two years after the meeting in alligator woods, on august 29, 1793, the leading french official on saint domingue realized that there was no point in opposing toussaint and his armies. the slaves had freed themselves. and the following february, paris agreed. the ideal of brotherhood announced by the revolutionaries of paris finally included the sugar workers of saint domingue.
