Witness to History: Images of the Struggle for Democracy in Haiti (1986-2013)

Witness to History: Images of the Struggle for Democracy in Haiti (1986-2013)

From bloodshed on the Ruelle Vaillant in November 1987, as the first presidential elections ended, to the bloody coup d’état by the army against President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in September 1991; from the antigovernment protests of November 2002, to the violent earthquake that hit the Haitian capital in January 2010, leaving in its wake over 250,000 dead and a million homeless; from the spectacular return throughout 2011 of ex-president-for-life Jean-Claude Duvalier and ex-president Jean-Bertrand Aristide, to the inauguration of newly elected president Michel Martelly—these are just a few of the images of devastation and endurance in Thony Belizaire —one man with a camera covering a small nation and a world of trouble. The photographs collected in Thony Belizaire are notable, as Raoul Peck notes in his foreword, “for their violence, their realism, their poetry.” These 100 full-color images are joined here by accompanying text the author was writing for this book right up to his untimely death.
