In this episode of the Learn Real Polish podcast, I talk about Haiti and Polish Haitians, people of Polish and African ancestry. It’s interesting that Haiti’s first president referred to Poles as European white Negroes. I also explain how Haitian Voodoo has absorbed the Black Madonna of Czestochowa as its main loa. As always, the full Polish transcription is available to all premium users.
