The photographs presented in this book certainly have a common goal : to make visible to Haitians as well as the entire world the multiple and contradicting living memories of one of the most tragic and major events in modern Haitian history : the Kazal massacre in 1969, under François Duvalier’s dictatorship. On the other hand, the perspective of five Haitian photographers who think, see, and photograph this very same memory, drawing from their own experience as Haitians, all part of the first post-Duvalierist generation.
