Happy Haitian Flag Day! 🇭🇹⁠
In a sea of white attire at Pope Leo XIV’s inaugural Mass in St. Peter’s Square, one individual stood out to us: a man draped in the #Haitian flag, seated proudly in the middle of the congregation. His bold and beautiful display of national pride was a striking reminder of Haiti’s enduring spirit and undeniable presence on the global stage.⁠
⁠
The Mass, held on May 18, 2025, marked the official commencement of Pope Leo XIV’s papacy. Born Robert Francis Prevost in Chicago, he is the first American to ascend to the papacy. He recently went viral in the diaspora after the discovery of his Creole and Haitian roots and ties to Port-Au-Prince and Louisiana.⁠
⁠
Approximately 200,000 attendees filled the square, including world leaders such as U.S. Vice President JD Vance, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. During his homily, Pope Leo XIV emphasized themes of unity and peace, calling on the 1.4 billion Catholics around the world to embrace a missionary spirit and work together in healing and reconciliation.⁠
⁠
The image of the man wearing the #Haitian flag on Haitian Flag Day is a testament to the strength, resilience, and visibility of the Haitian people, reminding us all that Haiti is everywhere.⁠

#LunionSuiteExcellence 🇭🇹 ⁠
For Whenda “Wanda” Tima, founder of our pioneering Haitian-American platform L’union Suite, Haitian Flag Day is not only a symbol of national pride but also a powerful personal milestone.⁠
⁠
On this day in 2021, the City of North Miami Beach officially proclaimed it “Whenda Tima Day,” recognizing her dedication to amplifying #Haitian stories, voices, and culture. The moment was a full-circle celebration of her tireless commitment to the Haitian community across the globe.⁠
⁠
“It’s incredibly meaningful to celebrate Haitian Flag Day knowing that my efforts for our community were recognized and appreciated on such a historic day,” Tima shared. “I’m forever grateful for the last 13 years, waking up excited every day to do what I love and feeling the love in return.”⁠
⁠
The honors didn’t stop there. In 2024, Miami-Dade County followed suit, declaring April 4th as Whenda Tima Day countywide, expanding the recognition of her influence throughout South Florida and beyond.⁠
⁠
Through L’union Suite, founded in 2011, @Mrswanda has spent over a decade building one of the most trusted and impactful media platforms representing Haitian culture, excellence, and achievement. Her work continues to inspire, inform, and unite Haitians everywhere.⁠
⁠
As she celebrates both Haitian Flag Day and her officially proclaimed days in North Miami Beach and Miami-Dade County, Tima extends her heartfelt thanks: ⁠
⁠
“Happy Haitian Flag Day and Whenda Tima Day! Thank you to the City of North Miami Beach, Miami-Dade County, my amazing @Lunionsuite team, family, friends, and all of our supporters. Mèsi anpil for believing in this mission.” ⁠

The Haitian National Anthem, ⁠
"La Dessalinienne," in honor of Haitian Flag Day 🇭🇹 ⁠
🎷@Emmanuelgarilus⁠
⁠
Written in 1903 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Haiti’s independence, "La Dessalinienne" pays tribute to Jean-Jacques Dessalines, the nation's founding father. The anthem powerfully reflects Haitian resilience, pride, and unity, values deeply rooted in our culture.⁠
⁠
As we celebrate the 222nd anniversary of the Haitian Flag on May 18th, we honor the bravery of our ancestors and the spirit of a nation that declared itself free against all odds.⁠
⁠
Haiti is for you, for me, and for all of us. ⁠
Together, we can shape its future. 🇭🇹✊🏾⁠

Happy Haitian Flag Day! 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹

Happy Haitian Flag Day! 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
Today, May 18, 2025, marks the 222nd anniversary of the Haitian Flag, a symbol not just of freedom but also of unyielding spirit and collective strength.
L’Union fait la Force “With Unity, There is Strength.”
This is more than a motto; it is the heartbeat of our nation.
In May 1803, at the Congress of Arcahaie, diverse leaders from formerly enslaved heroes like Jean-Jacques Dessalines to free men of color like Alexandre Pétion united to forge a path to liberation. Their courage toppled the chains of oppression, igniting the only successful slave revolution in history and birthing the world’s first Black republic.
Dessalines’ bold act of tearing the white from the French flag was a declaration: the days of colonization and division were over. Catherine Flon’s hands sewed together the red and blue, binding a people’s hope, resilience, and promise into a single banner.
On January 1, 1804, Haiti rose as a beacon of freedom and self-determination in a world that did not believe it possible.
Today, as we raise the flag high, we do more than remember history. We embrace a future that belongs to all of us, to you, to me, to every Haitian at home and across the diaspora. Haiti is a living, breathing testament to what unity, perseverance, and love can accomplish.
This country is our shared legacy, our shared responsibility, and our shared hope. Together, through our faith, courage, and unwavering commitment, we will reshape Haiti not as a distant dream but a thriving reality.
Haiti’s future has to be bright because it belongs to all of us.

A dramatic scene unfolded on the evening of May 17

A dramatic scene unfolded on the evening of May 17, when the #Cuauhtémoc, a towering #Mexican Navy training vessel, collided with the Brooklyn Bridge, sending panic through onlookers and leaving 19 people injured, four of them critically.⁠
⁠
The incident occurred around 8:30 p.m. as the 297-foot ship was sailing out of #NewYork Harbor on its way to Iceland. With 277 crew members onboard, mostly cadets, the ship reportedly lost power while attempting to navigate under the bridge. Carried by strong currents, the vessel drifted into the iconic structure, and its three massive masts, each over 140 feet tall, began snapping against the bridge’s underdeck, which has a maximum clearance of just 135 feet.⁠
⁠
According to officials, two sailors were stationed atop one of the masts during the impact. Harrowing footage and eyewitness accounts described the mast striking the bridge and collapsing in slow motion, sending people tumbling and sparking fear among those watching from nearby Brooklyn Bridge Park.⁠
⁠
Moments later, #NYPD harbor and #SCUBA teams arrived on scene, guiding the damaged ship toward the #Manhattan Bridge for emergency response and rescue. Officials confirmed no one fell into the water and that the Brooklyn Bridge remained structurally sound, reopening shortly after securing the vessel. The Cuauhtémoc, a goodwill ambassador ship that had docked in New York since May 13 for public tours, was scheduled to visit 22 ports in 15 countries throughout a 254-day training voyage. The Mexican Navy has investigated the collision, calling it a result of a failed “sailing maneuver.”⁠
⁠
The chilling event has raised concerns about maritime safety and navigational procedures in high-traffic areas like New York Harbor. ⁠
