Solidarity with the Haitian People: A film series on Haiti’s fight for self-determination

-7 p.m. February 5th: Bitter Cane (1983). Directed by Jacques Arcelin
Bitter Cane is a timeless documentary classic about the exploitation and foreign domination of the Haitian people. From peasant coffee farms in the rugged tropical mountains to steamy U.S.-owned sweatshops in the teeming capital, the film takes the viewer on a journey through Haitian history to a deeper understanding of that country’s political economy.
Speaker: Dr. Melanie Newton, Department of History, University of Toronto
