The Haitian Assassins were the Brotherhood of Assassins located in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, formed during the mid-18th century.
History
By 1732, François Mackandal became the Mentor of the Haitian Brotherhood, made contact with the slaves Agaté, Baptiste and Jeanne, and occupied his time with educating them. Additionally, Mackandal taught both Agaté and Baptise the art of creating poisons, and trained them in combat. While Agaté felt compassion for Jeanne, Baptise did not, which caused friction between the two.[1]
By 1738, Agaté and Baptiste were officially inducted into the Assassin Order. Jeanne, however, having grown fearful of Mackandal's violent methods, refused to ally herself with the Assassins and decided to stay behind at the plantation. At some point, Mackandal became acquainted with Antó, a Caribbean Assassin and the Kingston bureau leader. Antó offered his services to Mackandal, in order to liberate slaves and strengthen the Maroon cause. Mackandal rejected his aid while belittling Antó's Mentor, Ah Tabai, whom he referred to as too soft.[2]
During the Haitian Revolution, the Assassins largely supported the struggle for independence. The revolutionaries were led by several members of the Brotherhood, including Toussaint Louverture and Eseosa.[3]
In 1971, the Assassins eliminated François Duvalier for his tyrannical rule over Haiti.[4]
