Haitians or Dominicans,
I have a question.
Does Haiti have any leaders with any kind of backbone to talk to the Dominican Republic? Also, doe the Dominican President aware of all the injustice going on in his Country?
Geez, I wonder if Haiti does not have any pride to talk back to those foreign politicians making all kinds of discriminatory claims against Haiti and its people...
The Dominican Republic once again have bashed Haiti.
Recently in Dominican News a Dominican politician "Federico Antun Batlle" stated that: "El presidente del Partido Reformista Social Cristiano (PRSC), ingeniero, dijo hoy que Haití es el principal problema que tiene la República Dominicana como nación." Meaning or he is saying that Haiti/ Haitians are the ones to blame for the problems they face in DR. Yet, Preval had said nothing back to repudiated this divisive statement.
He does nothing and not even a direct public announcement to address this issue or to even try to engage with DR into some kid of forum talk of any kind.
No wonder why it seems that Haitians do not get any respect around the world, because it is clear that they do not have any representation to stand for them when statements like those make the news and came from especially from the Dominican Republic.
At least other Countries are far away and do not share the same Island with Haiti.
Thus I could understand how feasible it might be to simply ignore them, but DR is right next door to Haiti.

What do you all in here think about that? Your comments.
Haiti should hold them accountable for their divisive slurs of incitements that the Dominican Government and its politicians are creating for the people of both Nation who happens to share this Island together.
Why does Haiti even have a leader if he will not stand up for Haiti? It is a darn shame!
You know what kills me...
Both Dominicans and Haitians are allowing themselves to buy into the false notions and differences that White Europeans have succeeded at implanting in their minds.
What makes a Dominican?
A Dominican is simply a mulatto.
Which means, a mixture of a former African slave and a White European.
The romanticize notion that they want to claim Taino Natives in the equation is simply an illusion to demeaning their African side of ancestry.
By saying White Europeans, that goes for France, Spain, Great Britain and Portugal and many more other countries on the European continent and its region.
The Tainos habited the entire Island of first originally named Ayiti, Quisqueya or Boyo.
There is nowhere that I see it says Hispanola if not until came Christopher Columbus who, as history to tell you,massacred the Taino natives close to extinction by having killed 98% of the race.
Thus any of them whom might have survived to repopulated, by today this blood would have fading and decimated; meaning indeed to a percentage closer to being non-existent of a mixture.
Now the Island was renamed or given a new name, "Hispanola." If Dominicans want to claim anything else that would mention Tainos, basically they are saying they are Ayitianos, Quesqueyans, or Bohioans (Boyo) thus would contradict their hatred for Haitians.
So let us say the whole Island is called Hispanola, thus that would make of the habitants of the Island Hispanolanos, would it not?
Of course yes. Because let us take Israel and Palestine for example.
Can either of them denounce or claim not being both Middle Eastern or Mediterrainians despite their differences? Of Course not. So ask a Dominican what is a Haitian see what the answer going to be.
What is a Haitian?
A Haitian is an Afro-Latino, much like you have Afro-American.
Why? Well the region is called what...
Yes, Latin-America.
The Island is called what...
Oh yeah, Hispanola which before anything else it was called Ayiti, Quisqueya or Bohio (Boyo).
but mostly it is Afro because of the African ancestry and Latino given 1) The region, 2) The language and 3) The linked history, the culture of the Island itself.
However, I know a lot of Dominicans do not like to read to even read or check this link wikipedia.org
There are those languages that constitute one to be latino as it states they are called the languages of Romance.
Not as in Romantic, but as of in Rome because they spoke Latin.
Those language are French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Creole or any dialects derived from any of those above specific strong latin derivatives .
Anyways, the divisive differences that exist between the two nations and their peoples are due to strong past resentments given their History which race has always played a major role in.
The Dominican Republic even after the Haitian two ruling occupation and several attempts after that was ruled by two Haitian Decent Presidents known in their Country's presidential history.
wikipedia.org He was born in Puerto Plata, but farher was Haitian and his mother was from St. Thomas.
He served 3 presidential terms.
Obviously he was assassinated.Uhmm, I wonder why...
? The there was wikipedia.org who was born in Hincha, now Hinche,Haiti.
The first constitutional president of the Dominican Republic the only to have successfully separate the Dominican Republic from Haiti.
