Island Revolts
These animated videos take viewers on a fast-paced, witty ride through the history of revolts across all the Caribbean islands, from the pre-Columbian era to independence or regime change.
I’m from St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands raised in the U.S., and my parents and grandparents are from St. Kitts and Nevis. I started Island Revolts to research and share island history with my kids and family, and it’s amazing to see it connect with so many like-minded people. My family is spread across the Caribbean, speaking different languages just like many of you, and my goal is to continue bringing accurate history to you in a fun and engaging way.

Help me settle a Haitian Occupation vs Unification debate.
I’ve read the letters Boyer and Núñez exchanged at the time, but later retellings seem to blur intent and outcome. I’m trying to understand how much of what we call history is perspective and how much was rewritten afterward.

The channel just hit 10,000 subscribers today—thank you all for subscribing and the support. My goal is to release at least two history videos a month and to cover every country in the Caribbean. Feel free to leave suggestions for future topics.
I’m also testing new AI tools, so thank you for your patience as I learn how to make the characters more consistent and the storytelling more accurate, both visually and historically.
