Richman, Migration and Vodou — Chapter Notes Parent source note: richman migration and vodou Introduction / Chapter 1 — "The Transnational Villagers of Ti Rivyè" Core Frame Richman opens by establishing the book's two-site structure: Ti Rivyè (Léogane plain, haiti) and Palm Beach County / Fort Pierce, Florida. By the mid-1980s three out of four Ti Rivyè families had at least one member working in south Florida. The book studies this as a single, transnational social field — not two separate communities but one community stretched across national borders.
