History of Haiti: Episode #3 - Civilizations of the ancestors of Haitians

Every time I meet someone from Haiti they get really excited hearing I’m from Africa. It’s like meeting a long lost brother or sister. Such nice people.

As a Haitian born, raised in America in her toddler years, I long of Africa. I feel my spirit was taken from there and traveled throughout the Caribbean and Americas. Viv Le Africa Viv Ayiti

To all the Haiti ancestors, give thanks for helping to break the chains!

I just saw a documentary from the Congo, and I felt like I was looking at my family members! From the faces to the mannerisms—it was amazing to see!

Last year, some group of Haitians came to Enugu Igbo Biafra land. To align with their Igbo heritage,we love ❤️ them.

Thanks for this EPIC clip. I am a Nigerian (Yoruba) and I have always wanted to know more about Haiti and other countries in the world where black people are found...When I think back to the lies and distorted stories being told in the History books when I was growing up in Nigeria, and is STILL being told today, I feel like weeping . Africa MUST re-write its history to reflect our history,culture,traditions and not that of those who colonised us and are STILL doing so. .❤❤.LONG LIVE AFRICA /Africans /those of African Origin❤❤. Much❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ to you ALL wherever and in which part of the Globe 🌎 you may be .....

This is why 🇭🇹 wants to join the African Union because they know who they are.

One of the most resilient people on the damn planet

All African and Caribbean countries should implement the teachings of African and black history.

Thank you very much I'm so proud to be Haitian no matter what going on in my country Love Haiti ❤❤❤❤

I am Haitian 🇭🇹, I just discovered Africans name, Oh Gosh such Beautiful names, Nbombo, Mwamba etc ❤❤ i don't know them very well I'm in love with african names. For sure i will give my children african names. Sooo beautiful names. I regret that we haitians have lost all of that. I love Africa 🌍.❤ .

Congolese here, my gran dad always told me of stories of our people that would disappears in our villages at night times...I see myself when I see any diasporas

My maternal line is 100% from Benin/ Bioko Island, the Fon people. Can't wait to learn more about my ancestry. We Haitians are interesting people

Im Haitian and our ancestry is from multiple tribes in west africa (dahomey,kongos,wolof,yoruba,igbo,bambara which are an mandinka tribe and a small amount of akan/ashanti. It evident in Haitian kreyol,vodou and in Haitian arts

Haitians look mostly Fon and Kongo. Fon is largely where Voodoo comes from. Black people from Louisiana look Fon and Congo, too. Haitians are very beautiful people and first people to overthrow their oppressors to become the first black republic. I consider them extra special.

To be honest, I didn't really know much about Haiti until I watched a video recently on YouTube when I heard about the gang violence Kenya is coming to solve. I was shocked at how the accent and behaviour is very similar to African francophone countries like Ivory Coast, Gabon etc My girlfriend was shocked to when I showed her I am hoping we can unite in Africa and provide a comfortable place for all Africans in the diaspora. Love from Cameroon ❤

Thank you so much for shedding positive light on my country. The media shame us to cover their wrongdoings.Viv repiblik ayiti 🇭🇹

I am haitian American, I completed a 23 and me DNA test I am Africa United, mostly Nigerian. I want to visit the motherland in the future ❤️
