The Black Jacobins by C. L. R. James is a powerful account of the Haitian Revolution, the uprising ignited by the French Revolution that became a model for liberation movements across the world.
The story unfolds in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, where the brutality of plantation owners toward the enslaved was unimaginable. At the heart of the revolution is Toussaint L’Ouverture, a charismatic and largely illiterate enslaved man who rose to lead the Black people in their fight for freedom. Against overwhelming odds, he successfully resisted French, Spanish, and English forces, ultimately helping to create Haiti, the first independent post-colonial nation in the Caribbean. This is a gripping story of resistance, courage, and the struggle for freedom.
