The effect of US sterilization on the puertoricans women and the wave of immigration to New york city left a island quasi empty.


The colonial legacy of controlling women's sexuality and reproduction continues to prevail with such policies as the testing of the I.U.D., birth control pills and the sterilization of women. In the case of sterilization, between the 1930s and the 1970s approximately one-third of Puerto Rico's female population of childbearing age had undergone the operation, the highest rate in the world. So common was the practice that the words "sterilization" and "la operacion" (the operation) were used interchangeably. The massive sterilization of Puerto Rican females warrants that their experience be brought to the forefront. THE QUESTION should something similar or more humane be considered for Haiti in cooperation with the natives, and the donor countries, in light of the demographic explosion,the future look bleak, and would affect immediately our neighboor to the east. the Haitian population growth is the most fertile in the world and forcasted to be around 19 millions in year 2023.

When people moan about DR's socio-racial issues it's good to remind them where in the Antilles eugenics actually took place.

As for applying this to Haiti, that would be up to them. Me I believe the day a group slows its reproduction is the day their culture starts dying and becoming weak. It goes against all principles of human nature and evolution to not want to multiply your own kind. Witness Europe, Russia, Japan, all places in demographic decline... they will look very different when we are old men, not likely in a positive way.

China may not be far behind due to their one child policy, however their numbers are on a whole other scale. They are a great example o power in numbers, their ascent is astonishing in the last few decades and it was on the back of one of the largest cohorts/generations that any nation has ever produced.

That might be so, but do you realistically think that Haiti (or the DR for that matter) have the natural resources to withstand their uncontrolled population growth?

No problema Lautaro, they can always come here to DR to have their babies and eat.
We keep welcoming them with open arms.
