Redemption Song

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Second of seven programmes in which Jamaican-born Stuart Hall explores the deep roots from which the unique culture of today's Caribbean has grown. Out of Africa
Andre Pierre is a Haitian artist and a voodoo priest. Before he paints, he prays for inspiration to the gods of Africa. Nowhere in the Caribbean is Africa as undiluted as in this impoverished country which was once the world's only black republic. Tonight's vivid film traces back through
Haiti's dramatic history to find the reason why. Hall compares Haiti with Jamaica, home of Bob Marley , reggae and rastafarianism. There the heritage is different, but equally rich.
