Graph review in this pass: Created trou coffy insurgency, abbe ouviere, beatriz kimpa vita, and leogane; strengthened romaine rivière, yellow fever, african ethnicities saint domingue, moc historiography, moc resistance, moc people, moc society culture, and moc sources Overview Rey gives the vault one of its sharpest correctives to any simple Vodou-only story of revolutionary religion. His central claim is not that Vodou was irrelevant, but that figures like romaine rivière were operating through a much wider sacred field that included Catholic prophecy, Marian devotion, Kongo religious inheritances, healing, talismans, gender inversion, and Atlantic priestly networks. That matters enormously for Haiti work.
