		A number of Haitians, 20 perhaps, who had tried to flee the Papa Doc regime, which was making life intolerable on their nearby island, had been abandoned on a desolate, uninhabitable part of the island by boatmen who had promised to take them to Nassau where they hoped to start a new life.
		They had been rounded up and brought by boat to Matthew Town, where they were met by Ton Ton Macoute, the Haitian paramilitary, who marched them into jail to await a boat from Haiti that would take them home.
		Hovering near Ton Ton Macoute was as close as I've ever been to political danger, and contemplating the Haitians' fate was awful.

		He looks up, makes the sign of the inverted cross of the Ton Ton Macoute over his body and forehead with the extended forefinger and index finger of his right hand and goes home to set the coffee boiling.
		It is the language we speak in the darkest jungle, in the harshest town, in the coldest mountain range.
		He had heard the term “Ton Ton Macoute”, but beyond that he had been able to discover little about it.

	THE BLANKET * Index: Current Articles
		Mothers throughout Haiti threaten their children with the legend of Ton Ton Macoute, the malevolent spirit who comes in the night and steals bad children from their beds.
		What these women and their children do not realize is that the danger is very, very real, and it's not just the bad children who are taken.
		And in their hopelessly apolitical way they are willing to serve as the cutting edge: an Irish version of the Ton Ton Macoute determined to protect the venal power structure that sponsors it.

		This second is a warning that the third token, called, I believe, a “Ton Ton Macoute” is on its way to him and he must flee, fly and runaway, for the third will mean his death.
		It is with some impatience that I now seek for a so-called “Ton Ton Macoute” for that will give me the set of three and as marvellous a collection as these tawdry islands are likely to spew forth.
		May the Ton Ton Macoute roam free and wreak its vengeance where vengeance is just.

		Orginally conceived as a Duane Allman solo album, Ton-Ton Macoute has found its way into the hearts of southern rock fans, who recall the hey-day of Capricorn Records.
		Duane, of course, opted instead to focus his energy on the newly formed Allman Brothers Band and the rest, as they say, is history.
		For what it's worth, Ton-Ton Macoute loosely translates to "Uncle backpack" and, in Haitian folklore, this mythical figure haunts children...

	Sacco and Vanzetti - NSwiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The colonial history of Sacco and Vanzetti was marked by the establishment of an underground religious and political movement centred around a creature which was known among the natives as the "Ton Ton Macoute" but was dismissed by outsiders as a mere death cult.
		Perhaps the most infamous parable of Macoutism is La Temps des Passions, which was published by the Shiree Pirate Press.
		The Commonwealth enjoys a diverse racial and cultural mix, mainly due to the number of occupations over the centuries by different colonists who brought their own "under-classes" as either bonded or wage-bonded servants.

		Stax first envisioned Redding and Jenkins as a duo (Otis on vocals, Johnny on guitar), but Jenkins declined, ironically, because he didn't like air travel.Jenkins' guitar work and showmanship also left a lasting impression on a young Jimi Hendrix, who caught his act while visiting relatives in the Macon area.
		It received rave reviews, but Capricorn was shifting it's focus to the suddenly successful Allmans. Jenkins recorded another album in 1975 which was never released and, frustrated by the music business, he returned to Macon to be with his family.
		I Walk on Gilded Splinters, his dark voodoo funk from the afore-mentioned Ton Ton Macoute features the heavy slide guitar from a young Duane Allman, and is his masterpiece.

		Ton-Ton Macoute was originally recorded in 1969-70 and is re-released here with two previously unreleased tracks--"I Don't Want No Woman" and "My Love Will Never Die".
		For what it's worth, Ton-Ton Macoute loosely translates to "Uncle backpack" and, in Haitian folklore, this mythical figure haunts children that do not obey their parents.
		The title seems to set the tone of the CD and fits the dark covers of "Gilded Splinters', "Blind Bats and Swamp Rats" and "Voodoo In You" rather nicely.
