About This Lesson
This is very similar to the Meeting of the Estates General Activity I've posted. Students split up into the 3 groups in Pre-Revolutionary Haiti (Saint Domingue) - the whites, free persons of color, and the black slaves. Each group has to create their ideal Haitian Constitution. Then, they get together and debate it using the Notes on the Haitian Constitution Debate Sheet. Finally, they compare what they voted on/created to the actual Haitian Constitution of 1801.
