This thesis examines the representations of Haiti in the black and white American press throughout the United States Occupation, 1915-1934, and in the wake of the 2010 earthquake. It analyses how Haiti's revolutionary and colonial history has been variously celebrated and ignored, and as well as the context in which such representations took place.This thesis examines the representations of Haiti in the black and white American press throughout the United States Occupation, 1915-1934, and in the wake of the 2010 earthquake.
