• A few French families made huge profits from sugar, while most Haitians, nearly 500,000 were African slaves
• Most slaves worked on plantations and they outnumbered their masters dramatically. White masters thus used brutal methods to terrorize slaves and keep them powerless.
• Known as Saint Dominique , Haiti was a French colony and the world's leading sugar producer. It had over 800 sugar plantations and made more profit than all 13 American colonies combined.

When the French Revolution began, white settlers on the island of Haiti called for independence.
In 1791, about 100,000 slaves rose in revolt. They burned the sugar cane in the fields and killed hundreds of slave owners. The
uprising touched off 13 years of civil war in which both sides suffered massacres.

Toussaint L’Ouverture
Wanted to end slavery and gain Independence for Haiti!
He was an educated former slave!
* Rallied slaves to revolt in 1791 – Led armies against French, Spanish
and British.
By 1801, he took control of the territory, freed the slaves and created a
constitution.
Led first successful slave revolt in New World – Total independence for Haiti in 1804

Yes, of course we agree.. Why don’t you come to Paris to discuss this further.
• L'Ouverture urged Haitians to fight to the death against the invaders. • However, in May, Toussaint agreed to halt the revolution if the
French would end slavery.
• When Napoleon Bonaparte took power in France, he decided to reclaim the rich sugar plantations of Saint Dominique. In January 1802, 16,000 French troops landed in Saint
Dominique to get rid of Toussaint.
I want St. Dominique back!
We will stop fighting if you agree to end slavery forever on St. Dominique!

• Despite the agreement, the French soon accused him of planning another uprising.
• The French sent Toussaint to an icy prison in the French Alps. Ten months later, in 1803, the Haitian leader died.
“In overthrowing me, you have done no more than cut down the trunk of the tree of the black liberty in St.Domingue- it will spring back from the roots, for they are numerous and deep.”
- Toussaint L’Ouverture

After Toussaint’s death, Haiti was restored to French domination and slavery was re-implemented. However, The taste of freedom that Toussaint had enabled the
Haitians to feel was not in vain. They continued to fight the French in a brutal revolution.
