I'll show you my works, just Look at the upped thread for one. Now show me yours
I heard of LE NORMALIEN but have no clue where it is. I went to both Saint Louis campuses. Both downtown and Delmas 31. The last year I was in Haiti I spent half a year at Centre D'Etudes because I came back from the states late and Saint Louis wouldn't let me back in being 3 months late to the school year.
I actually went to school with 2 of the guys from Carimi and am still cool with them. Both Carl Vieux and Alex Thebaud .

I couldnt marry a yank, breh. Almost be like me marrying a white chick to some degree. Certain things about being haitian in this country that she simply couldnt relate to and a spouse needs to to be able to do that.Dont get me wrong Ive dated black americans and I'm obsessed with an ex of mine who's black American from NC. The story of me and her is well documented on this forum. She's like my ultimate weakness in life...my kryptonite. When she calls i drop everything i have going on and just float onto cloud 9. THe brawd got me smitten.
Just too bad we could never make it work (or put the effort into it at the same time)
Even when we're both in other relationships we find ways to find each other and wind up fukking 
But lately ive been sticking more to caribbean chicks but yanks

I didnt really start messing with Yank chicks much until i moved to Atlanta. Back in SOuth FL i think i only fukked with like 2 of them. 2 freaks.
And i wouldnt say that they are easy. Just that haitian and other caribbean chicks be on that shyt about not giving up the p*ssy too easily. Whereas American chicks know what they want and wont let anything get in their way.
i feel bad for my Carribbean and african brehs who never fukk with black american chicks because they perceive them as too much drama. It's an experience that every black man on earth should enjoy.
I learned a whole lot about the transatlantic trade (we used to call it the triangle trade in 4th grade) because I'm Angolan...and Angola is a country which had a major, if not the biggest slave port in Africa (Luanda). I learned more about slavery than in the US, but I also did learn quite a bit about slavery within the US which was sort of different.
Feel free to ask more questions if you will.

Explain the differences in what you were taught about slavery in Angola & here in the States.
For starters, in Angola the story always begins with the reason for the discovery of sub-saharan Africa in the first place; which is the fact that the Spanish (and the Portuguese) were looking for a route to India that did not include traveling the pirate riddled mediterranean sea (I'm talking late 1400's). So Diogo Cão was sent to circumvent Africa, of which the Europeans were only familiar with the North, and the man ended up chopping it up with the officials of the Bakongo Kingdom (North of Angola and South of Congo).
(basically it was the beginning of the fukkery breh).Then we learn about the process of negotiations for slaves and introduction of religion (which the kings of Bakongo got completely enthralled by) and ultimately the invasion of the portuguese army in Bakongo soil. It's 12am so I'm not gonna get too deep into it.
It's kinda sad to hear an African-American painfully complain about how Africans just gave their men and women away as slaves...and it's sickening when cacs say the same. But I always remind myself that most Americans aren't familiar with the story of the Kwata Kwata wars.
Eventually we have to learn about the transatlantic trade as it's the height of the slave trade in all of European history and it marks the point in time when the colonization began to bear it's most ripe fruits for the portuguese and cacs around the world in general.
------------
In the US the beginning of the European expansion is not really taught at all (maybe because Americans don't consider themselves european I guess). So all one really learns is about the process of slavery (how a slave farm was ran in America), the fact that slaves came from Africa (with Amistad as reference) and the civil war. There's more emphasis on the civil rights movement really, which makes sense as it's the movement that most African-Americans can relate to the most today.
Most of the history is left for autodidacts, the "Roots" book was introduced to me in America...and honestly I've never watched the movie, but I did read the whole book and the story of Kunta Kinte will forever reside in my memories.
Edit: Moreover I'd like to emphasize that as an African, there's much I gained from the emphasis on US education regarding the civil right's movement. That's because observing African-Americans dealings with the new forms of oppression is infinitely valuable for my understanding of the worldwide present history just as much as my knowledge of the past (gained in Africa).
The african-american battlefield is very different from my own back home, but both battlefields are intrinsically connected.
Meaning I can only gain from watching you all and understanding your struggles (which admittedly isn't hard at all once one learns of your history).
