Summary

Here I introduce the text’s main argument, that the web of networks between African and creole runaways, slaves, and a small number of free people of color built through rituals and marronnage was a key aspect to building the racial solidarity that made the Haitian Revolution successful. The theoretical framework for this comes from my attempts to bridge thoughts from Sociology and African Diaspora Studies, more specifically using insights from scholarship on the Black Radical Tradition to correct and contribute to the sociology of collective consciousness, social movements, and revolutions.
