Ben Hebblethwaite has created one of the nation’s largest online resources for teaching the Creole language, and educates students on the social and political consequences of language policy in Haiti. This three-year project will create a freely accessible multimedia digital library that uses audiovisual technologies to curate, elucidate and facilitate the advanced search of the rich primary materials of a central Haitian and Haitian-American spiritual tradition in order to promote discovery and educate a broad public.
