A speech by the great orator Frederick Douglass immediately comes to mind ([[Frederick Douglass lecture on Haiti (1893)]]). Upon reading this speech, given almost a century after [[Jean-Jacques Dessalines]] unparalleled feat of liberating Haiti, one can trace a clear line from pre-revolutionary reporting to 19th century commentary as well as to current media contributions about Haitian history. The way Haiti is (mis-) represented cannot be isolated from past attempts of journalists to both diminish and distort the achievements of Haiti and its people. While it would be of no use to compare [[Jean-Bertrand Aristide]] to [[Toussaint Louverture]] and his contemporaries, both were maliciously attacked by the press and the North American public  was left with rather incomplete and often knowingly wrong reporting that resoundingly shaped the discourse and in the aftermath harmed both Haiti's interests as well as these of U.S. citizens that wished nothing more then to gain information on important world events.</del></div></td><td colspan="2"> </td></tr>

A speech by the great orator Frederick Douglass immediately comes to mind ([[Frederick Douglass lecture on Haiti (1893)]]). Upon reading this speech, given almost a century after [[Jean-Jacques Dessalines]] unparalleled feat of liberating Haiti, one can trace a clear line from pre-revolutionary reporting to 19th century commentary as well as to current media contributions about Haitian history. The way Haiti is (mis-) represented cannot be isolated from past attempts of journalists to both diminish and distort the achievements of Haiti and its people. While it would be of no use to compare [[Jean-Bertrand Aristide]] to [[Toussaint Louverture]] and his contemporaries, both were maliciously attacked by the press and the North American public  was left with rather incomplete and often knowingly wrong reporting that resoundingly shaped the discourse and in the aftermath harmed both Haiti's interests as well as these of U.S. citizens that wished nothing more then to gain information on important world events.</ins></div></td></tr>
