Haiti - Social : Message of Daniel Supplice to the diaspora 18/05/2012 12:17:31
"Dear Compatriots living abroad, I invite you to commemorate your respective communities the 209th anniversary of the creation of the Haitian Bicolor, this Friday, May 18, 2012. It is especially important that you transmit to your children the feeling of belonging to this symbol of pride and rally that we have inherited from our ancestors. While many historians are divided on the exact date of the creation of the Haitian flag (May 18, 1803), they align themselves, by cons, on the symbolism of these two pieces of fabric sewn by Catherine Flon at the 'congrès de l'Arcahaie'. History records that Dessalines ripped the white of the French flag and glued red and blue to make the Haitian flag. Since then, the native troops have adopted it as a rallying symbol and as a token of our freedom gained by the sweat and blood. Today, he is struck in the middle of arms of the Republic overcame of the cap to the bishop. The Haitian flag appears in all major global events where the country is invited. It switches constantly like 192 others at the headquarters of United Nations (UN). All Haitian shiver when, Wyclef Jean agitates the Haitian bicolor in a world cup final, Pierre Garçon waving the flag at the end of a Super Bowl game, when Sarodj Bertin and Anédie Azaël carry the flag or a Haitian Costume to an international beauty contest... we can only be proud. On this day, do not hesitate to adorn your houses of this emblem, to wave it during the social events around this historic day how important." HL/ HaitiLibre
