iciHaiti - Society : Unique and fascinating history of Haiti in Quebec 10/05/2017 09:52:55 "In the midst of a continuous stream of studies trying to understand the influence of the Western powers on the internal development of Haiti, I wanted to do the opposite: examine how Haiti, Haitian migrants have influenced and marked the development of a Western society," explains the author. What is the relationship between Haitian migration and politics in Quebec? How are articulate the global issues around migration and Quebec society? To what extent the migrants guided debates about the nation, language, class, sexuality? This book explores these aspects from the 1930s to the 1980s, through the cross-stories of Quebec and Haiti. The result: a fierce struggle for change, a fight against racism and exclusion, the author tells a fascinating story of Haiti in Quebec.
