My Summary:

Columbus landed and later built the first Spanish colony there on December 5, 1492.

Jean-Jacques Dessalines led the revolt and proclaimed independence from France on January 1, 1804.

The satanic pact allegedly took place at Bois-Caiman on August 14, 1791, during a meeting of slave leaders led by Dutty Bookman.

In Ripe Now (2003) author Frantz Lacombe writes of the "dependence mentality" on the leadership of the Haitian church.

In Written In Blood: The Story of the Haitian People 1492-1971 (1978), authors Robert and Nancy Henri examined the historical record of the Bois-Caiman meeting and found no evidence of a pact with the devil.  They conclude that Bookman sought the help of God, not Satan.  They include the following synthesis of Bookman's prayer arranged from many oral traditions:

"Good Lord who hath made the sun that shines upon us, that riseth from the sea, who maketh the storm to roar; and governeth the thunders, The Lord is hidden in the heavens, and there He watcheth over us. The Lord seeth what the blancs have done. Their god commandeth crimes, ours giveth blessings upon us. The Good Lord hath ordained vengeance. He will give strength to our arms and courage to our hearts. He shall sustain us. Cast down the image of the god of the blancs, because he maketh the tears to flow from our eyes. Hearken unto Liberty that speaketh now in all your hearts." – Dutty Bookman, August 14, 1791.
