Georges Biassou



Biassou was the chief early leader of the 1791 slave rising that began the Haïtian Revolution. With Jean François and Jeannot, he was prophecied by Dutty Boukman to lead the revolution, and fought with the Spanish royalists against the French Revolutionary authorities in colonial Haïti.
