I think one of the things I appreciated the most about Nocturne was the protagonism on the Haitian Revolution.

This was a revolution that didn't just change Haiti, it changed the world. This was the revolution that would make the first black state. The first slaveless state. That would make every slave nation tremble with fear, from Europe To America to Asia to Oceania to Africa. It was what was never meant to happen, but did.

It's the nation that would defeat Napoleon and the British marine. Nobody could take down Haiti. You know why Napoleon went to colonize Europe? Haiti. That's why. He couldn't take down Haiti. Couldn't make it french territory again. So, he turned towards Europe.

We are talking about an undefeated nation.

AND! AND! A largely Vodu nation!

I was SO happy to see Vodu be portrayed as the wonderful religion it is, sacred and divinely intertwined with the Haitian revolution. The revolution was noted to start with Vodu chants and ritual.

White people refused to understand the link between the two worlds that could bring ancestors to meet their descendants. They created zombies as a horror trope. They made vodu dolls as a horror gimmick. They took a sacred religion and reduced it and vilanized it.

And I'm so happy to see it being positively portrayed in such a famous media. Vodu practicioners have already made media of the like. But I was positively surprised with what Nocturne had to present to us.

Of course, the knowledge that the french revolution was incomplete, that it was NOT FOR EVERYONE, is then again, something I really appreciate as a history student and a person. The french revolution killed mostly peasent and established the bourgeoisie, but did it end the Noir Code? No. Did it establish women's and black people's suffrage? No. Did it make a agrarian reform? No. Was it for the people? It had it's importance. But it was, at the very least, not for all the people.

And let's not forget that the french revolution's main intellectual current would birth biological racism, an unscientific current that claimed evidence of "different sized skulls" for example to prove humans possessed different races based on phenotypes.

Last, but certainly not least: it is absurd to see people claim that "all indigenous people have been killed". Acknowledging multi-ethnic indigenous genocide HAS to go along with the respect that there STILL are indigenous people and they continue their fight for their lives and land.

You know who the show demonstrates as such? Olrox.

While I don't appreciate the show claiming "all of his people were slaughtered" as that is historically inaccurate, I was most happy to see an Aztec vampire present and very alive, connected to his culture, protagonizing the show. The Nahua are still very much alive and kicking and I appreciated that the show took that into account.

And Annette! Sweet Annette being one of the leads makes me most joyful. I can't stand idiots that claim her presence.on France was """historically innacurate""", check again, dumbasses, free black people were all over France (especially the children of black Caribbean elites, for example, from Haiti back then known as Saint-Domingue, which did not possess universities and would sent their children to study in Europe.)

Anyway. To see her star as one of the leads made me so incredibly happy. She's a wonderful character and I appreciate how they let Annette be unapologetic and direct, especially during a moment between revolutions were she was very aware the french revolution didn't mean shit to her people.

But she was so lovely and to see her afro-caribean religion present AND source of her power made me emotional more than a few times.

Castlevania Nocturne really did hit this nail on the head.

Anyways. To make sure I give people answers to "but where's the evidence to x thing you said?" Here are my sources:

You know something I always think about? The na'vi's reaction to finding out about how kinda similar some of earth's culture is to theirs (e.g Africans, Native Americans/Indigenous peoples) and Maori people (especially in regards to Pukana).

Same thing in regards to braided hairstyles.

Me too!

Like imagine the Metkayina and Pacific islanders meeting eachother and bonding over their tattoos and pukana. also i’m not sure if pacific islanders have spirit animals like indigenous americans but if they do that would be super cool to bond over! like the Metkayina introducing their tulkuns, i know for a fact if it wasn’t the fact that it’s the skypeople, they’d definitely bond over their culture and love of nature.

And the omaticaya, since they’re already living with skypeople, i’m sure they have met their fair share of black kings and queens! like Max Patel. So just imagine them coming together to share similarities between African culture on Earth and the Na’vi culture from the forest. Especially with the hair braiding, sharing the significance of black hair styles and also the clothes! Mo’at’s are inspired by the indigenous tribe, so imagine how cool if someone from Earth were to recognise it!

I’m so excited to see the 3rd movie and how they incorporate the Ash tribe and i hope to see another new culture! Maybe indigenous american or asian?

Also, do you guys have anything i can learn? i’m all for sharing cultures! And i would love to get to know who you guys are!

#pls teach me i love learning #all cultures are beautiful #🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼#avatar the way of water #metkayina #pacific islander #māori #haitian #african #indigenous #avatar 2009 #atwow
