Samuel Haynes (1899 - 1971) was a Belizean soldier, activist and poet best known for writing the national anthem of Belize, Land of the Free.

Life and career

He was a leader of the 1919 riot by Belizean soldiers who had fought in the First World War and refused to accept racial discrimination back home.

In 1929, he composed the words of a poem named "Land of the Gods". In 1930 with the assistance of Selvyn Young, “Land of the Gods,” was composed into a musical arrangement, first used in 10th of September celebrations before becoming Belize's national anthem, "Land of the Free".[1][2]

Also, prominent in the Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association, Haynes was once the President of the Pittsburgh Division, editor/writer for the Negro World[3] and for a brief period the Official American Representative for the UNIA-ACL 1929 under the Honorable Marcus Garvey.[4]

Parti de l'Ormée

L’Ormée est un mouvement populaire qui se dote d’un projet municipal et politique dans la dernière période de la Fronde à Bordeaux, de 1651 à 1653. Il s'appelle ainsi car ses partisans se réunissent dans un lieu planté d'ormes. Il s'allie un temps au prince de Condé, lorsque celui-ci, réfugié dans son gouvernement de Guyenne en 1651, s'allie à l'Espagne. Profitant de la confusion qui règne dans la ville, l'Ormée s'empare de l'Hôtel de ville le 23 juin 1653. Les principaux ch...
