A painful anniversary puts renewed focus on Haiti's demands for reparations from France

April 17th is the 200th anniversary of the independence of Haiti - but also of the indemnity agreement with France that was a condition of independence. Over the next 122 years, Haiti paid an estimated $21 billion to France. Haitians have been pushing for reparations and French President Emmanuel Macron now says he will set up a joint Franco-Haitian commission to examine France's history with its former Caribbean colony. Marco Werman speaks with Marlene Daut, a professor of French and African diaspora studies at Yale University.
