Model, actor and director, Abigail Whitney hopes to visit the beautiful island Craig speaks of one day. As a child, she says her only reference to Haiti was her mother who was born there. Like Craig, she also grew up feeling alienated from her culture. She attended a French Catholic school and it was often assumed she was Congolese because of her features, mother tongue and darker skin tone.

Like most kids, Whitney went along with the crowd, but says something changed when she was taught the performance arts by a Haitian teacher during Black History Month.
