Let me put this in context for you. Haiti qualifying for the FIFA World Cup yesterday—after 51 years—is not just a big deal; it’s a seismic, history-shaking accomplishment.

Why?

Because exactly 222 years ago to the day, our ancestors looked an entire Napoleonic army dead in the eye and told them to fuck all the way off, and in doing so, we became the first Black, formerly enslaved nation on this planet to win our freedom. #haitiintheworldcup ##grenadiers

So yeah… this means something. This means everything.
