The 1960's brought forth a wave of Haitian Diaspora who sought education outside of Haiti toured the world, pursued the arts and various cultural expressive experiences and the decade is known for a burst of Haitian energy that released from the small country. First generation Haitians met and married outside of their culture and second generation Haitian children who learned about their culture began to grow up away from the country, learning stories, songs, dances and lore coming from hundreds of years of rich culture handed down. A new kind of Diaspora was born.
