Additional Information
After a career outside the cultural sphere, Pierre-Roland Bain devoted himself entirely to promoting Creole culture in all its forms once he retired. As the founder of Creole Month and the founding president of the International Committee for the Promotion of Creole and Literacy (KEPKAA), he provided us with a midpoint review of the activities from the first two weeks of October while highlighting upcoming events not to be missed. This lover of literature, music, and theater is a veritable walking encyclopedia. During our interview, we discussed several topics, such as the history of Haiti through its key figures: Toussaint Louverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines. In fact, the evening of Saturday, October 17, will pay tribute to Dessalines with a performance featuring the virtuoso pianist David Bontemps. Sandra Gasana spoke with Mr. Bain for PANM360.
