    This makes me so happy inside. Puerto Rican born raised, in Miami. My main group of friends in high school were Haitian. Still keep in touch with a lot. But life happens. I'm back in Puerto Rico, but this was my life. I once went to a party in little Haiti and actually had some Haitian friends tell me not to go. But I went with my group of Haitian friends that were going and had a blast. It was family. It was unity. I would never move back to Miami. I'm home. But Haitian food, the culture the people I miss so much. Very blessed to have my Haitian family visit me in Puerto Rico now. Kinda looks the same as Haiti. So makes me happy to have them here. Also, Tons of hatians live in Puerto Rico. We took in over 200 Haitian and Dominican refugees this year alone.

    This is beautiful, I grew up in Miami and I am also Haitian. Personally, I never thought Miami or being Haitian was a big deal growing up but as I have aged and learned more about my culture, I have learned to appreciate my city and where my ancestors come from. Thanks for showcasing it and promoting the culture.

    Haiti will rise again one day💪🏾🇭🇹. It’s a shame that Haiti is not talked about in U.S. history. After Haiti gained its independence, Haitians helped the U.S. fight for its freedom and won, and not only did they help the U.S. gain their independence they also helped several other countries like Brazil, Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Guyana, Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica, and Bolivia. Haiti used to be a strong nation, but slavery was a big source of income for many, and after Haiti fought to abolish slavery the whole white world has hated Haiti ever since. And they’re making Haiti pay for it now.

    This is supposed to be about understanding, celebrating, and embracing other cultures. I don’t understand the need for hateful comments. The Constitution has granted us the right to freedom of speech. However, with any right comes responsibilities. Just because you have the right to say something, doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to say. Among the biggest blights on our society are hatefulness and exclusion. Remember, even Jesus broke bread with sinners.

    Haitian food is amazing and deserves coverage but I expected this piece to do this exhausting thing that every other piece about Haiti and Haitians in mainstream media does (this is PBS, yet unconsciously perhaps, there wasn't much departure there) and I got served with the same old redundant narrative right from the intro, which prompted me to skim. I long to see a Haiti-related piece that talks of Haiti and Haitians in relation to beauty, rich musical traditions, architecture, breath taking tropical landscapes, amazing revolutionary history, world-renowned paintings and sculpture, pretty traditional clothing, carnival elation, pride. This side of Haitian culture NEEDS to be shown as well. It's high time! When the culinary or cultural traditions of other Caribbean nations or Hispanic nations or whatever nations in their respective geographical sphere are brought up on video, they get that respect. Why can't Haitians get it too? There is beauty in Haitian culture and as in any other community, there are different types of human experiences and standards of living in Haiti as well as in its diaspora. Not everything is about misery, earthquake, busted up buildings, refugee status. This is not to say to ignore the hardships (I am NOT promoting avoidance) but to provide a BALANCED, more diversified portrayal of the Haitian experience in the same way that other cultures receive when they are being discussed. It's funny how I never see other Caribbean islands being systematically portrayed in that manner. Do people not think that these other places don't experience poverty and corruption as well? Do they not migrate? Yet I will never see a foodie episode get the poverty bombing treatment that Haitians automatically get every time the culture is being discussed. There is something very systematic and perverse about the single-minded narrative and imagery of Haitians and it contributes to stigmatization. There's no reason for a foodie episode to unfold like that.

    Where do I start. Great episode. I can't wait to watch more of these episodes, Mr. Samuelsson. I love documentaries on the African diaspora. The history, the culture, the food, the music, everything. I can watch documentaries like this all day everyday. So much to learn about our culture all around the world. I love it. This is like a cool breeze after a long hot day. We see so much negativity about our communities in the news. Nothing positive, like your documentaries. Keep them coming. Thank you.

      ​@@SamBrown-pp2fp, You are right. There are no excuses but reasons for that. By daring to be the first to gain its independence and free all the enslaved people, Haiti was defying and threatening a whole economic system. You have to know that, just as capitalism, slavery was an economic system. And anything that questions the very existence of an economic system is seen as a danger and must be eliminated or punished. Therefore, until this day, our country is being punished for putting an end to slavery. The thing is our ancestors were not just content to free Haiti only, they exported our revolution to different other regions in the world, specially in America, where there were still slavery and oppression. I am not going to tell you about the different measures and actions the economic powers at that time took against us in order to make sure that we did not develop as a nation. If you are really interested in knowing more you will have to find out for yourself.
