This thesis analyzes three of the plays inspired by the Haitian Revolution and written by black playwrights. The first chapter covers William Edgar Easton's Dessalines, a Dramatic Tale: A Single Chapter from Haiti's History. It discusses Easton's decision to depict Dessalines as a man of faith, a believer, a Christian. The second chapter employs Langston Hughes' play, Troubled Island, to argue Dessalines' modernity. The third play, by Saint Lucian playwright Derek Walcott, is The Haitian Earth. The thesis concludes with a brief discussion of his play and its contribution to black consciousness. I propose that the revolution plays a major role in World History, and argue that the Haitian Revolution served as a looking glass to many African Americans in search of a black identity.
