On Aug. 23, 1791, enslaved people in what now is Haiti and the Dominican Republic rose up against French colonialists and gained their independence in 1804. Today UNESCO’s International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and Its Abolition celebrates enslaved Africans fighting for freedom.

Except for her boss for whom she does deeds, rather than for the country, who was convicted of 34 felony counts for illegally influencing the 2016 election. And the thousands he pardoned for storming the capitol.
