Workbook
For Haitian (American) Families
A Workbook on the Earthquake Generation, the American Stigma, and the Pride That Was Always Underneath It
Your ancestors built the first free Black nation. That is what America feared and you must know.
For the Haitian American family navigating anti-Haitian stigma and internalized shame who wants a signed identity charter for how they carry pride and transmit it to their children.
The Name It First Experience
Anti-Haitian stigma did not start with your family. But it lives in your family. This workbook walks you through internalized shame, pride reclamation, and what your children see you carrying. You produce the Haitian American Identity Charter: a signed family document naming how pride is transmitted. The output is not therapy. It is a standing record.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What is the name of what Haiti means in your family — not what America has said about it, but what you know it to be?
- When someone shows their ignorance about Haiti, what is the first feeling — and what do you usually do with it?
- What is the one thing you want every child in your family to know about where they come from — before they hear it from anyone else?
