Do they think that men who have been able to enjoy the blessing of liberty will calmly see it snatched away? They supported thei

r chains only so long as they did not know any condition of life more happy than that of slavery. But to-day when they have left it, if they had a thousand lives they would sacrifice them all rather than be forced into slavery again. But no, the same hand which has broken our chains will not enslave us anew. I declare to you to re-establish slavery would be to attempt the impossible: we have known how to face dangers to obtain our liberty, we shall know how to brave death to maintain it. —Toussaint L'Ouverture, 1797

It would be impossible to re-enslave Haitians since they understand the value of freedom.
Once freedom can be achieved, the people will not appreciate what they have won.
The people of Haiti are unwilling to fight against slavery any longer.

Answer: It would be impossible to re-enslave Haitians since they understand the value of freedom.

Toussaint L'Ouverture was the best-known leader of the Haitian Revolution. L'Ouverture  helped transform the Black insurgency into a revolutionary movement, which made Saint-Domingue, the most prosperous slave colony of the time, into the first free colonial society and the first one to reject race as a basis of social ranking. His actions made the colony a <em>de facto</em> autonomous colony. Moreover, its constitution proclaimed him governor for life.

Why was the triangle factory fire so important?
Westkost [7]
