Haiti's long shadowed past and peopled present emerge

A Nat Geographic style sketch portrays Haiti as a crowded, poor nation on Hispaniola. It traces its history from Arawak roots through Indian, pirate, and French planter eras to a slave led Black republic. The piece notes droughts, politics, a 1969 coffee export reliance, Duvalier's death, and a mix of Christianity and voodoo shaping daily life.
