Prince Saunders
Prince Saunders (1775–1839) was an African-American teacher, scholar, diplomat, and author who was born in either Lebanon, Connecticut or Thetford, Vermont according to various sources. During his life, Saunders helped set up schools for African Americans in Massachusetts and also in Haiti, for Emperor Henri Christophe. During his time in Haiti, Saunders also penned the Haitian Papers, which were a translation of the Haitian laws, with his commentary. Saunders was also a proponent of black emigration to Haiti. Because of his influence in establishing schools for African-Americans, Saunders was one of the most significant black educators in the early 19th century in the United States and Haiti.
==Early life==
In 1784, Saunders was baptized as a Christian, which is the only glimpse we have into his childhood. Saunders grew up in the home of George Oramel Hinckley, a prominent white lawyer in New England.〔Arthur White, “Prince Saunders: An Instance of Social Mobility Among Antebellum New England Black,” The Journal of Negro History 40, no. 4 (1975), 526.〕 Being brought up under Hinckley, Saunders received an education that was equal to many highly educated whites at this time. Many of his studies were based on Bible and Christian teachings, which would be reflected later on in his life.
