    In this powerful opening episode of the Summer 2026: Under the Haitian Skin series, we begin a 12‑week journey into the unseen, the unspoken, and the deeply misunderstood layers of Haitian history. The Sins of Haiti: Dared to Be Free revisits the moment Haiti committed what the world once treated as an unforgivable crime: the audacity to claim freedom. Told entirely in Haitian Creole, with transcripts available for translation and accessible to listeners with intermediate Creole proficiency, this 30‑minute episode blends poetic narration, humor, and historical truth as Souvni and Valentin guide us from the arrival of Columbus to the rise of a revolutionary people who refused to break. This summer, from June 12 to August 28, join us every Friday at 8 PM as we peel back the layers of identity, psychology, survival, and spirit that live under the Haitian skin.
