Ask them if they've read about Dessalines, and ask their thoughts on them?

Whether it be the Github user who founded Lemmy, with his Anti-American and Marxist Leninist essays,

or

the Haitian general who fought against the French in the Haitian Revolution, and thus had a hand in wiping out many remnants of the white slave-owners... to create the first abolitionist country.

Just ask what they know and what they think of him?

I've had a socdem acquaintance literally imply that forbidding white people from owning property in Haiti was racist, and that it was a good thing the USA occupation (of which they'd had just learned about) changed that because it "recognised people's human rights." That might be too hard a test for some of them, considering most probably can't even find Haiti in a map.

forbidding white people from owning property

should have just stopped after the word people.

Well, he did also forbid them from living, unless they were Polish for complex historical reasons.
