Synopsis
Excerpt from Observations sur Saint-Dominigue
Mais ce n'est pas sous de pareils auspices que la liberté s'est annoncée à saint-domingue %e3u coup de' blancs n'ont point senti de quelle importance il étoit pour eux de l'offrir généreusement aux nègres. Les nègres de leur côté ont été trop appris à la regarder comme l'objet d'une conquête légitime. On leur a révélé le secret de leur force et dès-lors, au lieu de regarder les colons comme des chefs de famille qui pour l'avantage commun devoient changer avec eux leurs anciens rapports, ils les ont regardés comme des tyrans contre lesquels toute entreprise étoit à la fois permise et facrle.
