January 1, 1804: The Haitian Revolution succeeds. Haiti declares independence, making it the world's first Black republic + first nation to abolish slavery.
This dealt a magnificent blow to the French colonial empire and created hemispheric shifts in the abolition of slavery.
“Marie Sainte Dédée Bazile, known as Défilée and Défilée-La-Folle, is a figure of the Haitian Revolution. She is remembered for retrieving and burying the mutilated body of Emperor Dessalines after his assassination at Pont Larnage.”

“Catherine Flon was a Haitian seamstress, patriot and national heorine. She is regarded as one of the symbols of the Haitian Revolution and independence. She is celebrated for sewing the first Haitian flag in 1803.”

Suzanne Bélair (1781 - 1805) called Sanité Bélair, was a Haitian Freedom fighter and revolutionary, lieutenant in the army of Toussaint Louverture. Women have always been on the battlefield with our men. Respect our revolutionary sistars!
