Papa Doc Duvalier’s Haiti Shows Repression, Propaganda, and Power Passing to His Son
United States - Circa 1980: Footage shows Papa Doc Duvalier’s Haiti as armed police and Tonton Macoute crush dissent. Propaganda and voodoo imagery elevate him to president for life. Views of a fortresslike palace, anti aircraft guns, and rare public outings with a Tommy gun and cash. Streets show fear, poverty, and extortion. Mourning follows his death and the handoff to son Jean Claude, as a subdued nation accepts the regime’s spell. (Footage by Roberto Machado Noa/Getty Images)
