up and this is where we get voodoo from now if you've been watching our prior episodes on deep dives into voodoo You know that voodoo is not necessarily the right term for this faith The right term is voodun, which means pure light from all the resources that I've used In studying this faith including speaking with people that I know who practice this faith voodoo is like a Spiritual science It's marrying the idea of complete trust in God with working with the elements of nature This is something that's common in a lot of indigenous religions and faiths even in the European indigenous Religions they worked with herbs and they learned how to move with the tides of nature and as many of you know The word sorcery in the Bible Well, that original word was Pharmakia if that gets you any indication of how everything's been twisted and inverted as we're building up to the Haitian Revolution we're going to talk about a couple of characters Within this timeline the first person we're going to talk about was a man named Macindal now for my understanding Macindal was born a slave but ended up freeing himself as we've spoken about in prior episodes There was a way under the French government for the slaves to eventually free themselves That was one of the things that was very different from the English slave trade Now if you're new to our deep dive into New Orleans into all these things Then I will put the New Orleans playlist down in the description box below So you can go back and review some of that stuff if that's not familiar to you because a lot of the characters that we're Going to look at going forward in this episode as well as in other episodes were slaves that had freed themselves Through one of the laws in the Code Noir now if you put yourself in Mac Macindal's shoes Here he is. He's freed himself, but he's watching his fellow people basically Now I'm not going to get into the specifics of what they did to the slaves in Haiti because It's a little iffy on YouTube But I will again link the Aquarius Rising Africa episode in the description box below where you can hear us speak about some Of that there so because of Macindal's understanding of herbs and how to work with plant medicine He taught some of these slaves how to create concoctions That would cause their masters to shall we say leave the earth playing in fact It is believed that Macindal himself was responsible for the passing of 6,000 Frenchmen now I don't know if that number is accurate. This was in the 1700s. So in 1757 Macindal gave a prophecy of the revolution to come because of these prophecies and because of the things that he was teaching his people a group of slaves that had kind of Gone into some Stockholm syndrome where they were like protecting their masters Which is very common that does happen a lot ended up turning Macindal in and Macindal ended up being Executed for all his crimes against the French slave owners before his execution Macindal said that he was going to come back as a mosquito. Well, they laughed at that How was he going to come back as a mosquito and like hurt people? I? mean hello Malaria Actually ended up happening a little bit later. There was this huge outbreak of malaria So was that Macindal who knows but the one thing we really get from the story of Macindal is that the Slaves that had been brought to Haiti We're definitely starting to get fed up with the circumstances that they found themselves in And that brings us to the next person that we're gonna speak about and this is my favorite of all the characters I've studied in this whole story, and this is the man named duty bookman now duty bookman was a voodoo priest That was originally in Jamaica duty bookman had caused the British Empire that governed Jamaica a lot of problems It seems that he and his whole family Really believed in this idea of like freedom and we're really you know starting these Resistance against the slave owners over in Jamaica and so the British you know they thought that hey You know what we know what will break duty bookman will sell them to the French Because as I said Haiti and the French already had a reputation for being some of the most brutal slave masters in this whole industry So at 13 years old duty bookman was sent to Haiti now He got the last name of bookman because when he got there he actually had a copy of the Quran tied around his belt When he refused to give up the Quran to his new owners They ripped the book from him and burned it in front of him But the young 13 year old duty bookman would not be broken by the French In fact, he was instrumental in actually lighting the fire that would start the Haitian revolution He did this with a woman named Cecilia Fatima we've spoken about the roles of women in voodoo in previous episodes But I want to make this very very clear what I have learned from the voodoo faith is that the voodoo faith does recognize a Divine masculine and a divine feminine just like we're supposed to have in the Christian faith We're supposed to have a yashua as we know of as Jesus his real name was yashua and the Magdalene They're supposed to be an equal balance between the feminine and the masculine and we see this again within the voodoo religion Cecilia was what we call a mamba Haitian mambos are leaders in the voodoo temples and they also provide healing work, which is what Cecilia was known for She was the daughter of an enslaved African woman and of a white Frenchman now allegedly her father this white Frenchman was of Croatian royalty But when Cecilia was born in 1771 she was immediately sold into slavery now leading up to this revolution and this Very powerful ceremony with duty Bookman and Cecilia that started the Haitian Revolution not only were the slaves Mistreated heavily by their masters, but they also had a lot of mind scrambling done to them You see within the faith of voodoo. There was this idea of the transmigration of the soul This concept is very common. We talk about this concept in yoga a lot This is also a concept that's in the Christian faith as well Meaning that the soul is eternal the soul never dies the soul just moves on but within the voodoo faith Because of this really heavy idea of the transmigration of the soul there wasn't a lot of fear around Mortality and so for a lot of these slaves that were brought into Haiti Sometimes they would just in their own lives Instead of be subject to the hands of these slave masters because they knew they knew that they would just go on to another existence because of this The slave masters started telling them that to commit Was a sin You see my friends. This is where this comes from This idea that taking one's own life is a sin. It doesn't come from the Bible It doesn't come from anywhere But a psychopath who wants to try to control people so on August 14th of 1791 duty Bookman and Cecilia held a voodoo ceremony in a local bayou This is where Pat Robertson will tell you they made a pact with the devil, but that is not so now the thing about voodoo Is that again? They learn to work with nature. They learn to respect nature to understand animals within the animal kingdom And so practicing their faith in the bayou in the swamps where there's Alligators was not that big of a deal to the voodoo people They respected the alligators and the alligators respected them They also knew that this area was safe for them because the white people wouldn't come near the swamps now on this night of August 14th of 1791 duty Bookman and Cecilia spoke about all these prophecies The Macindal prophecy their own prophecies of a revolution to come of freedom to come freedom for them They encouraged people to get brave. They knew that the white slave owner only understood force And so therefore they would have to reciprocate with force back to these slave owners for four years Cecilia herself had been encouraging people to break free of this life of misery They talked about using everything at their disposal weaponizing everything this idea of guerrilla warfare They also told everybody in the swamp that they would wait seven days before they started the revolution There were many reasons for this one. They had to get prepared But another reason they needed seven days another part of their Preparation was to make sure that they could get the white people that were good Into a safe place when I learned about this part of the Haitian Revolution. I got very emotional Because that shows the level of integrity that these slaves had the level of discernment That they had the fact that their lives were met with such hardship But they were able to understand that some of these white people, especially the wives of some of these masters Were just as caught as they were and They made a pact that they would do what they could to protect those that had not hurt them You see, this was not a battle of black versus white. This was not anything to do with race This was everything to do with good versus evil Because a lot of the slaves were not educated. They did not know how to count So the ones that could count went and collected seven pebbles for each person Every day they were told to throw a pebble out And by the time they had no more pebbles left That was the time to act to close out this ceremony Duty Bookman gave his famous prayer and in my opinion this prayer tells you exactly what you need to know about the voodoo faith And before I read this prayer out to you I ask you to question who was the God that the slaves were worshiping and who was the God that the slave owners Were worshiping because in my mind it seems that the slaves that practice voodoo were worshiping the God of love And the slave owners were worshiping the God of darkness the God who created the earth who created the sun that gives us light The God who holds up the ocean who makes the thunder for Our God who has ears to hear You who are hidden in the clouds Who watches us from where you are you see all that the white has made us suffer The white man's God asked him to commit crimes, but the God within us wants to do good Our God who is so good So just Orders us to avenge our wrongs It's our God who will direct our arms and bring us victory. It's our God who will assist us We should throw away the image of the white man's God who is so pitiless Listen to the voice of liberty that sings in all our hearts and in my opinion It seems that the God that assisted the slaves in the Haitian Revolution Was the exact same God that had previously assisted the colonists in the Americas in their revolution Once the revolution began the number one mission from the French military was to find duty Bookman and on November 7th of 1791 duty. Bookman was indeed captured He was executed by the French and his head was placed on a stake for all the other slaves to see the French thought that this would scare off any other people and maybe quell the revolution but The thing is is it only pissed the people off more and day by day The slaves would walk by and rub the head of duty bookman in respect I guess it's safe to say that at this point nothing could stop what was coming the next person Important person in the Haitian Revolution is a man named Toussaint Louis Vacher now my French is terrible and Any French that I'm familiar with typically is French coming from New Orleans And so it's probably not exactly like the French you would hear in France or even in Canada But more of like a southern French So I apologize if these names are not accurate in the way that I pronounced them But I'm going to go ahead and call this man just Toussaint by his first name Now Toussaint is considered to be the father of Haiti He was a Haitian general and the most prominent leader of the Haitian Revolution He had been born a slave between 1739 and 1746 But was about 50 years old when the Revolution began now This is pretty incredible to me because 50 years old nowadays is actually really young. I mean babies because I'm 38 that I find 50 to be really young but But it is I mean I know a lot of people who are 50 who look more fit and healthy than they probably did at 28 Different time right but 50 for this time was not young And so the fact that he was able to be such a prominent general in this revolution is really impressive Now it is said that Toussaint had been born a slave and he was born a pretty submissive slave And so the slave owners of the French military actually really liked Toussaint as as a slave he did become a free man around the age of 30 and He went forward within a military career and became very Europeanized. He actually adapted the Christian faith He he dressed very European he everything he understood he had learned from the French And this is going to come in handy because in order to defeat the French He needed to understand the French. He understood European warfare and in fact Toussaint became one of the first Africans to actually become a general for the French military and I'm sure the role Toussaint played in the Haitian revolution it made Napoleon who was the emperor of France at that time very very nervous now I do need to point out that during this time as well Napoleon was also going into Egypt and trying to clean Egypt out of all of its information This is really interesting and I find this so obvious now. It's like once you see it. You can't unsee it that these People this bunch of group the dark cult as Janine calls them that they were doing everything They could to get rid of any information that would allow humans to understand who we truly are Where we truly come from and what the real God is like hence why they started smear campaigns and propaganda against voodoo Which we're gonna get into a little bit more at the end of this episode, but in 1802 I Think Napoleon kind of had his oh shit moment when he realized that Toussaint was now kind of in charge of the military And like this was this really good general who knew everything about the French military and now he was probably gonna kick their ass and The French were gonna like lose this revolution and so in 1802 Napoleon sent a middleman to meet up with Toussaint In Haiti and offer him a crap ton of money to turn in the other leaders of the Haitian revolution This is what this group of people have. This is what they do all the time. They bribe you if they can't blackmail you They're gonna bribe you But it didn't work with Toussaint and guys he was gonna offer Toussaint one million francs again in 1802 I mean Toussaint would have been like one of the richest guys ever But Toussaint had integrity and he said no at that point I think Toussaint realized that he probably had Napoleon in the palm of his hands if Napoleon was that desperate to try to squash this revolution and get Toussaint on his side that he would offer him all this money He'd be probably figured like ah easy peasy this is done And so Toussaint goes ahead and writes a constitution for the land of Haiti in this constitution He bans slavery when Napoleon received the copy of the Constitution and the request from the Haitians again Exactly like what had happened in the American Revolution with the Declaration of Appendance. It's same saying same thing Here's our demand. We're breaking up with you. We want to be free sign it Let's negotiate this and let's be done with it But when Napoleon got this he decided that he was going to Not give in to Toussaint and in fact he tricked Toussaint He decided to invite Toussaint to France to negotiate gentlemen to gentlemen man to man But this again was a trick because when Toussaint got to France under the impression that Napoleon Respected him enough that they would have this man-demand talk about the demands and the freedom of Haiti They arrested Toussaint and they threw him in jail and in fact they starved him. They starved him They starved him What an awful way to go to be that hungry to pass away because You're in this jail in France. You don't have food Toussaint's last words were basically that his passing Would not stop the revolution and in fact I think his passing probably pissed the Haitian people off even more at this point Napoleon was literally out for blood Napoleon sent some of his most brutal military men to Haiti to basically Take everything in their path men women children. They trained dogs to attack all sorts of stuff They used the sulfate on the island to basically gas people. I mean, hello we've seen this done less than a hundred years ago as well in Another situation on this earth and as duty bookman and Cecilia had said in that fateful night of August 14th of 1791 We have to meet their force with force so the bloodier the French got the bloodier the Haitians got and so enters The last character we're going to speak about and this is Jean-Jacques Dessaline now the last name Dessaline means a free man of color It is believed that Jean-Jacques Dessaline had been purchased by another slave When he was a child and so a bit like Toussaint he had grown up He didn't spend that much time as a slave so he had kind of grown up with this education where he was learning things about the French Military and like Toussaint he dressed European and had a lot of the same knowledge Jean-Jacques we had learned lessons from Toussaint don't don't ever ever Give the French any more credit than they deserve when it comes to the trickery of war and when I say the French I hope you guys understand. I mean the government the military not the people the French people are awesome I love the French people. I have French in my DNA my ancestry so I think we know that by now right like we're talking about the government and We know now that the governments are all in cahoots together and us little people are the ones that are getting screwed over So please know when I say the French that's who I'm referring to it is noted that before Jean-Jacques Dessaline Basically went apeshit on the French. He said we're gonna take care of these cannibals I mean how obvious is this guys? How obvious is this? The people who had made a pact with the devil in my opinion were the slave owners not the Haitians Jean-Jacques showed no mercy and in one day 7,000 Frenchmen Surrendered to Jean-Jacques Dessaline and on November 18th of 1803 the Haitians won the Haitian Revolution This had been the biggest slave revolt since Spartacus in 71 BC. The only difference is They actually freed themselves. They officially became the first black Republic and on January 1 of 1804 Haiti declared itself an independent country in its Constitution he granted all the people black white whatever Citizenship banning slavery and working on this crazy idea of self-governing They even sent people to other countries like Ecuador and Venezuela to help them end their slavery But the only problem is even though they won the revolution at this point We were looking at a David and Goliath moment and at this point in history It wasn't time yet for David to take down Goliath all the other empires Especially the ones that were governed by this group this bunch this one percent Did not recognize Haiti as its own country This meant that Haiti could not trade with other nations and without the trade there was no money to be made Haiti itself on this island was so rich with resources But because they couldn't utilize those resources within this global world. They became extremely Poor not only that but the Catholic Church itself Decided to go after Jean-Jacques Desolines and they executed him and they scattered his body all around kind as like one big f you from This dark cult to the people who dared to want their own freedom the women of Haiti gather together and collected Jean-Jacques Desolines body in order to give him a proper respectable Burial over time the nation of Haiti was hit with Reparation taxes the French decided that these people didn't have a right To demand their freedom and so therefore they were going to force Haiti to pay them back money for them wanting to be free Like how dare these people not allow us to own them. They need to pay us money for that That's what happened to Haiti and over time the same group of people You know who I'm talking about have continued to go to Haiti to utilize their resources To utilize their people and to take everything from them Even just recently there was a scandal involving a nonprofit here in the United States in regards to some of the young people of Haiti and I think you guys know exactly what I'm talking about Before the revolution ended about 10,000 Frenchmen took their slaves into New Orleans The stories of the horrors of Haiti ran through the circles of New Orleans and The Haitian people did something that was pretty smart. They knew that there was a smear campaign against their faith They knew that the propaganda machine was going trying to convince the white people That this faith from Africa was bad when again in my opinion, it seems like everything had been inverted So the Haitian slaves in New Orleans started to act on this They started to dramatize the ceremonies in order to scare The slave owners away What better way to protect yourself than to actually have people believe that you are powerful in black magic But having someone believe you are powerful in black magic doesn't mean that you actually are powerful in black magic And as I have found in most of my research Most of voodoo is actually pretty good and worships a god of light And I'm hoping as we move forward in our time on this earth that Haiti will once again be restored that it's natural Resources will be returned to it and that Haiti like all the countries Will become free because now is the time for the David and Goliath moment All right guys, thank you so much for sitting through that Please leave me your thoughts and your opinions down in the comment section below We've got more things to look at when it comes to voodoo and New Orleans I know there's some big people like Marie Laveau that you guys are really excited about but she's coming trust me She's coming all right this afternoon.
