An anti-immigrant law in #Ohio draws parallels to historical racism, particularly hostility toward Black #Haitian immigrants.

When teaching the Haitian Revolution, I like to emphasize the role of women as one of the many things that makes the revolution radical. Patricia Brintle has painted a series of paintings of Haitian women.
We also have a panel in the graphic history of the Haitian Revolution.
You can learn more, including more images, about how to teach the role of women in the Haitian Revolution at Liberating Narratives.
