Unmasking the Devil: The Truth Behind Haiti’s Poverty and White Supremacy

The Devil has been found, and he apparently resides in Haiti according to Pastor Keion D Henderson. In a controversial sermon, Henderson claimed that Haiti’s poverty is due to the introduction of voodoo by African slaves in the 1700s. However, a closer look at history reveals a different story.

Contrary to Henderson’s claims, voodoo is not the reason for Haiti’s economic struggles. The country’s poverty can be traced back to the aftermath of the Haitian Revolution, where the newly freed Black population faced economic sanctions and reparations imposed by Western powers. The legacy of slavery and colonialism, not voodoo, is the root cause of Haiti’s poverty.

Henderson’s statements have been met with criticism and fact-checking, with many pointing out the inaccuracies in his claims. The demonization of voodoo and the perpetuation of white supremacist narratives only serve to further marginalize the Haitian people and ignore the true history of their struggle for independence.

As the debate continues, it is important to remember the resilience and strength of the Haitian people in the face of adversity. The true spirit of Haiti lies in its history of resistance and perseverance, not in the false narratives perpetuated by those who seek to blame voodoo for the country’s challenges.
