Today, May 18th, is Haitian Flag Day
The Origin Story- In 1803, revolutionary leader Jean-Jacques Dessalines tore the white stripe out of the French tricolor flag. His goddaughter, seamstress Catherine Flon, stitched the remaining blue and red strips together to signify that diverse groups were uniting as one.
The motto on the flag supports this togetherness; translating to
“Unity Makes Strength”
