Francois Dominique Toussaint L'Ouverture was a Haitian patriot and martyr.

A self-educated slave, Toussaint was freed shortly before the Haitian
uprising in 1791. He joined the Black rebellion to liberate the slaves and
became its organizational genius. During this time, the Black people of
Haiti, most of them slaves, had risen in revolt against their French
masters under the leadership of the 51-year old Toussaint.

Rapidly rising in power, Toussaint joined forces for a brief period in 1793
with the Spanish of Santo Domingo and in a series of fast-moving campaigns
