In another episode of thePMshow, Philippe SHOCK Matthews and his esteemed guests talked about the history of Haiti. Unlike reading from books or listening to teachers in school, however, this episode delves into the hidden history of Haiti.

This review will provide you a summary and a few snippets of the discussion and the 1804 – The Hidden History of Haiti review. So make sure to watch the entire show above to get all the juicy and educational details.

In this episode you will hear thoughts about the film that filmmaker Tariq Nasheed made from Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene, Dr. David Imhotep, and Professor James Small. Listen to profound comments in this 1804 – the Hidden History of Haiti review.

Filmmaker Tariq Nasheed is the director of the ongoing documentary film series Hidden Colors that describe and explain the marginalizing of African Americans in America and the rest of the world.

There are 4 episodes of the Hidden Colors series that have been released so far:

Hidden Colors: The Untold History Of People Of Aboriginal, Moor, and African Descent
Hidden Colors 2: The Triumph of Melanin
Hidden Colors 3: The Rules of Racism
Hidden Colors 4: The Religion of White Supremacy

CBS Atlanta called the film controversial. But BET reviewed it as “one of the most successful Black independent documentaries”.

1804 – The Hidden History of Haiti is intended as episode #5 of Hidden Colors, adding another installation to the Hidden Colors series. An associate producer who has been a part of the documentaries expressed an interest about it to Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene.

The plan was to seek the professor’s expertise to cover the hidden history of Haiti and the Haitian Revolution and to discuss it in a language that the African people speak. The show, 1804 – The Hidden History of Haiti, will be presented from their perspective and will go back to when it actually began, which is earlier than 1804.

Philippe SHOCK Matthews describes the trailer as something he’d never seen before and it presents a side of the victory of the African people that has never been seen.

Many wars fought by the African people were never shown or even discussed. The film 1804 – The Hidden History of Haiti intends to remedy this with the focus of the untold story of the Haitian Revolution.

Filmmaker Tariq Nasheed included a lot of re-enactments in the film that Professor James Small calls not even enough to truly describe the amount of genocide that actually happened. Still, it brought a different level of awareness about the African people and the hidden history of the Haitian Revolution.

There are also plenty of lessons to learn from the Hidden Colors series.

Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene, who has been a part of the Hidden Colors since the beginning, lauded the way filmmaker Tariq Nasheed and his staff promoted the film series. He shared a story about the time the first Hidden Colors series were shown where young people came to watch even if their expectations were completely different from what the show is all about.

In closing the show, Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene has this to say, “we have to understand that when we understand our history and we understand who we are as a people, when we understand what we’ve done and where we’ve been then we can understand where we need to be.”

He emphasizes the need to unite regardless of all differences, “It may be of a people who speak a different language and then I speak and it may be geographically in a place that is not like me. But the nature of the color of my skin and the color of their skin no matter who they were, they have treated us the same. So we have a common history together as to what is and we have impacted each other. And we have got to begin to act like we are all related and come together in a way that we can solve some of the great challenges and meet the needs of our people.”

It is clear from the 1804 – the Hidden History of Haiti review, based on the comments of Professor James Small, Professor Kaba Hiawatha Kamene, and Dr. David Imhotep that 1804 – The Hidden History of Haiti is worth watching.

It will be an enlightening experience, showing a different perspective about the African people and the truth about the Haitian Revolution.
