Haiti - Culture : The great historical and cultural projects of Minister Delva 17/06/2018 08:09:32 "The Slave Route" is the name of a historic project (initiated under the Minister Stéphanie Villedroin in 2014). https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-10622-haiti-news-some-news-here-and-there.html that Minister Joseph Guyler C. Delva plans to launch in the country by next year. This project aims to honor our ancestors who have given, at the price of their blood, the true meaning to humanity by breaking the chains of slavery. "This project will make Haiti a land of pilgrimage not only for the black peoples, but also for all those who believe in freedom in a logic of solidarity and reconciliation for a true duty of remembrance" stating that several talks have already initiated in Canada, with international organizations, ministers of culture from other countries and many artists of Haitian origin interested in this project. In addition, he announced the imminent installation of a bust in memory of Boukman in Bois-Caiman on instruction of the Head of State. Accompanied by members of the Nemours Jean Baptiste Foundation and students from the Institute of Studies and African Studies of Haiti State University, Minister Delva also announced the installation of the memorial bust of Nemours Jean Baptiste on July 26, on Place Sainte-Anne. Other activities in memory of the Creator of the "Konpa Dirèk" will take place for the celebration of its 100th anniversary. A committee will be set up to manage the Nemours Jean-Baptiste Fund, which will be used to implement projects aimed at making the "Konpa Dirèk" permanent. Finally, he said he was in talks with the New York City Hall to repatriate to Haiti the remains of Antoine Rossini Jean Baptiste "Ti Manno" which is a Haitian cultural heritage. Traditional dance and drumming competitions are also announced on July 22 to promote young talents and promote Haitian culture. HL/ HaitiLibre
