Cyrille Bissette
Cyrille Bissette or in English also Cyril Bissette (1795–1858) was a free person of color (''homme de couleur'') from Martinique who was a radical abolitionist.〔Shirley Elizabeth Thompson, ''Exiles at Home: The Struggle to Become American in Creole New Orleans'' (Harvard University Press, 2009), p. 153; Carolyn Vellenga Berman, ''Creole Crossings: Domestic Fiction and the Reform of Colonial Slavery'' (Cornell University Press, 2006), p. 111.〕 He served in the French National Assembly from 1848 to 1851.
==Life==
Bissette was born July 9, 1795 in Fort Royal (now Fort-de-France), Martinique. In the racial categorization of the time, he was considered a mulatto.〔Robin Blackburn, ''The Overthrow of Colonial Slavery, 1776–1848'' (Verso, 1988), p. 492.〕 He was said to be related to Josephine, the wife of Napoleon I.〔Thompson, ''Exiles at Home,'' p. 153.〕 Sources vary on the exact family relationship: he may have been the child of an illegitimate son of Joseph Tascher de la Pagerie, Josephine's father,〔''Sugar and Slavery, Family and Race: The Letters and Diary of Pierre Dessalles, Planter in Martinique, 1808-1856'' (Johns Hopkins University Press, 1996), p. 52.〕 or his mother may have been the illegitimate daughter of a member of the Tacherie family.〔Sara E. Johnson, ''The Fear of French Negroes: Transcolonial Collaboration in the Revolutionary Americas'' (University of California Press, 2012), p. 237, note 8.〕
Bissette was a merchant and a slaveholder early in his career, but became radicalized by his own arrest and sentencing for rights advocacy, a controversy that became known as ''l'affaire Bissette''.〔Johnson, ''The Fear of French Negroes,'' pp. 162–163.〕
Bissette died in Paris January 22, 1858.
