Jazz was born in Louisiana. Could it be that a population of teenagers, almost all of them male, were inspired to develop their own music as a way to speak, to compete, to announce who they were to the world? Bomba in Puerto Rico, Maculelê in Brazil, jazz in Louisiana—all gave people a chance to be alive, to be human, to have ideas, and dreams, and passions when their owners claimed they were just cogs in a machinery built to produce sugar. The sugar workers spoke in another way too. In 1811, Charles Deslondes, a free person of color from Saint-Domingue, led what is sometimes called the largest slave revolt in US history. He gathered slaves to attack a plantation, then head down toward New Orleans. Met by troops composed of both blacks and whites, some sixty-six slaves were killed, as well as two whites. The rebellion failed. But it is a sign of the strong link between Louisiana and Haiti. Whites remembered their rule on the island; blacks remembered their fight for freedom. –from Sugar Changed the World,
