Answer:

The Enlightenment ideas of equality for men and representative government were crucial to the insurrection. One slave in particular was strongly influenced by Enlightenment ideas: Toussaint L'Ouverture, the leader of the revolution. Ultimately, the Enlightenment inspired a successful slave revolt in Haiti.

Hope this helps!
