    “I Wait for Me”: Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text by Jude Ulysse a Thesis Submitted in C

    “I wait for me”: Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text By Jude Ulysse A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2017 ABSTRACT “I wait for me” Visualizing the Absence of the Haitian Revolution in Cinematic Text Doctor of Philosophy Department of Social Justice Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2017 In this thesis I explore the memory of the Haitian Revolution in film. I expose the colonialist traditions of selective memory, the ones that determine which histories deserve the attention of professional historians, philosophers, novelists, artists and filmmakers. In addition to their capacity to comfort and entertain, films also serve to inform, shape and influence public consciousness. Central to the thesis, therefore, is an analysis of contemporary filmic representations and denials of Haiti and the Haitian Revolution. I employ a research design that examines the relationship between depictions of Haiti and the country’s colonial experience, as well as the revolution that reshaped that experience. I address two main questions related to the revolution and its connection to the age of modernity. The first concerns an examination of how Haiti has contributed to the production of modernity while the second investigates what it means to remove Haiti from this production of modernity. I aim to unsettle the hegemonic understanding of modernity as the sole creation of the West. The thrust of my argument is that the Haitian Revolution created the space where a re-articulation of the human could be possible.

    Free Obstetric Care in Haiti

    Free obstetric care in Haiti Making pregnancy safer for mothers and newborns 2 “Women who do not have the funds to seek care at a hospital must give birth at home. Without fail, the financial barrier is one of the most important reasons for the high rate of home births.” – Dr Serge Louissaint, Directeur du Département Sanitaire, Les Cayes What is the SOG project? Targeted at some of Haiti’s poorest and most vulnerable women, the Free Obstetric Care project (Soins Obstétricaux Gratuits, or SOG) offers free assisted childbirth and consultations to those who cannot afford to pay. Since its launch in 2008, the project – led by Haiti’s Ministry of Public Health and Population and supported by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the Pan American Health Organization (WHO/PAHO), and the EC/ACP/WHO Partnership1– has already produced remarkable increases both in assisted births and the number of women attending prenatal consultations. This booklet looks at the impact of the project after its launch in 2008. Following the devastation caused by the January 2010 earthquake, the project will need to rebuild – but its record, documented in these pages, makes a compelling case not just to reestablish but to extend it to the whole country. Indeed, the experience of the SOG project demonstrates how free obstetric care can help to build the future health of women and newborns across Haiti. “With the implementation of the SOG project we have seen a total change in women’s behaviour towards the use of services. Women were not coming to the hospital, as they could not afford the fees.
