La Haiti, a Drama of the Black Napoleon
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a powerful and groundbreaking theatrical production that premiered at the Lafayette Theatre in Harlem, New York, in 1938. The play, written by the renowned sociologist, historian, and civil rights activist W.E.B. Du Bois, tells the story of Toussaint L'Ouverture, the Haitian revolutionary leader who led his people to independence from French colonial rule in the late 18th century. This striking poster, created for the production, features a bold and stylized image of Du Bois's interpretation of the Black Napoleon, Toussaint L'Ouverture. The poster's design is reminiscent of the WPA (Works Progress Administration) era, with its bold typography and dynamic use of color. The image of the Black Napoleon, depicted in military regalia and with an intense, determined expression, conveys the strength and resilience of the Haitian people and their leader. The production of "La Haiti" was significant for its time, as it was one of the few works to focus on the history and experiences of people of African descent in the Americas. Du Bois's play was a call to action, urging audiences to recognize the achievements and struggles of the Haitian people and to fight for progress and equality. The play's themes of resistance, self-determination, and the power of community resonated deeply with the African American community in Harlem and beyond. This poster is a testament to the enduring impact of Du Bois's work and the importance of preserving the history and stories of underrepresented communities. It serves as a reminder of the power of art and theatre to inspire, educate, and bring people together in the pursuit of social justice.
