This is the audio recording of a live stream I did on Twitch talking about French Colonialism in Haiti.  The live stream is called Hammered & Sickle and I imbibe and talk about Leftist content. Reminder that this information is from Wikipedia so take it for what it's worth. All the links will be in the show notes.  Please forgive my terrible pronunciation of French names and the choppy audio that pops up here...
