The crucifixion of Nana Charlemagne Peralte:
Jean-baptiste conze, a Haitian collaborator with foreign troops in Haiti in 1919, arranged to meet Nana Charlemagne Peralte, a Caco leader resisting the U.S. occupation, in a camp outside of Grande Riviere Du Nord.
Conze had promised Nana Peralte he would come to the camp to discuss joining forces. Conze was known to have killed a few u.s. soldiers. Unbeknownst to Nana Peralte, those attacks had been staged in order to give conze legitimacy with the Cacos. After getting the password to Peralte’s camp through this subterfuge, Conze infiltrated Peralte’s camp with white soldiers – herman hanneken and william button – who had painted their faces black. Conze then pointed Nana Charlemagne Peralte out for the u.s. soldiers to assassinate.
