Share, re-post, circulate- each one teach one An HLLN/FreeHaitiMovement Bwa Kayiman, 2014 posting *** Vodun (properly understood) is the Light and Beauty of Haiti . This is one photo rendition of the historical Ezili Dantò of 1791=Cecile Fatiman - read the notes next to the photo. (For more, go to Bio of Ezili Dantò, 1791 on our website - bit.ly/11N7y8) The strategy for decolonization and African liberation, remains the same today as it was at the Bwa Kayiman Vodun War Council in 1791 which started the Haiti Revolution. Heres the practical legacy left to us by the Haiti warriors: 1. The White mans god asks him to commit crimes. But the God within us wants to do good.We all should throw way the image of the white mans god, who is so pitiless. Listen to the voice for liberty that sings in all our hearts..- Dje Blan yo mande krim. Bon Dje ki nan nou an vle byen fè...Nou tout fèt pou nou jete pòtre dje Blan yo ki swaf dlo lan zye. Koute vwa la libète k ap chante lan kè nou. -- Boukmans Prayer at Bwa Kayiman war council on August 14, 1791 which launched the Haitian Revolution (Boukmans Prayer bit.ly/1oFDKGu) 2.The Bwa Kayiman war cry: E, e, Mbomba, e, e! Kanga Bafyòti. Kanga Mundele. Kanga Ndòki. Kanga yo! (bit.ly/fBCE8BBwa ) Ezilis English translation: The Supreme Creator (E, e, Mbomba, e, e!), Master of Breath/Gran mèt la/the all seeing good eye(Bondye), shall foil the black collaborators/traitors (Kanga Bafyòti). Kill/tie up/stop the tyrannical white settlers/colonists, strangers (Kanga Mundele). Bind all their evil forces/sorcerers (Kanga Ndòki). Stop them! 3. When freedom is everything, then well win. (The 3rd step to destroy white supremacy=what Desalin told General Henry Christophe to do to his own palatial home when Lerclercs armada landed at Cap Haitian to re-enslave the Africans who had freed themselves. Burn your house first, take to the mountains. (Metaphor-The cities disappear, the nation appears: Burn the ports, retreat inland.) Heres what General Jean Jacques Dessalines (Janjak Desalin), Haitis founding father said he had to do to win Haitis freedom. …“Recall everything I have sacrificed to fly to your defense – relatives, children, wealth, so that now the only riches I possess is your freedom. Recall that my name horrifies all those who are enslavers, and that tyrants and despots everywhere only bring themselves to utter it when they curse the day I was born. Remember, if you should ever discard or forget the law that the God who watches over your well being has dictated to me for your happiness, you will deserve the fate that inures to ungrateful peoples. ” Jean Jacques Dessalines, Haitian Act of Independence, January 1, 1804
