Woodring:
This is very interesting, but I would like to hear or see what evidence that you ( or those writing about it) have that Will Smith, Eddy Murphy or Denzel Washington are Haitian descendants.
Not that it is not true or possible, but a little documentation would be nice before these elaborate articles are written with no concrete proof.
Unless the person states that fact or you have common knowledge of the lineage, how does one conclude the fact that they are Haitians.
I find that many celebrities with a French sounding name tend to be assembled among those who are of Haitian origin, whether it is true or not or whether it can be proven or not. Let me know what you think?
The topic is: Denzel Washington, Eddy Murphy, and Will Smith are of Haitian decent?
