NO more Haitian and dominican topics. If you look at history of this site you will see that some Haitians and dominicans don't get along. Thats not the story for all.

HAITIAN 101 I would otherwise agree with your comments about the reappearance of this topic here, but after realizing that this question is being asked by a young person, who has a concern about what is going on in his/her school between Haitian & Dominican kids, I feel that we should not simply leave this question unanswered.
: This is obviously an issue that is seeking to be resolved. It hasn't dissappear, simply because just the few of us who post here have gotten tired of debating the issue.... Our arguments and harsh comments did not change anything except, perhaps to feed our egos, positive or negatively. But when someone post a plea for suggestions regarding how this situation between Domicans & Haitians is continuing to filter itself into the lives of children ,pepertuating more violence between them on school grounds, then perhaps the issue is worth revisiting. We should force ourselves, that is including myself, to check our egos at the door, and come in cleanly to discuss this issue in more optimistic mindsets. At least for the sake of our children in school here. I'm not expecting that our posts here to be the magic answer, but with luck, something positive may emerge. I hope the poster who re-initiated this topic does return to participate... Based on the way the question reads, I wonder of the origin of this child (young person), if he/she is Haitian or Dominican or American? I understand the tendency here is to quickly invalidate posters whose voices are not in unison, or whose words do not speak at the expected pre-set level. But being that these words resemble those of a child who has come here to post seeking answers...try not lock the doors, or play him/her in a trick. Develishly tempting as it may get, can we also refrain from telling him/her stuff like: "you're not at "my level", and... "don't let the door hit you on your way out"?
"Love's in need of Love today, don't delay , send yours in right away.... Hate, hate's going around breaking many hearts.. Stop it please before it's going too far..."

Sorry, The reason I jumped out like that is because topics like this really get under my skin. I don't really get along with Dominicans and I don't like the idea that we share the same Island, nothing I can do about that.
My problem with them is not only the present but our history together. To the person that started this thread, I am sorry for being ignorant and not even given you a chance. I have to tell you I'm Bias but I'll try to be open minded.
To the starter please tell us what sparks the fights.
To SAJI, THANKS

Thank you for responding in such a spirit Haitian 101: I too, want to ask the starter what sparks these fights in his/her school. Now, let's just hope that I am right about this poster and his/her concern.
Of course Anyone else's comments on this issue or anyone who wants to also share their experiences or is concerned about Haitian & Domincains kids fighting in school are welcome to contribute.

That is the most sensible path for both of us... and I am glad to read that from a young and intelligent person.... Now if we could only figure out how to get our adults to engage their common sense as well.....
Peace

Listen, people me I personally have nothing against Dominicans in general , but I do have problems with the racist ones , and I have confronted many times, but fighting is not going to change a thing unless I could fight my land the Dominican elites took. I went to pay my bills checking place run by some Dominicans , I had no money on me so I decided to cash my paycheck at his place, I gave him my id, he saw my name which is basiclly a French name with ablack face, he knew instanly I was Haitian , he checked my adress , and he said we don't cash checks for people who are not in our systems ,and I said can you add me to it because I need to pay this bill, he said no , only the owner can, another black American was behind who lived in another state had no problems cashing his check.I heard Leonel , the Domonican President said on a radio interview that Haiti was the Dominican Rep's source of aids and Dominicans generally do not have Aids , and the show host even said that is usually associated with Haiti, that wan on Wnyc , the Leonard Lopates's show.If a Dominican Presesident is saying such things, you have to wonder the kind of policies,tones, media coverage, public sentiment and view that Haitians and Haiti get in the Dom.Rep while we import 15% of their exports.That is what must change.

Any of these racists Dominicans with some sense who comes here to post and stummble on what the above guest has said, please try to answer why do your president spew such venoms amongst you, that many of the lowest of you wants to discriminate against evry Haitian person?
2- Why do some of you people lack so much in humanity?
3- Why are you people so hateful?
4- Why are you people the only Black people who aspire so much to Aryan principles and Nazy ideologies against people who you resemble? Did the leftover Nazys ran over DR to hide after the war, and instructed Nazy ideologies to everyone of you?
5- Why do Dominicans deny so much the African blood that runs inside the veins of their black colored bodies?
6- Why do they hate the color of their blcak skins and the nappy texture of their Negro hairs so much?
7- Why do Dominicans want to kill all Haitians?
Where does your hatred stop? Are you so willing to spread it onto your children so they can continue with this hatred in their hearts, while continuing calling themselves believers of humanity and walking into places of worship very casually to call themselves Christians, or protestants, or Catholics?
and Finally, is Christopher Columbus day, still one of the biggest day of celebration in Dominican Republic?
