Csimon Publishing Takes a New Step Toward Young Haitian Authors

The publishing house Csimon Publishing, led by Dr. Cherlin Simon, is excited to announce the creation of a subsidiary of Csimon Publishing in Haiti. Indeed, a management team, aimed at strengthening its approach to young Haitian authors, has been set up by the parent company, located in Virginia, United States. The goal of this initiative is to better support its authors, particularly the younger ones, offering them reliable assistance to foster their creativity and help them thrive. The committee is also in place to better coordinate the publishing house’s actions in their favor. This aligns perfectly with Csimon Publishing’s vision to actively contribute to the elevation of Haitian literary culture on a global scale, while highlighting Haitian talents and creating a bridge between Haïti and the rest of the world, which constitutes global culture. It is worth noting that among the more than 150 works already published by Csimon, most are works by Haitian authors living in Haiti.

A Dynamic and Committed Management Team

The new management team of Csimon Publishing consists of professionals from various backgrounds, all driven by the desire to promote Haitian literature. These influential personalities will bring their expertise to help new talents emerge and strengthen the visibility of the publishing house in Haiti. The committee is made up of Yves Marie Gustave, a well-known figure in the Haitian cultural scene and responsible for public relations. As the founder and artistic director of the theater company Les Ateliers Écriture, he will use his experience to promote Haitian culture and the distribution of works published by Csimon Publishing. Then, there is Joassaint Gelin, a young journalist at Island TV and Radio Le Témoin Haiti, photographer, and influencer. As Csimon Publishing’s ambassador, he will use his platform to promote Csimon Publishing to his followers. The committee also includes Pacome Emanuel, the general coordinator of the Salon du Livre de Port-au-Prince, who brings his expertise in organizing major literary events in Haiti. Moïse François and Mr. Cajuste Makeson, career educators and responsible for proofreading at Csimon Publishing, also serve as coordinators. All members of this committee work under the supervision of Csimon Publishing’s parent company, located in Virginia, to ensure consistent management and an effective strategy to promote Haitian literary culture on a global scale.

An Act of Patriotism and Cultural Commitment

In a context where many foreign companies are withdrawing from Haiti, Csimon Publishing stands out by remaining true to its commitment to Haitian literary culture. Notably, in addition to serving this cause from a distance, they are now doing their best to establish a physical presence in the country. The initiative to strengthen the publishing presence on local territory is also a demonstration of patriotism and hope for the Haitian youth. Through this gesture, Csimon Publishing offers young talents a space to share their creations. This, later on, will lead to reflections aimed at raising awareness of the country’s challenges.

Haïti / Fort Picolet: Historical Guardian of Liberty

Cap-Haïtien, Haiti’s historic jewel, is home to a fascinating architectural relic: Fort Picolet. Built at the end of the 18th century by the French, this imposing bastion majestically dominates the bay of Cap-Haïtien, bearing witness to the tumults of Haitian history and the fierce struggle for independence. The history of Fort Picolet is closely linked to that of Haiti, particularly at the time of the Haitian Revolution. During this tumultuous period, when slaves and freedmen rose up against colonial oppression, the fort was the scene of epic battles and fierce sieges. Sometimes used by French forces, sometimes by Haitian revolutionaries, Fort Picolet was a silent witness to the events that shaped the destiny of the nation. Designed with a strategic vision, the fort embodies the military architecture of its era. Its thick stone walls, strategically positioned cannons and viewpoints overlooking the bay make it an impregnable bastion. Its name, Fort Picolet, pays homage to General Louis Marie, Marquis de Picolet, French governor of Cap-Français at the end of the 18th century. Today, Fort Picolet remains much more than a simple historical monument. It is a living symbol of the resilience and determination of the Haitian people. Visitors who wander through its ruins can feel the imprint of history and contemplate the remains of a tumultuous past. From up there, a panoramic view of the bay of Cap-Haitien is available to them, offering a unique perspective on the strategic importance of this place in the maritime history of Haiti. As a pillar of Haitian tourism, Fort Picolet attracts visitors from around the world. Its historical aura, combined with the natural beauty of its environment, makes it a must-see destination for history and culture lovers. More than just a tourist attraction, Fort Picolet is a poignant testimony to the endless struggle for freedom and the cultural richness of Haiti. Throughout the centuries, Fort Picolet has survived the test of time, reminding everyone that freedom is an inalienable right, hard won and carefully preserved. By exploring its ramparts, contemplating its silent cannons, visitors find themselves immersed in the tormented history of Haiti, a story of courage, resistance and hope. Live an extraordinary experience by virtually visiting the ruins of Fort Picolet: https://haitiwonderland.com/haiti-virtual-reality-ht/monuments-histoire/haiti--fort-picolet--visite-virtuelle/14

Beven brings Haïti among the elite of world slam

This Thursday, November 14, 2024, the young slam artist Youven Beaubrun, Beven by his stage name, qualified Haiti, for the very first time in its history, for the final of the Slam World Cup. This competition, which brings together the best slam artists on the planet, took place on African soil, more precisely in Togo. In a country held by the throat, a country that is dying from start to finish, under the dangerous feat of a certain armed part of its youth, Beven’s extraordinary performance in this competition resonates with the echo of a whole piece of the country, in the thirst for beauty. Beven is the symbol of a youth that refuses to give in to the chaos that surrounds the face of its motherland. Art, slam being his field of specialization, is used in the best possible way to make hope resonate. And to continue to believe that a country that made 1804 cannot afford the luxury of sinking so hard in the face of human history. "It is with pride that I advanced in this competition. Especially with the crisis that is going through the country at the moment. My qualification for the final is an eternal sign of hope, which confirms the fact that not everything in this country will end in death," the young slammer told us before going to compete in the final. The final took place on Saturday, November 16, 2024, where Beven had his chance to represent his wounded land well on the doorstep of a world victory, a victory that if it had taken place, would have been initialed in the name of an entire people, in the absolute race against a great chaos that dreams only of suffocating it. Although he failed to win this cup (finishing in sixth place overall), the Haitian slam champion had time to inspire an entire country during his great journey in this competition. This is only a postponement, next time victory will be achieved for sure.
