This Thursday, November 14, 2024, the young slam artist Youven Beaubrun, Beven by his stage name, qualified Haiti, for the very first time in its history, for the final of the Slam World Cup. This competition, which brings together the best slam artists on the planet, took place on African soil, more precisely in Togo. In a country held by the throat, a country that is dying from start to finish, under the dangerous feat of a certain armed part of its youth, Beven’s extraordinary performance in this competition resonates with the echo of a whole piece of the country, in the thirst for beauty. Beven is the symbol of a youth that refuses to give in to the chaos that surrounds the face of its motherland. Art, slam being his field of specialization, is used in the best possible way to make hope resonate. And to continue to believe that a country that made 1804 cannot afford the luxury of sinking so hard in the face of human history. "It is with pride that I advanced in this competition. Especially with the crisis that is going through the country at the moment. My qualification for the final is an eternal sign of hope, which confirms the fact that not everything in this country will end in death," the young slammer told us before going to compete in the final. The final took place on Saturday, November 16, 2024, where Beven had his chance to represent his wounded land well on the doorstep of a world victory, a victory that if it had taken place, would have been initialed in the name of an entire people, in the absolute race against a great chaos that dreams only of suffocating it. Although he failed to win this cup (finishing in sixth place overall), the Haitian slam champion had time to inspire an entire country during his great journey in this competition. This is only a postponement, next time victory will be achieved for sure.

The Haitian Creole, born in the 17th century during the French colonization on the island of Hispaniola, is not only a communication tool; it is an essential part of the Haitian identity. Despite being recognized as an official language in 1987, French is still considered an elite language, creating a social divide. In the educational system, where French is the language of instruction, Creole is often neglected, which affects the ability of students to understand what they are learning, especially for children from rural areas. It has a unique grammatical structure that facilitates learning, and serves as a means of cultural expression in literature, music, and other arts. The advancement of technology will allow Creole to gain more visibility in social media, but the stigmatization of the language still exists. Therefore, it is important for Creole to be valued in education and other sectors, to allow the new generation to grow up with pride for their heritage. The Haitian Creole language, which is the first language for the majority of people in Haiti, is not only a means of communication, but it is also a reflection of the cultural wealth and history of the people. In a country full of diversity, Creole and its origin, its evolution and its place in society, is a testimony of resistance and adaptation.
