The Fallen Empire - Haiti (1931)

[@medginestphard6491]

This man went to visit a country didn’t speak their language and just was guessing what was going on

[@Haitianwarrior]

It’s laughable

[@kendrick10601]

Christophe was a king, not an emperor. Haiti had two emperor, Jean-Jacques Dessalines and Faustin Soulouque.

[@ITSLIKEARIVER2000]

Somebody should make a documentary about white countries like this lol

[@Mytho17]

Pure lies! yet he didn't talk about the cruelty from the slave masters. Whittie has been painting a bad image on haiti; this a perfect example.

[@Boookoooiikikk]

Yes. These people got their blood full of s

[@cuber5003]

Because it's a travel film about current Haiti (at the time of filming). It has nothing to do with the subject besides the passing mention he gave to it.

[@JC_inc]

Americans/Hollywood loves making derogatory movies about other countries, even though their own backyard is the dirtiest.

[@Boookoooiikikk]

Yes

[@cuber5003]

How is this derogatory?

[@plymakkayestudio1827]

This documentary is a disgrace

[@gonaive56]

True but look at the time this thing was done, 1931.

[@hakuqtsukii]

portauprince1 exactly. Racial bias.

[@gonaive56]

The movie reel is priceless. A better narrative could be put to it. Anyway, I enjoy watching these old reels.

[@sethdowner5677]

How?.Im jamaican by the way

[@np6067]

Footage nice narrative not accurate typical coloninizer view. Ayiti you'll be back!

[@PlantbasedHomestead]

Propaganda video but the lies are almost laughable. Please note that this very biased point of view with a racist narrator.

[@hakuqtsukii]

This documentary is such a disgrace.

[@Immigrationking7609]

What a liar!

[@teekolinski491]

Old BBC documentaries always sound like this. The condescending narration is sending me. 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@creedlang419]

Boy, don't they have an imagination....

[@emaxphelps7078]

Look Who's talking about cruelty and slavery? Nothing but lies and lies.

[@cuber5003]

Decent reel overall, have absolutely no idea what half the comment section is crying about. Something about this country sets people off I swear.

[@jauharilee7496]

Decent? It's condescending. You don't hear it?

[@saulquarian2643]

What a smug and racist narrator, indicative of that entire generation

All those old black emperors on haiti trying be white lol.

[@hakuqtsukii]

Stanley Dougé Lol shut the hell up. We Haitian people are proud black people. We still have European influence culturally. Nothing wrong with that.
