When I considered writing a 📕about the Haitian Rev & film, I thought it would be ultra-niche. Who but my #Haitian Studies colleagues would care?
It's been very unexpected that #SROS found readers across disciplines & outside academia. It's out 5 years & I got a new invite (in NOLA!) today. 🤯
Text: Haitian Creole Bible (https://biblehub.com/hcb/esther/3.htm) 1Kèk tan apre sa, wa Asyeris mete yon nonm ki te rele Aman nan yon gwo pozisyon. Li nonmen l' chèf sou tout lòt chèf nan peyi a apre wa a. Aman sa a te pitit Amedata, moun fanmi wa Agag. 2Wa a pase lòd pou tout anplwaye gouvènman li mete ajenou, bese tèt yo jouk atè devan Aman pou montre jan yo respekte l'. Tout anplwaye yo te fè sa vre esepte Ma-do-chay ki te derefize fè bagay konsa. 3Lòt anplwaye yo mande Ma-do-chay poukisa li t'ap dezobeyi lòd wa a te bay la
For my #Haitian (or Jewish) peeps, is this cute or what? I've got Esther 3:1-3. I'll ham it up when it's my turn: I'll be the first chanting (H)aman's name tonight.
'Bowing' is not a thing in Haiti, so the translation's lively: li mete ajenou, bese tèt yo jouk atè devan.

The use of folk healers is often limited because the medicinal preparations and elements of traditional health care are not available locally. The size of the local #Haitian group affects the number of traditional healers.
Health care beliefs vary widely among #Haitian Americans. Immigrants from rural areas usually do not seek help from a physician but rely instead on folk healers
some refugees attempted suicide while in detention. Despite the odds, the #Haitian refugees had the energy and determination to survive in the United States.
#Haitian Americans, by nature, have a strong belief in the culture, traditions and mores of their homeland.
#Haitian immigrants from the cities are more likely to go to a physician or other professional health care provider.
#Haitian immigrants rely on folk medicine to cure ordinary aliments or they seek a private clinic with #Haitian medical personnel.
#Haitian immigrants to the United States, especially the more recent ones, communicate best in #Creole. This causes problems in interaction with Americans who have little knowledge of #Creole and believe that all #Haitians speak #French

#Haitian Americans often believe that only traditional healers have the knowledge and skills to treat particular illnesses so that it does not make sense to take these complaints to an American doctor.
#Haitian Americans also maintain contact with a network of friends and neighbors. This network enables them to know what is happening around their communities and to help each other
#Haitian Americans often have problems with the behavior of American physicians during an office visit. Patients respect doctors who try to learn about their cultural beliefs and practices.
#Haitian American children seem to accept these customs and values despite the freer attitudes and lifestyles they see in their American counterparts.
#Haitian Americans are hard-working and use the lower-status jobs as springboards to better, more permanent positions.
#Haitian Americans from a lower social class or those who have not attained legal status in the United States rely on health care that is readily available to them such as home remedies, family recommendations, folk healers, and Voodoo medicine.
#Haitian Americans perceive differences between themselves and other Blacks
#Haitian American parents are generally strict with their children, as is customary in Haiti. The children are monitored by the adults of the family.
#Haitian Americans cannot easily merge with the rest of the black population because of their language and culture.
#Haitian Americans believe that several types of illness are of supernatural origin and caused by angry spirits.
