Discover Haitian traditions, language, music, food, art, celebrations, storytelling and the cultural connections shared across generations.
Haitian culture lives in many places. It can be heard in a conversation, tasted in a favorite dish, felt in music and seen in the traditions Haitians continue to share in Haiti and around the world.
Culture is not only something found in history books or displayed during special celebrations. It can be part of everyday life. The language people speak, the meals families prepare, the music playing at a gathering and the stories older relatives tell can all carry pieces of Haitian culture.
Traditions can also change as families move, generations grow and communities develop in different parts of the world. A Haitian family in Port-au-Prince may experience some traditions differently from a Haitian family in Miami, New York, Boston, Montreal, Paris or another community.
Those differences do not erase the connection. They show the many ways Haitian culture continues to travel, adapt and remain meaningful.
No single article can contain an entire culture. These are some of the places where viewers can begin exploring.
