In Haiti, Professor Gates tells the story of the birth of the first-ever black republic, and finds out how the slaves\u2019s hard fight for liberation over Napoleon Bonaparte\u2019s French Empire became a double-edged sword.<\/p>\n<p><strong>**Thank you to those people who have pointed out that the film opens with a guaguanc\u00f3, rather than merengue, and many apologies for this error.  The producers commissioned several merengue pieces from Grupo Bony\u00e9 and were assured that they were of this genre. The online version has been updated and this corrected version will be used for subsequent television broadcasts of the series.<\/strong><\/p>\n<style>.video-wrap {position: relative;  padding-bottom: 56.25%;
