Faces of the Haitian diaspora
How do we define culture and identity? Is it the sharing of collective knowledge of traditions, language, norms and customs? The concept of cultural identity has mainly been viewed through the prism of multicultural societies in the western world.
The collective view of Haiti fails to recognize the incredibly diverse realities that existed from the country’s inception. Actually, many Haitians in Haiti and around the world are made up of any mixture of Africans, Americans, Spanish, British, Canadians, French, Arabs, Germans, Indians, Chinese, Jewish, Polish and Italians.
The aim is to fundamentally canvass, what it means to be, Haitian? Please follow us on social media.
