    Description

    Authentic t-shirt sold in the streets of Port-au-Prince during the Feb 7th, 1986 Haitian revolution. The nationwide rebellion against the then-dictatorship of Jean-Claude Duvalier forced him and his wife Michèle Bennett out of the country courtesy of an Air Force jet provided by the US government. The 100% cotton t-shirt is size "L". The front of the t-shirt brandishes the original tricolor Haitian flag which made its return in the scene (to replace the vertical red & black bands flag used during the Duvalier dictatorship). The back of the t-shirt shows the French inscription "Vive Haiti, vive la Liberté, vive the 7 Février 86" (Long live Haiti, long live Liberty, long live February 7, '86).
