  1. Bell Ringer • Why would a fist be regularly used to symbolize a revolution? • What does it mean to be COLONIZED? • How do you think a colonizing country would treat the people they colonized? Why?

  2. Colonial Society • Colonized by France • VERY PROFITABLE • 4 Groups in Society • Grand Blancs • Free People of Color • Petit Blancs • Slaves • Very poor working conditions • Needed 40,000 new slaves every year!

  3. Problems and Rumors • People of Haiti heard of the Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen • “All men are born and remain free…” • French Gov. explain those rules do not apply to French colonies. • Already existing racial tensions mixed with incorrect rumors of freedom launched a slave rebellion.

  4. The Revolution: Guerrilla Warfare • Guerrilla Warfare: the use of non-traditional war tactics. Typically “irregular” soldiers, normally motivated by a personal mission or ideology. Very dangerous, very little rules… • Willing to destroy your own country and land for your freedom • Haitian slaves were SO frustrated by the rumors and their social conditions, they fought against the whites • BURNED plantations, and mass murders

  5. Toussaint LouOverture Full African descent but born in Haiti. 40 year old, male, former slave (RARE) Gifted military and political leader Led an army of disciplined former slaves in the slave revolt. Ultimately successful in winning the revolution against France, negotiated with Britain and Spain. Encouraged Haitians to continue the plantation system because sugar and coffee was so profitable.

  6. Impact • ONLY successful slave revolt in World History! • Word of successful slave rebellion terrified neighboring colonies and countries. • Most PROFITABLE colony to complete POVERTY • Guerrilla Warfare was so damaging to the environment of Haiti, that post-war Haiti STILL struggles with poverty

  16. Bell Ringer • Please sit in your READING GROUPS. • Have your homework SECONDARY SOURCE READING HAITIAN REVOLUTION out on your desk. You will need a RED PEN and a HIGHLIGHTER today. • Answer the following questions in your notebook: I will come around in 2 minutes • Who colonized Haiti? • What made Haiti so profitable? • Describe 2 features of slavery in Haiti.

  17. Bell Ringer • Answer the following question in your notebook: • How are social hierarchies related to economic inequalities? • Hint: Use Estates General and the social hierarchies in Haiti in your answer. • What do you think your strengths and weaknesses were on your OPVL essay? • Please have the following items out on your desk • Mini DBQ- OPVL Bible • Guerilla Warfare homework • Blank sheet of loose leaf paper with a full heading at the top right.

  18. Thesis common mistakes • State the theme, address the prompt, and the two categories of the SPRITE chart you are addressing. • Good example: “The French Revolution was caused by the social and political conditions of the country.” • Theme: • Prompt: • SPRITE: • “The french revolution was caused by social and economic causes.” • Capitalization • Redundancy

  19. TOPIC common mistakes • TOPIC sentence: what will be the topic of your paragraph? Be more specific than your SPRITE category. • Good example: “The social causes for the French Revolution were centered around inequality.” • What’s the theme? • What’s the SPRITE category? • What specific issue will this entire paragraph be about? • What’s Wrong with this Example: “The French Revolution was caused by the social situations.” • What’s the theme? • What’s the SPRITE category? • What specific issue will this entire paragraph be about?

  20. OPVL mistakes ORIGIN • Specifically mention which document you are using to prove your topic. • Examples of sentences earning points for Origin: • “Document 1 is a primary source.” • “The Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen was written by the National Assembly.” • “Document 1 was written in 1789.” • “The National Assembly wrote the Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen in order to write equality into the government of France despite your social rank.” (O/P)

  21. OPVL Mistake • PURPOSE: What was the PURPOSE of creating this document? • Good Examples: • “Document 1 was passed in an effort to get rid of the Estates General in France.” • “This Declaration’s purpose was to create equality in France.” • “The members of the National Assembly wanted to get rid of the three different estates.” • “The National Assembly wrote the Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen in order to write equality into the government of France despite your social rank.” (O/P)

  22. Value • DO NOT SUMMARIZE the document!! Tell me HOW the document matters or HOW this has impacted the people! Your value could/should take more than one sentence. • Good Examples: • “The Declaration reflects the frustration of the commoners just before the French Revolution. The call for sovereignty and equality before the law shows the injustices the third estate was experiencing previously. Since passing the Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen, all the people of France were no longer distributed among three different estates, but now had equal opportunity.” • What’s wrong with this example: • “The peasant was on the bottom, which is how they viewed the poor, a nun was on her back and an aristocratic lady.”

  23. Limitation Identify the bias AND WHY THAT BIAS IS A PROBLEM. Good Examples: “Document one was bias towards the commoners and was biased against the clergy and nobility because it only focuses on the commoners being over taxed and mistreated while the clergy and nobility were wealthy with equal rights.” What’s wrong with this example: “This document was bias to the commoners.”
