West Indies: The Fugitive Slaves of Liberty
A series of reenactments and spirited dance sequences propels the narrative across time to examine the impact of French colonial policy on the colonized and enslaved and their descendants. By capturing diverse responses—from resignation to rebellion—and scrutinizing colonial motivation, West Indies (1979, NR) invites a reevaluation and reclaiming of the history of resistance and the ongoing struggle for liberty.
