Jean Léopold Dominique (July 30, 1930 - April 3, 2000) was a noted Haïtian journalist who spoke out against successive dictatorships. He was one of the first people in Haïti to broadcast in Kréyòl, the language spoken by most of the populace. He was assassinated on April 3, 2000, a crime for which no one has ever been prosecuted. Dominique’s life was the focus of the Jonathan Demme documentary ‘The Agronomist’.
