Join us on Wednesday, February 4, 2026 at 4:00 PM Eastern for a live webinar with Professor Marlene Daut, Professor of French and African Diaspora Studies. In this session, Professor Daut will discuss her newly published book, The First and Last King of Haiti: The Rise and Fall of Henry Christophe, which brings to life one of the most extraordinary—and misunderstood—figures of the Age of Revolution. From enslavement to empire, revolution to monarchy, the story of Henry Christophe defies easy categorization and challenges what we think we know about freedom, power, and leadership in the Atlantic world.
