The Haitian Revolution was a successful uprising against slavery and colonial rule by self-freed slaves in Saint-Domingue, today’s territory of Haiti. It started in 1791 and ended in 1804 with the independence of the former colony. It was the only slave uprising that led to the establishment of a state that was free from slavery and ruled by non-whites and former prisoners. With the recent surge in Haitian revolutionary studies, it is now widely recognized as a defining moment in the history of racism in the Atlantic world.
Its effects on the institution of slavery were felt across America. After the end of French rule and the abolition of slavery in the former colony by the former slaves, they successfully defended the freedoms they achieved and, with the participation of the mulattos, their independence from the rule of white Europeans. It questioned long-held beliefs about the inferiority of blacks and the ability of enslaved people to attain and maintain their own freedom. The rebel’s organizational skills and tenacity under pressure became the source of stories that shocked and frightened slave owners.
