Backstory and Context
Text-to-speech Audio
English: The Little Haiti neighborhood is located in the City of Miami’s 5th district and embodies the creation of new spaces of intersectionality. Here, class, race, ethnicity and imperialism meet to generate new narratives and enrich our understandings of what it means to be Haitian-American in Miami and across the US. Furthermore, this neighborhood embodies the transnational routes present in the Atlantic and give us insight into the political involvement of Haitians in the diaspora and the homeland. The buildings, architecture and murals seek to express this unique identities in new and evolving fashion. Together, they form an aesthetic that can’t be duplicated or refashioned due to their unique history and public memory. Sites in Little Haiti continue to challenge boundaries of time and seek to tell their stories in less linear models while continuing to repurpose symbolism from the homeland (and the original homeland of Africa) to maintain connections while forming communities in new spaces. The sites can be broadly categorized into four different groups: religious, secular, murals and public art.
