Gizmo., Do you mean "Al Sharpton Jr. Dreadlocks", i have to agree Vacanos.

first of all , Gizmo, i never started the thread. i know that for one as intellectually decrepit as yourself, reading at third grade level is an onerous task, but you can solicit assistance from friends. secondly, i did not say that the majority of dominicans are "of african descent". again, reading is difficult, comprehension even more so. i said that the majority have "african blood in their veins". two different concepts. hard for sub intelligents like you and vacanos, easy for anybody with the IQ of a common ape. as Tupapaupa observes, you two lamebrains are so woefully ignorant, uninformed, and incoherent, arguing with you is like baby sitting an infant. why don't you consider going back to playing with your rattlers, and leave the thinking to the adults?

hey, Gizmo, ever considered taking you own advice?

by the way, superman comics do not count..

People do tend to deny racism from their race against others
but when they feel that other races are being racist to them, then they pull the victim card.
which is not right
but that's how people are.
i think people need to understand that we are all human
and that we should all treat each other equally and it shouldn't matter what race , backround or color they are.

ofcourse there is racism in the Dominican as there is everywhere else in every culture its always prefered to be the lighter of the bunch within the blacks and indians aswell! In dominican theres a certain kind of racism i believe because its ignorant more then others a black Dominican is not called el Negro but more el Moreno. Dominican racism isnt as blunt as in other countrys but is still there. like in Santo Dominigo in Ensache Naco the nightclub La Praia if ur too dark you cant get in??? in Dominican?? out of every country where most of the population is of a darker skin tone. id understand in argentina lol but Dominican! common now. thats ridiculous.

Sientate a esperar la disculpa que nunca llegara.

I didn't interviewed anybody, we were having a conversation/debate and in no way, shape or form did talking to her made me see what I've been seeing for many years.

I have the best "witnesses" I person can have: My eyes, being Dominican, lived in the DR, kept in "touch" with my Dominicanism and I want to think I am smart enough to "know racism whrn I see it".

Do you even know what "generalize" means?. Because I am not talking about all Dominicans, I didn't generalize.

People like you are the ones to blame for Dominicans and the DR getting a bad reputation.

People who much rather say "yo amo a mi pais porque es perfecto" instead of saying "yo amo a mi pais, aunque no sea perfecto".

People who much rather cover the sun with one finger than admit the fact that the DR is not and will never be a perfect country.

Does it makes me less Dominican if I say "I love Dominican people but most are always late?".

Does it makes me less Dominican if I say "most Dominicans are nice but when they tell you 'we will get to our destination in 5 minutes' those 5 minutes turns to 2 hours?".

Does it makes me less Dominican if I say "the DR has alot of beautiful places but there are places I wouldn't set foot on even if my life depended on it?".

People like you, in denial and who paint everything perfect, are the reason many Dominicans risk their lives hopping into a yola in search of "gold covered streets", first in PR then in the US.

How in hell do you think I felt when many years ago a co-worker, not knowing I was Dominican, told me "see that girl over there?, all she talks about is how beautiful and great the Dominican Republic is. Don't believe her. She painted such a perfect picture that I decided to see for myself so we planned a trip over there. She took me to her neighborhood and guess what, I have never seeing so many poor people, ugly houses, ugly neigborhoods and so much garbage in my life. After the first day, I didn't leave the resort for one second".

So don't give any any lip that I need to apologize for not saying the DR has faults.

gizmo lol
dreadlock is our own jeremiah wright

here is the deal, yumnuk. i have met numerous african american tourists who have told me that they were on their first visit to the DR, and that they would never return. why? because, they said, of the way they were treated by Dominicans. they observed that the locals fawned over the whites, while treating them like trash. i am not in a position to determine whether or not they were being overly sensitive, or overreacting. but i know for a fact that if i am in a line at the colmado, the owner will seek to put the white customers ahead of me. on one occasion, he even ordered the cashier to cancel my transaction, put my stuff to the side, and attend to the canadian lady who was behind me. in his mind, that is the pecking order. the white lady is first, and you are next. that , my friends, is the definition of racism. when i sit at a table with my white friends for dinner, the waitresses invariably try to hand the bill to one of them, but never to me. reflexively, they believe that they are the ones in the position to pay. it happens all the time. my white friends liked to eat at a certain steakhouse in the capital. the waiters treated them like kings when they went alone. when i went along, they would sit us at the worst table over by the kitchen, even if there was nobody else there. i stopped going to such places with them, just so they would not have to be inconvenienced like that. so, all who try to tell me that the DR does not have serious racial problems that need addressing, you are talking to the wrong guy. i have seen dark skinned Dominicans allow a white person to cut in front of them in a line at the bank, and they allowed it with a smile. i wonder if they would have been that pleasant and permissive had it been a person ten shades darker?
