Savanne-Life of a Lot   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) Savanne, or Savan, the northwestern subdivision of Charlotte Amalie, was established to provide housing for an increasing number of manumitted slaves or "free coloured," as they were called. Since Savanne was one of the most densely populated areas on the island, it attracted the attention of politicians, who stumped the area at election time wooing voters. Blacks of Savanne earned a living in conditions resembling servitude while the Whites of the commercial district flourished financially from the bustling trade of the town and its harbor. www.viaccess.net /~crucian/savanne.htm   (1602 words)

HADASSAH MAGAZINE Those of Joden Savanne helped establish the economic base for what was first a British territory, then a Dutch colony and since 1975, a sovereign nation. In 1685, the Jews at Joden Savanne felt confident enough to erect a second synagogue, a massive structure built with bricks used as ballast on the ships sailing from Europe and was called Bracha v'Shalom. A specialist in trips to Joden Savanne, particularly by boat on which friendly, accommodating staff and superb cuisine counterbalance roughing-it accommodations, is Wild Coast Expeditions (telephone and fax: 597-424-522; E-mail: wildexp@sr.net). www.hadassah.org /news/content/per_hadassah/archive/2000/Jan/travel.htm   (2264 words)

FHI - II. Presentation of Findings (part 6)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) Although there was little direct reference to negative role modeling, a Savanne woman commented that "in the old days they used to say that what mothers do in front of their children, children will do themselves." "Telling children about life" was a strategy proposed by several women for discouraging frivolous behavior. Other sources were radio and television, but as one Savanne woman complained, "the radio tells you a little but not everything." Their greater emphasis on face-to-face communication may be more important to the women than radio or television. However, the "vivavek" women in Savanne were unenthusiastic, saying, for example, "We don't belong to groups" and "The sister who gives us condoms tells us how to avoid disease," probably referring to a nurse or health assistant from a clinic. www.fhi.org /en/rh/pubs/booksreports/haitiwom/haitpres6.htm   (4314 words)

FHI - II. Presentation of Findings (part 5)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18) In both Savanne and Delmas, male participants seemed to take for granted a double standard that grants sexual freedom to men and denies women the right to question their partners' activity. Transcripts from Savanne indicated a greater tendency on the part of some men to use force, or at least forceful persuasion, with an unwilling partner. As in their response to women they suspected of infidelity, Savanne men were also more likely to condone or suggest violence in the case of a woman refusing to accept sexual contact. www.fhi.org /en/rh/pubs/booksreports/haitiwom/haitpres5.htm   (5301 words)
