Hello. I want to tell you all about a website I just constructed on Haitian
Rara: http://rara.wesleyan.edu/
This website features video clips, still photos, and audio clips that were
impossible to publish in my book on Rara festivals in Haiti--but which may be
useful in teaching or in research.
The site includes the 15-minute documentary by Verna Gillis on Rara in Haiti in
the 1970s, as well as photos by Chantal Regnault and Syndey Byrd, and clips of
a new film on Rara in Brooklyn by Jeremy Robins and Magali Damas.
Yours,
Liza McAlister
