      abstract = {In this provocative analysis of historical narrative,  Michel-Rolph Trouillot demonstrates how power operates,  often invisibly, at all stages in the making of history to  silence certain voices. From the West's failure to  acknowledge the Haitian Revolution, the most successful  slave revolt in history, to the continued debate over  denials of the Holocaust, and the meaning of Columbus's  arrival in the Americas, Trouillot shows us that history is  not simply the recording of facts and events, but a process  of actively enforced silences, some unconscious, others  quite deliberate.},
