via Dady Chery The Dominican Constitutional courts decision comes on the heels of the first national survey of immigrants in the Dominican Republic (ENI02012): a UN-backed census.... The census data looked innocuous enough when they appeared in May 2013.... In fact, the census announced that Haitians numbered 458,233 and represented 87.3 percent of the DR’s immigrant population. It further reported the existence of 209,912 Black Dominicans of Haitian ancestry. Given that these individuals were full Dominican citizens and not asylum seekers, why did the survey treat them as a group distinct from Dominicans? - Dady Chery #Haiti #DominicanRepublic #Hispaniola #DR #Apartheid #Racism #Genocide #TC016813 #Migrant #Laborer #SugarCane #UnitedNations #UN #ONU #Dominican #JulianaDeguisPierre #Repatriation #CESFRONT #ToussaintLouverture #CharlemagnePeralte #Duvalier #CARICOM #ALBA #PetroCaribe #FarRight #Ultranationalist #NeoFascist #HumanRights newsjunkiepost/2013/12/02/dominican-haitian-tensions-wag-the-dog-or-prelude-to-genocide/
