SUMMARY:Lecture—Entangled Alliances: The Soldiers of Saint-Domingue During the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Historian Ronald Angelo Johnson of Baylor University brings to light the fascinating story of American patriots and rebels from Saint-Domingue (later Haiti) allying against European tyranny. While modern understandings of freedom are often linked to the U.S. Declaration of Independence\, Johnson argues that the desire of Black Atlantic inhabitants for liberty and their will to resist slavery predated the fateful standoff between minutemen and redcoats at Lexington and Concord. Drawing from original multilingual sources to offer a fresh perspective\, this lecture fuses the search for freedom by Black and white founders in the United States and Saint-Domingue into a coherent story of collective resistance during the most explosive twenty-year period of the eighteenth century. This program accompanies our current exhibition\, Voices of Revolution\, on view through January 10\, 2027. \nRegistration is requested.
