that is to say, haiti. now, what is interesting about many of these revolts as they are not unlike other revolts taking place within the hemisphere in which there is a very inspiration by the haitian revolutionaries for direct instigation by the haitian revolutionaries. in fact, the argument they make in this book is that they haitian revolution ignited a general crisis of the entire slave system that can only be resolved with the systems collapse. if you are trying to understand why slavery collapsed in north america, you should not only look within the four corners of north america, but you should look to haiti. as i've said in the previous book, you should also look to the inspiration is not the instigation of british abolitionists in london. what is interesting as well is that the u.s. slaveholding republic did not accept benignly this haitian revolution. you may recall that in the 18 finance you had a massive movement of the so-called free negro population, especially the free negro baltimore in haiti.

after doing research in haiti, the archive in haiti like many buildings in haiti it was devastated bythe earthquake, at the same time they have been able to achieve -- foreign aid and was rebuilding this archive. it's a tremendous archive, one of the flaws, i think, much of the right on haiti focuses on the revolution but much of the research is done in france understandably because it's the colonial power and the documents are easier to gain access and some people find it more pleasant to be in paris than port of prince. but i think that we are to do justice to haiti we are going to have to rebuild and reinstruct this haitian what are chive and one of the points that i'm going to make in the kinds of research that i've been doing in recent years going to various countries, like if you go to singapur, as part of foreign aid, various governments like the united states government will micro kill -- micro film documents and turn them over to singapur. go around the world and sweep up documents relative the haitian revolution. for example, in my book i talk about the role of russia in the

maloney's question about haiti and mr. jacques. no one disputes that he had a legitimate court order for deportation and the haitian government three times rejected accept him back to the country. are you aware the u.s. has been the largest federal aid donor to haiti since 1973 speak with no, sir, i don't know about. >> so we are the largest federal aid donor in history to haiti. are you frustrated that countries such as haiti don't take back their citizens after they commit crimes in the united states and have a valid order for deportation? >> absolutely. if we have that order we want to remove that person. >> would you support a law or a memo that says countries like haiti should no longer get foreign aid or get reduction if they do not accept a system backup committed committed crimes in the united states? >> i would support look at that and working with the department of state to see if that is a reasonable and logical thing to do. >> has haiti apologized to i.c.e. over the family at all? >> i don't know about the family. i don

former slaves back into slavery, napoleon failed to reconquer haiti. and that frenchman died on that mission. he was the only one that never made it back to france. this is the tricky part about writing about people. some of them you spend years researching and you get charmed by them. he was a major disappointment to me, his life, on this mission to put people back into slavery. but all of them went back to france. some of them especially had the most distinguished careers and france. it was almost a kind of funny thing, because these people in a sense along to french history. -- belonged to french history. they have this moment where they appear in american history, which is my field, and it helps me think about american history and its connections between friends, the caribbean -- france, the caribbean and with other parts of the world. realizing that the solidity of these boundaries that we think of as much more fixed, to think about american history in this period is part of the larger french world. is an interesting exploration for me. host: fran

officials submitted a request to haiti to deport him. haitian officials gave their verbal confirmation that he was approved to go back to haiti. and are you aware that the haitian officials approved his removal to haiti on october 1st, 2012? >> yes. and you have cited -- i don't know if you're done. >> yeah, yeah. then they changed their mind. they told you, u.s. officials, he was denied removal. they pointed out that he was approved three days earlier, and do you know why the haitian officials decided on a whim that he should not be allowed or would not be allowed eed to co back to his country of origin? >> we have not been given a response. it's frustrating. we wanted to send this person back. there are others in this same position. >> i want to go on. and this is really critical. because if we had succeeded in removing him and deporting him, we would have saved an american life. we would have saved an american family. and it was the right thing to do. so one week later, unbelievably, on october 10th, haitian officials acknowledged to

they promised to provide more capital to small business people in haiti through microcredit loans. something that means a lot to hillary and me personally, because for over 40 years since we took a honeymoon trip there, we have cared about them and believe in the. they promised educational exchange with the national university of rwanda. we can learn a lot from them because they lost 10% of their people in 90 days to a genocide in 1994 and they came back because they refused to be paralyzed by the past. they joined hands across the line that led to all that bloodshed to create a common future. that's at the heart of your restorative justice program here. instead of figuring out who to punish, figure out how to repair the harm. instead of focusing on getting even for the past, focus on how we can share the future. if it is at the heart of your efforts here to improve the juvenile justice system. you, without knowing it, have often embodied the future of positive interdependence that we hope to build. you cannot have shared prosperity in an inclusive community unless we believe our c

after the war he served as a minister to haiti. in the late 1880's, he is elected to a virginia seat and comes into the house, but he is another african-american who faces a contested election. and by the time he only gets a seven or eight months term. this is really the story of a lot of these men who had roadblocks thrown up -- everything from poll taxes that affected constituents to violence at the polls. now the union army presence, the federal presence had in rolled back. the very last individual who serves is george henry white of north carolina. represented a coastal district in north carolina that had elected african-americans before. he is the last african-american to serve for really three decades. he forcefully pushed for two things while he was a member. one was anti-lynching legislation, which no one had really championed before and he pushes for that. it goes nowhere. it languishes in the judiciary committee and never really is debated, but he is out there talking on the floor. the other thing he wanted was because th
