SANTIAGO, Dominican Republic – A Haitian man of 19 years was beaten and hung in the public square of Ercilia Pepin, near the Marìa José Cabral and Baez hospital in Santiago where he shined shoes. It is being described as a hate crime where no motive except that the man was Haitian. Demonstrations that included the burning of the Haitian flag did ensue.
Dominican law enforcement retrieved the body which had welts and hands and feet bound. The victim was identified as “Tulile” and some who were familiar with him said that he shined shoes at the hospital. The Martelly regime has not said or done anything following national and international news reports about the crime.
Dominican organizations “El Ciruelito” burned the Haitian flag in demonstrations through the day. They say they are in rebellion against the passivity of the Dominican government that allows for the “invasion of aliens”.
Members of these organizations met at the Avenue La Piña and demonstrated a very provocative attitude toward illegal Haitians. They confirm want to keep their struggle throughout the month of the feast of the country.

Nos dirigeants sont tous des chiens .miseres de nos compatriots en dominicanie ne sont pas leur problems, puisqu’ils n’ont pas de profit… Leurs objectifs sont corruption kidnappings and reduire la caisse duTresor public … Et cela be va pas m’attriste ;pourquoi nous avons un people grangou; qui ne quoi pas aux valeurs… ….. ….. Vive Duvalier… Pere….
That’s what happens when a country is invaded by economic migrants at the expense of the indigenous population. Well, in the less civilised nations.
Wonder how Europe would be if they reacted in the same way? I doubt there’d be a camp at Calais with thousands and thousands of human leeches. Holler.
ALL IS A LIE !!!! the shoeshine guy had won a lottery ticket, his other haitian colleagues kill him to get the ticket and then hung him. Tha crime was one year ago and the haitians who did it are in jail right now…ONE YEAR AGO, AND MADE BY HAITIANS IN DOMINICAN SOIL !!!! STOP POSTING LIES !!!!!
DOMINICAN REPUBLIC HASNT DEPORTED YET ONE SINGLE HAITIAN !!!!
DOMINICAN REPUBLIC IS GIVING RESIDENCY TO 350,000 HAITIANS. DOMINICAN REPUBLIC FITS 193 TIMES IN US SOIL… IN ORDER TO MAKE WHAT WE DO, THE USA WOULD HAVE TO ACCEPT 67.5 MILLION INMIGRANTS !!!!!!!!
WE ARE A POOR COUNTRY, GIVING TO ANOTHER POOR COUNTRY…
Im appalled bt this hideous display.Fir we’re all aliens frm some place or another. Whether born here or not. No ones lynching the ones coming over the boarder, Cargo or air. This is a democracy Haitian is just has human as the rest that breathe the same air. Lord if these critical x’s we’re living n.
This crime was first reported on February 11. This video from March 13, shows Police statement about this case: http://www.cachicha.com/2015/03/policia-dominicana-y-haitiana-presentan-hipotesis-de-la-muerte-del-haitiano-ahorcado-en-santiago-video/
Everybody have opinions like everybody have assholes and still do nothing but recycling word!!!!!!!!
Thank you for education ing this dummy.
Reblogged this on International Law Matters.
The correct word is hanged
Oh come on people! This was back in February. 4 people were arrested, including 2 of the victim’s friend that were also Haitians. Nothing to do with hate crime. Apparently some fight over lottery tickets.
Do some research first and don’t believe at first everything that is published on the web.
Terrible crime, though. May God bring His eternal justice to the perpetrators
We should do the same with de Dominican here in Puerto Rico, to se if they like.

So, digging a little bit more on this story: two Haitian men, aided by the victim of this news, stole about 2,000 pesos (less than $50 dollars) from an old lady. Then, they murdered “Tulile” and proceeded to hang him. Another victim is presumably dead but I could not find out if the authorities were able to locate the body.
The 2 criminals confessed to their crime and said the killed Tulile because he was going to tell on them.

You racist uneducated idiot! What do you know about African history other than what white teach, preach, say, write or taught you? Who colonized Africa? Who partitioned Africa? What countries did slave labor build? Did Africans build ships to transport human beings? Did African explorers visit European shores looking to steal people, minerals, artifacts, etc? When did apartheid end? Have you ever stepped foot in Africa? Have you ever heard African history from an African professor? NO! Thinking you know something because you learned in high school Africans are responsible for American slave trade. Please write your book you uneducated provincial idiot! Next you’ll be preaching that Jews are responsible for the holocaust! I feel sorry for your kids, you closet racist. BTW Dominicans are black.
THIS IS DISGUSTING!!!! #DISGUSTING!!!! 🙁 #JESUSisWATCHING #GODisWATCHING

Hahahahha first, he was killed and hung by 6 other haitians who were all involved in a robbery to an old lady who they helped moving a couple days prior… get some info.
Nonsense. Haitians have destroyed their side of the island and now, the most convenient thing to do is: over run the Dominican Republic.
What was done to the Haitian was wrong, no one should be able to take anyone else’s life be it that you hate his/her skin colour, accent, behaviour etc. It is plain wrong. You didn’t give the person life so you shouldn’t claim that persons life, period. I do not care what people say or argue the incident to be but we all know we can’t breathe the “breath of life” into anyone and make him/her a living soul so we shouldn’t take a life either. All these arguments between African descents and Caucasians do not make any sense because we all know the origin of life was somewhere in Africa, therefore we ALL are descents of Africa despite your damn skin colour. Eish! Some things do not make a mountain out of a molehill yet somehow people find ways to make molehills mountains and others are quick to point fingers at others forgetting we all live under the same sun! How do we forget the most important thing, “do unto thy neighbour what you want done unto you”, basically love thy neighbour as you love thyself! I wonder and pity those who love to bash and create somethings out of nothings, especially the irrelevant ones.
these Dominican people are a bunch of hateful bastards. Don’t they know that Haitians are part of them? Study the history you hateful people and recognize that they are humans just like you!!! You people come to America with no shoes and as soon as you put a pair of Jordan’s on you think that you’re London somewhere. Stop the hate and study your history. Haitians are defendants of the slaves that came via the Portugal slave trade just like you!!! What a shame!!! Abusadores que son!!!
I do not understand the mindset of the people in the Dominican Republic the majority of them have African slave ancestors.
Just stupid! http://old.antislavery.org/breakingthesilence/slave_routes/slave_routes_dominicanrepublic.shtml
Now mention the times that Haitian people have burnt Dominican flag. They are not rule on both sides, there are groups that don’t represent the feeling of any of both countries, on the other hand, it was determined that who killed this man were also Haitian.
One Island two countries ,but both are of African ancestry . But it’s no different then here in the US were young black men /women are killing each other everyday.
Ok well if that’s the case then people who are not American born should not be allowed to cross the U.S. state line. A Dominican would want to arrive in America by water for freedom and a better life, but reject a human being that literally crossed into their country line to make a living. Makes no sense to be so hateful and so unfair at the same time.
That’s exactly how I feel. People need to understand that this is not the first video floating the internet about Hate crimes in DM against Haitians… It’s cruel and no one (any race) needs to be treated this way! Dominicans are all over even in P.R. And no one do this to them. Obviously this man was a working man trying to make a living just like anyone else. People want to make excuses that why this is happening… Over a flag, but excuse me; the last time I checked the American flag like many others have been burned and dragged on the ground and no one is hanging anyone… Those People that loves to make excuses for hate crimes are the same people that would commit the same crime over pettiness!
I always wanted to go and visit DR cancell that feeling may god have mercy on that island ✌
Wow they dont want aliens in there country well gow bout when they take a bout and come to my Puerto Rico do you think we should do that to them to when they land on our land of puerto rico
Puerto Rico isn’t even yours, it’s AMERICAN soil! Get your own currency then claim your land… But before you do, get informed on the situation before you talk that shit! When Dominicans get on a boat and go to Puerto Rico and get caught, Customs and Border Patrol make them serve sentences and then deport them. Dumbass!! By the way, I am a U.S. citizen!
Lo que no queremos es que sean inmigrantes ilegales en el pais… se les dio la oportunidad de que esten de forma legal en el pais y no hicieron nada, creo que en Puerto Rico nunca se ah echo algo parecido, SOY DOMINICANO y cualquier persona que esta ilegal en un pais esta rompiendo la ley, si tiene inmigrantes ilegales en tu pais ya sea dominicano estas en todo el derecho de deportarlo si no quiere regularizar su situacion.
THE GAME IS ON, LETS SPREAD THE BOYCOT, TOURISM AND ALL.LET THEM FEEL THE PUNCH.
Here’s another example of an ignorant dumbass posting shit on the net…
https://www.facebook.com/ramongarcia99/videos/vb.1634091013/10205988212817773/?type=3&theater
DIRTY LIES. This man was killed by two Haitians that stole a wining lottery ticket from the victim.. The DR spends 57 million dollars on providing free healthcare for Haitians. At the moment you post this dirty lie against the DR, there are doctors, nurses trying to safe Haitians lives and providing free healthcare to pregnant Haitians women that are living illegally or that just cross the border to get the care that their own government doesn’t provide for them.
I meant to say that these Dominicans come here bare footed and as soon as they put on a pair of Jordan’s they think that they’re from London some where. And also, Haitians are a part of the Dominican people. They are all decendants from the slaves that came there via the Portugal slave trade! Uneducated people!!!
Yeah right! Dominican people have been abusing Haitians for many years now. Maybe if they hang a Dominican then thing will change! War against these uneducated hateful bastards!!!! Ps: I am Puerto Rican!!!
It’s okay! Yall just gotta wait for the comeback… karma is a bitch.
Karma always come back, remember the 2010 earthquake? The DR the only thing they do is help the Haitian more than anybody else. And what do the DR gets from Haiti? This negative campaign with dirty lies and manipulated images to discredit the only country that help them.
Please, stop trying to incriminate DR on this. Yes, it was a sad thing for this to happen, it should never happen. But when you put this like trying to say that this is what happens in Dominican Republic every day to haitians, like Dominicans go around killing them just because a “racist matter”? OH PLEASE! Stop believing whatever you see on the media and assuming it is real. And you know what? Yes, in DR we have racist people. In USA they have “white supremacy”. In Haiti they have a bunch of racist “Elite Political Population” that IS NOT interested on their haitian brothers. Im sorry all this is happening but let me tell you one thing, every day haitian people walk freely on DR, they work, have fun, grow families as anyone else and they are not being persecuted because they are black. So please stop the lies.
Reblogged this on A Quarter To Eight Equals.
PRAYING FOR THIS YOUNG MANS FAMILY.. MAY GOD GIVE THEM PEACE. AND HEALING .IN THIS TIME OF NEED..IT DOESN’T MATTER WHERE YOUR FROM.. OR WHAT YOU ARE…ITS WHOSE YOU ARE… WE WERE CREATED IN GOD’S IMAGE…AND MUST STOP THIS VIOLENCE NONSENSE…THIS DEMONSTRATES THE WORK OF THE ENEMY WHO COMES TO STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY!! I BIND HIM UP IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!!! LORD,… HAVE YOUR WAY..
This is a lie. Before reposting the nonsense that goes viral on the internet, research responsibly. This happened in February. It was determined soon after by both Dominican and Haitian authorities that this man was robbed and hanged by two Haitian men.
I will NEVER understand why someone would want to spend their only existence in this flesh,hating a fellow human,walking in the flesh. The world needs love,not hate. Hate sells,but ONLY as long as people are buying it. Stop buying it!
These Dominican are so cruel but you know what there a god above and he sees all,one thing for sure god don’t favor people based on the color of there skin he created us all with his image..the last time I check you being light skin does not make you any better then haitian or those it make u white!!! So these Dominican need take that nonsense out of there minds !!!!
Im blown away and discusted to even consider the people who did this to even be of the human race god shall make them suffer
Puetro ricans should start hanging dominicans the same way they are doing to the hatains. Alls fair when u do to others as u want done to you. Fuck the ingorance that surrounds the dominican mentality. They just upset the hatians are willing to work harder then they ever will.
It’s “hanged”.

First off, I am not here to attack anyone’s opinion. The hatian revolution was started by this man https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toussaint_Louverture
Of whom my entire bloodline are direct descendents of.
I am a just as much dominican as I am Haitian so I feel I can say this. The problem with Dominicans are that they have this attitude of superiority over Haitians and quickly forgot the alliances of centuries ago. Pride and ignorance is the driving force behind all of this! The problem with not knowing your history is that you are doomed to repeat it. That island is very quickly regressing to the same place they were 2 centuries ago. I don’t know who made the comment of Trujillo but you are absolutely right. And it seems that this history is doomed to repeat itself.
Also I would like to point out that Africans did not invent slavery, the europeans did not invent slavery, the whites did not invent slavery. Slavery goes way way back o the time of the Pharoes in Egypt and the very first liberator of slavery was Moses.
We can all speculate and voice opinions but the bottom line is that we ALL collectively have to educate ourselves in order to teach our children about change so that this world can change for the better!
There are a million and one books out there that we can all read to educate ourselves. I refer to one…. MY BIBLE.
I will keep both countries in prayer, all the people in it in prayer, and all of those reading this in prayer. #prayforthenations
Again, this is not to offend anyone.
Lord Have Mercy! May His Soul Rest In Peace! Amen!
There were some part of west Africa that slavers (black slave owners) sold their own people. It was not uncommon. there were even black slave owners in the US.
We all know the story behind those isolated incidents. Let’s not give them any extra fuel for their bon fire.
Nope, you are offended because O.A.A.U. doesn’t think like you. O.A.A.U. wasn’t mean, just speaking the truth and not everyone likes to hear the harsh truth. Lynn was rude with her all caps and her self-righteous attitude. And there isn’t a nice way to respond to what Lynn stated. Lynn wasn’t nice. And why do people keep making up things. Where did you get the knowledge that Lynn is multi-racial?
African slavery was not chattel slavery. You are Black. Please do better and know your own history instead of repeating what someone else told you. Black people cannot afford to not know their own history, otherwise, someone else will simply teach you what they want you to believe.
Definitely is a hate crime and racist. Hate crime to peope who see Dominicans and Haitians as the same people, and racist to those who see the difference in the two. At this point Dominicans are racist because they refuse to see themselves as Haitian/Black. You guys are here arguing about what is what and calling each other ignorant but not actually talking about how to come up with a plan to save Haitians from this terrorist attacks.
How about haitians eating Dominican children, how about haitians who have been offered and given work only to turn around and kill those who give them work and bury them in there own land…. this racist disease, is a global problem. … two main problems why we see this manifesting in Dominican Republic is because two governments don’t have a clue on how to run a country…. one government apparently don’t give a shit about there people(haiti) and the other just as bad. Dominican Republic has a immigration law that has been more than lenient to most our neighboring country. After the quake Dominican Republic vacated a functional airport to help aid haiti when the quake happened, we gave them refuge, medical attention, work, food, we were the first country to help out and the last country to leave. We built hospital for them, we sent mobile kitchens to feed them, we extended our resources pretty sufficient, but Dominican Republic is a third world country just like haiti, how is that gonna work, two poor countries? … good luck… Dominican Republic has more illegal haitian immigrants then the United states has illegal Dominicans and haitians. Dominican Republic is an independent country, battled haiti multiple times and we won every time and we earned and bled for that independency. Even the US tried to come in set up shop, and we told get them fuck out. Now, DR has to resolve the over population of illegal immigrants because our border authorities let it get out of hand. Dominican Republic gave them 1 yr to get legal and then gave an extension and still couldn’t get it done. And still there giving them time to get things together. Why isnt anybody following other countries on how there handling there deportation issue, they use cages and ship them the fuck out, but haiti wants to bite the hand feeds them. And where’s the almigty US, why haven’t they extended there resources to the extent Dominican Republic has?…. funny, and we’re the bad people. Research what US did to haitians who needed refuge after the quake, one year, that’s it and get out… where’s the out cry?…. I’ll tell you one thing, if haiti thinks DR is gonna sit around and let them do as they please, they gotta nice big fight coming to them…. It’s also funny how haitians still claim the whole island as theirs…. have a nice day
You sound very stupid! There maybe some facts spoken by you, however, all life is precious and until you can highlight a crime committed on a case by case basic, it is fuckin immature, backwards and ludicrous to suggest justifying this treatment of anybody! Your no fuckin than them and they are no fuckin better than you! Evil is what it does and this shit is pure evil! Fuck the politics, this people need help not have as perpetrators with a hidden agenda and some bogus ass superior complex! Social differences can and will be overcomed in time but to insinuate that y’all are doing somebody a favor in their time of need is no need!
What about illegal Dominicans over here in the USA .EVertyhing you said about Haitians can be said about Dominicans in USA . Is that fair. Is it fair to illegal Dominican in U.S.A as criminals welfare recipants drug dealers . I mean not even illegals but children of illegals and the cycle continue of lazy violent criminal minded poor Dominicans that live in the U. S.A. So saying this is it fair for me to look at all illegal Dominicans or legal Dominicans like this .No it is not .Your whole attitude is racist and NARROW minded . LIKE how you people come over here to get a better life I am sure many Haitians come to Dominican republic to get a better live However your putting all Haitians in the same bundle like they are all criminals .. poor ..and lazy.. An you and other Dominicans keep saying stop looking at your country as a horrible place. I wish the world would cut your third country off lose your tourist rights .An figure out things on your own. FUNNY how majority of you Dominicans will or could of be hung in THE U.S.A since the majority of you have mixed or african features or blood . NOT WHITE .
BE AS IT MAY SOCRATES, SO LET ME ASK YOU DOES IT JUSTIFY DOMINICANS KILLING HAITIANS, LIKE THIS POOR YOUNG MAN ONLY 19 YEARS OLD SHINING SHOES FOR A LIVING? I AM HAITIAN AND I LOVE YOUR PEOPLE, IN MY HEART AND MIND I SEE YOU AS MY LONG LOST COUSINS AND EVEN IF YOU DENIED IT HISTORY WILL PUT YOU BACK INTO PLACE. WE CAN NOT DENY OUR HERITAGE WHEN FREEDOM CAME TO HAITI IT CAME FOR ALL OF US, OUR SIDE OF THE ISLAND HAS SEEN ITS SHARE OF DISASTERS MEN MADE AND NATURAL, GOD ONLY KNOWS WHY BUT LET ME ASK YOU, IS THIS HOW YOU TEACH YOUR KIDS TO BE THEIR BROTHERS’ KEEPER? I HAVE DOMINICANS FRIENDS HERE IN US, MY VERY BEST FRIEND IS DOMINICAN NOT HAITIAN ALL THESE GOING ON THERE CAN NOT AND WILL NOT RUIN OUR FRIENDSHIP THOUGH WE ARE FROM HAITI AND SANTO DONIMGO. ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THIS, KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE SEEKING FOR BREAD IS NOT THE ANSWER, IF WORRIED ABOUT HAITIANS TAKING OVER YOUR LAND, PACK THEM UP ON A TRUCK CROSS OVER THE BORDER AND HAND THEM OVER TO THE HAITIAN GOVERNMENT AND LET IT DO HIS WILL WITH THEM PLEASE, DO NOT MURDER THEM OR SHOW THE WORLD WE ARE DOGS EATING DOGS, WE ARE OF THE SAME BLOOD, I PROMISE YOU GO CHECK OUR DNA AND YOU WILL FIND THE COMMON LINK. PEACE BE UNTO YOU MY DEAR, UNTO ME AND MY PEOPLE.
Reality can sometimes be stupid, and many other things. I am not racist, I do not hate haitians or black people or any race for that matter. My closest friends I grew up with for over 30 yrs are haitians, like brothers to me. And I do not condone any actions of this magnitude upon any other human being. When two third world countries are in crisis, of course there will always be an increase in violence, and we end up seeing the worst case of violence or hate crimes, because of history, as we see happening still to this day in america. And as I said previously there are cases against Dominicans just as hateful. Dominican Republic has done all it could and has used and given there resources as much as they could, but DR has to control the migration issue before it gets any worse. I get very defensive when many label us as racist, and that is only the case based on past history, and our people have come along way from that era, but there is always a strain left of those who believe in a supreme skin color. Our people are better than that. And when someone refers to DOMINICANS as terrorist, I’m gonna respond. Both governments have to come together and work together, to fix it, since they both ruined it.
Reblogged this on polliepea.
I support Lynn because she was able to express herself through her life experience and she did this without offending me. Aside from this 19 yr old young man that was murdered by a group of hateful, ignorant individuals, I did not need O.A.A.U reciting some long, tiring wordy essay that lost me completely. He lacks people skills and most certainly loses his integrity whenever he opens his mouth. I would respect his interpretation if he tried again. I want to understand where OAAU is coming from but he missed his mark with this multi-racial woman. Try again, brother and maybe you will have me at hello.
This is fuckin ridiculous! This is genocide and cultural racism that demonstrates how backwards and psychologically poisoned people have allowed themselves to become! I would love to travel there so that I may educate and advocate on behalf of those oppressed and unjustly exterminated! This is modern ethnic cleansing which is a atrocity currently be perpetrated in the Dominican Republic on poor Haitians just struggling to enrich sand better their lives by seeking opportunities to better their lives! You told her very well, spoken like a true PhD! I got your back 1000%! Let’s ride! Sounds like you got a stick up your ass, her statements didn’t offend me either but they were insensitive and totally out of context with the genocide taking place in the Dominican Republic! So for her to personalize and interject her sensitive ass feelings into a modern atrocity is reverse racism and her dumb ass needs a smack down like she got and deserved! So shut the fuck and come again, because I got his back and Homey don’t play that!
Actually, this ignorant woman isn’t multi-touch racial, her kids are. And while you have the nerve to speak on somebody credibility, yours was shot down just by you nor reading Ann’s comprehending that tidbit of information. Your argument is pointless.
Nope, you are offended because O.A.A.U. doesn’t think like you. O.A.A.U. wasn’t mean, just speaking the truth and not everyone likes to hear the harsh truth.

Black slave owners used their slaves for servitude, NOT the inhumane and sick methods by which White counterparts abused, raped, maimed and murdered slaves. Had the Black slaveowners not been tricked into thinking they were sending their servants to their demise, they would not have. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Snzl41lX54
Go ahead and write your book, who will care enough to read it.
you all have no clue how this happened…not to mention the first Africans were sold into slavery by BLACK africans….so please until you know the real truth…have you ever considered this so called “hate ” crime could be between a black and a black …..I am sick of all this “racism” shite….as the mother of mix race kids I fine it all too PC and sometimes HATE is between 2 of the same race culture and colour …in fact more often than not…PLEEEEEZ stop using all this RACE stuff or you will FORCE me tyo write a book about REVERSE racism and you wont like it at all.
1st off, this article isn’t about white people. Everyone following this blog knows that by now. Secondly, I’ve been posting follow ups to this story for weeks. So we know exactly what’s going on.
And lastly, if you actually believe that ridiculous “factoid” about black people and slavery, then you’ve already proven yourself unfit to raise your own “mixed race” child, not to mention the privilege of speaking among actually culturally conscious individuals.
I’m sorry for your obvious subconscious guilt and cultural ignorance but that’s no need to assume that everyone that says racism is talking about Caucasians. But again, as a guilt ridden, xenophobic, Caucasian who’s raising a brown child in a white America, you make my point. You are culturally, morally and historical incapable of teaching your own child how to derive to conclusions without first making sure it doesn’t offend the dominant white society. Raising a Tom.
Your so white not only do you believe that reverse racism exist but your willing to publish a book on it. Not on a socio-economic premise, but simply to alleviate the bombardment of the obvious racist evidence synonymous with white people…..what black man f$#k’d you?!!??
Thank you. i rarely comment on other’s posts – but her’s was so infuriating, i actually signed up for wordpress just to educate her on her racist ignorance. and she is informing young black minds???
Thank you. Maybe you should write a book on farmer tom’s herd of sheep and their “self-justified political views”
Omgosh!!! You little thief!! You stole the thoughts right out my head!!!! Thank you!!! Her ignorance is appalling and disgusting.
I was going to reply, but I couldn’t Have said it better, Peace
First off, stop being a sheep to what you see online. This Haitian was hung by another Haitian over a financial dispute. All this shows is how your blog is full o’ shit. I mean, if you go and post articles without consulting sources, then all you are is IGNORANT! Get your facts straight, it won’t cost much, not doing will cost you your credibility! SHEEP!
This is a blog not a news station. There are thousands of stories daily and my job is to post that which looks relavant to Afrikan people so that they may share the information and check its validity and how it could effect them. Not to look for credibility from people who have to post insults for every little misprint or syntax error (Even though sources are given) but still can’t manage to bring up a decent point for any of the other 1000s of relevant post and issues on this blog. Best solution I can offer. Stop following this fucking account. Then you’ll never have to worry about its credibility again.
You’re right i don’t think this woman needed to be answered she had shown her ignorance, and that’s pitiful
Did you know that slavery is alive and well world-wide, that human trafficking knows no race, color or creed, that some of the things we buy so cheaply are made by slave labor? Just because we don’t see that it exists in our back yard doesn’t mean that it’s not there, but we’re supporting the continuation of slavery just the same every time we purchase products made in places like South America, the central parts of Africa, India and some places in Asia. For more information about the millions of people in slavery worldwide, please see http://fightslaverynow.org/why-fight-there-are-27-million-reasons/labortrafficking/products-of-slave-labor/
A person who robs, rapes or murders another person is committing a hate crime as hate is the absence of love. If everyone was the same color, height and basic build, but their noses were different, people would be judging others by the size of their nose. That’s what all people do no matter what race, color or creed. It’s about time we accepted it, moved away from hate and moved toward love.
Hellllllllo…..Racism also exist amongst other races and cultures! You must think very highly of your “whitness” to assume the article was directed to a white person doing this crime or did you actually READ the article? Pleeeeease educate yourself for your children sake.
Let’s get something strong, Mother of Mixed Kids: yes, some west Africans did sell or barter other west Africans with WHITE EUROPEANS. People all over the world have historically exploited their own for the notion of wealth. But if you did some studying, you will learn that the Atlantic Slave Trade was spearheaded, designed and sustained by white Europeans. The creation of a dehumanizing slavery (that included harsh beatings, hangings, conditioning) was a white European philosophy and idea. So what’s your point there? YOU learn some truth. More important, if you know ANYTHING about the impact of Spanish colonialization on the Dominican Republic you would know most Dominicans don’t consider themselves “black” or “African” (despite their genetic and ancestral lineage and history with slavery). In fact, many Dominicans abhor and detest all things “black”, especially their cousins/neighbors, the Haitians, who they consider black. Look up the Haitian Revolution AND the murderous tactics and racial cleansing of Trujillo. So… it is potentially a HATE CRIME. People like you, mothers of children of African descent, concern me deeply. You walk through this world enamored, attracted or even entertained by all things “black”, but you ignore the ongoing injustices inflicted upon black people. I need to write a book on Whites who refuse to face the truth of racism.
Just her using the words reverse racism is the admittance of her mind set, that racism is whites privileges.
You definitely don’t know what your talking about , all the comments speak lies..it started with arabs in Africa ,Muslims in Europe slaving cause of being none Muslim taxing whoever wasn’t in their religion. Slavery was introduced to white and Spanish explores . Schools educating kids with Muslim literature to poison their minds with lies .
You spund ignorant. Africans had no choice to give up their people with fear of being invaded and killed themselves! African rulers who did not cooperate were beheaded and their entire village captured. Please do adequate research before throwing claims around. Lets not forget the fact that Dominicans have African in their blood AND the fact that Haitians are the reason why they were liberated from slavery. True savage behavior
look in the mirror your the epitome ignorance.
Sorry to tell you there is no such thing as “reverse racism” there is just plain old racism. That point only supports the idea that most racism is inflicted on the black community. In that moment when you are trying to be “open minded” don’t close your eyes so much.
OMG THANK YOU. I’m so siiick of people using this turn-of-phrase. As if only white people can be racist. Racism is terrible and ugly and cuts all ways.
Are you fkn kidding me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! as a mother of mix race kids you should learn African history !!! AFRICANS DID NOT SELL THEIR OWN INTO SLAVERY !! only uneducated people make that stupid statement !!!!! as a mother of mix race kids i am actually sad for your children. Africans sold enemy tribes to the Europeans for goods or money. LIKE ALL FKN NATIONS AT THAT TIME ( WHITE , ARAB , AFRICANS ) . The Europeans tricked the Africans !!! if they knew that 50 million of their own people were going to be treated like shit they would have not traded their enemies. You are literally saying that it’s the Africans fault for being slaves , African fault for being hang, African fault for being burned alive, !! you sound stupid af !!! i never comment on shit like this but man i had enough today!! WE are allowed to use the ” race card” because people like you don’t like talk about what the fkn Europeans did to Africans. and racism still prevails today !! MY OWN ROOMMATE WAS RACIST !!! MY MOM TAKES CARE OF RACIST OLD ASS PEOPLE WHO CALL HER NIGGER , MONKEY , AND SOOO MUCH MORE It makes me sick that there are people like you all over the united states and it makes me even more sick that you have children of mix race. You better go back to school take a couple of African american classes ( Majored in African Americn studies and your stupid comment about writing book about reverse racism please spare me. no one wants to hear your uneducated , fkn words. People like you make me sooo pissed. I wish the best for your mix race children. shitttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt you do know that 9 people were murdered just because they were black. You do know that white supremacist groups rose about 64% when Obama first took office. lmfaoo bihhhhhhh i could say so much but I will spare my knowledge. Go pick up a book learn about racism and slavery please.
Bitch shut the FCK up.
People are always singing that same, lame, untrue tune! Blacks were sold by blacks! Shut the hell up! If that were the case, you can say that Jews were sold by the Jewish people who could pass as French, when Hitler and his Nazi’s committed their heinous genocide?! You are a piece of shit and you do not know anything about what you speak of! You are not capable of writing a book! Oh, I forgot, just as your ancestors did, you will write a jaded lie and force false accusations into the minds of the ignorant! You’re a fool and should be the one hanging from a tree!
You sound ignorant. Africans had no choice to give up their people with fear of being invaded and killed themselves! African rulers who did not cooperate were beheaded and their entire village captured. Please do adequate research before throwing claims around. Lets not forget the fact that Dominicans have African in their blood AND the fact that Haitians are the reason why they were liberated from slavery. True savage behavior
I will like to know your education qualifications in the matter. Since I qualify then I will surrender an expert opinion. The fact of the matter is that a young Haitian illegal (alleged) immigrant was beat and hung in a square. Based on forensic psychology, when such crime has been displayed it’s normally use to send a message. This crime also had many witnesses due to its nature so I doubt this is a “black on black” crime. Even though the entire island is of the west and central African ancestry but that’s another topic. In conclusion, the selling of slaves and how it began is irrelevant at this point and your information is incorrect about the selling of slavery. Please don’t ever write a book I beg of you. Stephen Hawkins said quote: “The greatest enemy of knowledge isn’t ignorance but the illusion of knowledge.” Please don’t spread the illusion of knowledge.
Funny how so many people say that Black Africans did not sell other black Africans into slavery. Of course they did. Black tribes took other blacks as slaves after tribal wars quite commonly. Also funny to hear so many say that slavery was a white European thing. Sure, white Europeans had a major role to play in it but Middle Eastern cultures were in the slave trade for more than a century before the Europeans got into the act. It also isn’t accurate that black tribes sold others blacks into slavery only because they were afraid of getting their villages wiped out. That may have been true later on when slavery became so widespread and there was so much profit to be made. However, for a very long time black tribes sold blacks into slavery simply because there was money/trinkets in it. Slavery has been around for 2,000 years. After prostitution it is probably one of the world’s oldest institutions. It’s largely gone now, time to move on.
Are you fu**ing serious? these dumb fucks doesn’t like their skin color, they hate the fact that they’re dark, so yes, it is a fucking hate crime!! It’s a damn shame, there’s a place for people like that, its called hell. Those coward, yes thats what they are, when they refuse to help Haiti fight, Haiti should have dealt with them, because they once shared the island with Haiti.
You fucking moron is this all you can say is to make yourself feel better by saying Blacks sold black shiitE You Fucking moron you need to fucking read. you history. This a a result o of divide and conquer. They divided us now we hate on another.
You need to learn how to read lol
Did this fool just actually state that the first Africans were sold into slavery by Africans? Is she not aware that the Africans who did the “selling” were also slaves who feared for their lives and the lives of their families if they didn’t obey?
No you need to stop being blind to the truth. But soon enough you will have a change of heart.
Ok k so if a parent seels their child to pedophiles its ok then. And there are letters from slave ship owners complaining that there were no slaves for sale so he would have to kidnap them. And have a look at the film 12 years a slave which tells the TRUE story of a free black man KIDNAPPED BY WHITE MEN AND SOLD INTO SLAVERY.
So if a child is sold to a pedophile does that make pedophilia ok? And there are letters from slave ship owners complaining that there were no black people on sale so they had to kidnap them. Finally, I suggest you watch 12 Years a Slaves which tells the TRUE story of a black man who was kidnapped by WHITE MEN and sold into slavery and you know what? There were no tribes people selling them because the story takes place in America.
This was a hate crime, please do some research lynn lockhart. This isn’t an isolated incident and these problems didnt happened over night its just gotten a hell of a lot worst and it’s SAD…. And you can voice your opinion in a book, a novel, the newspaper because that’s just what it is YOURS. I just had a friend travel to Punta Can an she has a light skinned boyfriend whom they (Dominicans) treated just fine but her, a dark skin young lady was treated so much different to where it was uncomfortable. What would you call that? All of it sickens me! I just don’t understand how people can be so cruel….
You are IGNORANT. Plain and simple. I would bet my life you are WHITE! No one gives a shit about you. People are dying because of the color of their skin. Open your ignorant eyes!
Shuddap.
I feel sorry for your african children….you are ignorant and totally inept when it comes to the needs of African people…and have the ugly nerve to be mad about something said that’s TRUE…PLUS…your brain is so LOCAL. ..you don’t even realize a hate crime can be perpetrated within a race…write your book your ignorant heifer…I’m so utterly sick of “your kind”…I PRAY for your poor children. … that is all..you are DISMISSED.
Let me guess, you’re white. If you are, you will never know what it’s like to be black regardless of the race of your children’s father. There is no such thing as reverse racism. Yes, blacks can be bigots, but in order to be racist you need to be in a position to oppress…..and blacks are not in that position. We do not have the power or control. People who turn a blind eye to racism, or down play it, are part of the problem.
U SOUND STUPID..MAYBE U SHOULD DO RESEARCH ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC B4 U COMMENT ON IT..IT CLEARLY WAS A HATE CRIME AND ITS CLEARLY BC HES HATIAN..THEY HAVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A WHILE NOW..DO UR RESEARCH FOOL
You ignorant POS, this IS RACISM! Maybe your dumb ass does not realize that these issues are NOT just among whites and blacks. As for you having mixed kids, SO WHAT?!! You can still be prejudiced. I will pray for you. Maybe you should also take a look at what is going on in their country then you would have a smidgen of knowledge about this issue!! Lastly it is sad to know that so many lack the compassion to mourn for this young man who obviously worked. Shining shoes is a humble profession. May this 19 year old YOUNG MAN R.I.P!🙏
A group of black Africans hung him up on a tree.
Ignorance is indeed bliss! What grade in high school did you completed? You would have to be insane to think that this horrible act could have been perpetrated by another black person! Racism is real and must be dealt with whenever it rears its ugly head! You are in denial if you believe bigotry went out with the 1960’s!
Sure some tribes did sale, captive rival tribe member.( However they were not the first)
. Most were stolen from their homes. Your ignorance is showing.(real truth)
It’s sad that you refer to your own children as mixed race. There is only one race and it’s the human race. Your children are multicultural, but like I said your ignorance is showing.
no actually blacks are israelites/ shemites and africans are hamites. africans sold israelites. so you need to learn your history first
That’s not recorded anywhere in any other history but the bible my friend. And bible is most definitely not an account for actual history. What you call “blacks” and Afrikans are the same thing. From the same lands and with the same ancestors.
Oh shut the fuck up
“The first Africans were sold into slavery by BLACK africans……….so please until you know the real truth..” Unfortunately you are unaware of the real truth….Africans did not sell other Africans into slavery. Do your research, I don’t know your race…..I guess it’s really not important but you have been grossly mis informed!! You are correct in saying…..”know the real truth” you can start by obtaining a copy of Hidden Colors as well as studying Black History. Happy Learning………
Lady this was pure adulterated racism to see it any other way is folly. Don’t be blind what went on in the 50s is happening now
Girl shut the fuck up.
My dear it is not true that the first Africans were sold into slavery by Africans. Africa never had slaves till white Arabs came into Africa then followed by the Europeans. Africans had servants and never slaves talkless of chattel slaves.
White arabs lol your really stupid
Lol you’d get more respect if you didn’t type like you’re fourteen. Even though your argument is stupid.
you are stupid, troll.
please go out a buy a copy of Strunk and White before you write your next rant, so you’ll at least be grammatically correct?
Who gives a shit about what u write!!! You sound super ignorant and just because you screw someone of a different race doesn’t make you NOT a racist. It makes you horny like the rest of the women Who like it from him. Racism has been going on forever. And YOU brought up racism. Not the Article. It said a hate crime. Maybe he was gay or had a different religion. HATE is not always about racisim. Its about being uneducated. Now whose a racist?? Clown!
Until we deal with the race issue it will continue to rise. You might be tired of it but there are many organizations that hate all races and what to eliminate them. When you feeling sick and tired.
This particular murder is based on race. I’m tired of people making excuses. I hope who ever murdered this innocent young man suffers bad.
You disgusting person. Your anti-black racism is showing. I don’t care what your kids are or who your baby-daddy is, bigot. Write a book? You can’t even strong together a coherent sentence.
Amen.
Firstly reverse racism is a result of racism and thus known to be a racist term. Secondly, Dominicans do not believe they are of the same race because colonialism created this mindset that the closer to white you are it afforded you more privileges. And lastly using race stuff???? This is real and people are dying.
May I ask who told you that? Was it the books in school? Let’s believe the very people who’ll tell you that life as a slave not all that bad. Yes slaves were sold by other Africans, but after they were being forcefully taken. So yes that may semi be correct. But let’s remember who wrote the history books, let’s let that b.s. go please it’s very computer programmed of us to believe an think this way.
Lol.. #KNOWLEDGE is #POWERFUL. . PLEASE, PLEASE GET BETTER EDUCATED! & AS A MOTHER OF “BI-RACIAL” CHILDREN, YOU WOULD WANT TO GET ALL THE KNOWLEDGE YOU POSSIBLY CAN… THE “CORRECT KNOWLEDGE”!! #KNOWLEDGEISPOWERFUL
Much Luv
You racist uneducated idiot! What do you know about African history other than what white teach, preach, say, write or taught you? Who colonized Africa? Who partitioned Africa? What countries did slave labor build? Did Africans build ships to transport human beings? Did African explorers visit European shores looking to steal people, minerals, artifacts, etc? When did apartheid end? Have you ever stepped foot in Africa? Have you ever heard African history from an African professor? NO! Thinking you know something because you learned in high school Africans are responsible for American slave trade. Please write your book you uneducated provincial idiot! Next you’ll be preaching that Jews are responsible for the holocaust! I feel sorry for your kids, you closet racist. BTW Dominicans are black.
If you’re the mother of mixed race kids; i doubt very much that they appear black. Your statements are those of the typical, fair skinned, ignorant racists. In regard to your statement about blacks owning slaves; should we know longer bother going after child abusers and murderers because some parents abuse and kill their own children. According to your logic that’s the way we should think about it. Given the extremely hostile climate that exists against Haitian refugees in the Dominican Republic right now and the demonstration that immediately followed this horrible act of terrorism, I think it’s a safe bet that this was NOT a black on black crime. Some people choose to NEVER see racism and prefer to blame the victims of terrorism rather than the criminals carrying it out. America was full of people like you before the seventies, and Germany was full of people like you during the NAZI regime. You are no doubt the type that would have been labeling Nelson Mandela a terrorist when he resisted apartied in south Africa.
“Reverse racism”? I feel sorry for your Black children. They will be damaged beyond repair unless they complete unlearn everything you are teaching them.
You lady sound dumb. How can you not acknowledge apparent RACISM that going on in D.R.?
I do however feel sorry for your child being of a mixed race because u have no idea on how to educate your child on the everyday situations they will endure because of their ethnicity. I can tell you are a homemaker that married someone black with some wealth and your children are mere casualties due to the greed of your bank account. You have no real love for my culture or care enough to educate yourself on our struggles and slavery to pass on to your children. So get a pen and a piece of paper so I can TEACH YOU the meaning of racism.
Firstly RACISM doesn’t just belong to black and Caucasian races.
It’s ONE RACE/ETHNICITY that hate or feel superior to ANOTHER RACE/ETHNICITY due to the color of the their skin. Ex.
I’m black and I’m spit at, threatened, stalked, beaten and killed because I decided to move in a better community in Columbia. Racism
These ppl are taking very extreme measures to rid of apparent “immigration issues” simply because they don’t want them there. Why are they not allowed to live there? God created this Earth for ALL Mankind to live WHY IS It an issue as to where I reside or who I decide to procreate with. God say man and woman. Not black man to black woman white to white etc.. Ppl are sick to just discriminate and dislike someone else not based on the character but the vessel that protects their souls.
I will pray for u Lady and suggest you gain son knowledge and quickly you have children that may want to have questions answered and I would hope u would want to answer them correctly.
Books get burned too.
You are so ignorant. Obviously it’s people like you that are the problem! And if your going to speak on history speak it correctly! There has been slave since the beginning of times, every culture has housed slaves. I get tired of people blaming black folks and ignoring the real issue at hand. This is a hate crime of discrimination based on skin color. I really feel sorry for your kids to be half black with a Mother like you that has no clue of real African history on the history that was taught in a white school. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!
No no one would like you to write a book about reverse racism because it does not exit. MOST racist usually scream reverse racism I bet your book will not be any longer then a paragraph. SECOND most racist like to say Africans sold each other into slavery please tell the whole story instead of your racist cliff notes . Third there is no way you have mixed kids your lying . UNLESS YOU accident sleep with a non white man on your hoe patrol . I feel sorry for your kids if you are actually a mother of mixed kids because everything that came out your mouth was a narrow minded racist view of someone race .
NO MATTER WHO IT IS PERPETRATING THIS ACT OF HATE, IT IS STILL CALLED A HATE CRIME THOUGH BY SAME COLOR PEOPLE. A HATE CRIME IS DONE BY SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT LIKE ANOTHER RACE FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER. IT IS RATHER SAD THAT DOMINICANS WOULD DO THIS TO HAITIANS WE ARE OF THE SAME ROOTS, IF NOT FOR THE SPANIARDS TAKING ONE SIDE OF THE ISLAND AND THE FRENCH ANOTHER WE WOULD ALL BE ON THE SAME SIDE RIGHT NOW. A LIFE IS LOST, A YOUNG MAN WHO WORKS HARD AT SHINING THE SHOES OF OTHERS DID NOT TAKE ANYONE ELSE’S JOB, FOR NOT MANY WOULD WANT TO LOWER THEMSELVES AT SHINING OTHER PEOPLE’S SHOES SO WHY NOW WOULD SOMEONE WHO SUFFERS SO MUCH IN SOCIETY BE TREATED AND KILLED IN SUCH A WAY. MAY GOD WHO IS THE FATHER OF THE INNOCENT AND THE ORPHAN AVENGE THE DEATH OF THIS INNOCENT SOUL.
First of all… Black Africans selling other Black African proves what here? The only thing it proves is that greed is a powerful motivator. Empires fell and battles were won throughout history because of someone from the “inside”. So saying Black Africans sold other Black African means nothing and is tantamount to saying that the sky is blue. Don’t forget, white people sold other white people in to slavery. So what is your point by saying Black Africans sold other Black Africans?
Reverse racism? Racism is being treated/discriminated/etc solely by the color of your skin. So to add Reverse, or opposite… did you mean to say you were going to write a book about no racism? I sure hope that you did not change the definition of racism to mean discrimination against minorities. Did you? By the way, what was your point by bringing up your kids? Having mixed race kids does not empower you anymore than someone that does not to make statements not supported by facts: it neither qualifies or nullifies your statements. Now, if you were a member of this family, had a family member executed in a questionable manner (resembling racism), knew someone closely who was involved…then that would qualify your statements. Since I doubt that was the case…
I sincerely hope you don’t believe that the media is making up racism. I hope you don’t believe that racism against African/African Americans/Blacks/dark skinned people does not exist (see how I quantified that?). If you do, let me help you out. Yes, racism is still alive today. Now, do I believe that the media fuels the fire for the sake of “Good Television”? Yes I do. But what is the alternative? The media is a necessary evil because when true racism strikes among any race and between any race, we need the media there to help make change. For the record, racism is not only between two different races…. keep that in mind. There are a lot of people who hate their own race, and a lot who think that the only way to love their race is by hating another race. And it’s not enough to just be “politically correct.” People of all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, etc. deserve to be treated with genuine respect and not simply tolerated.
Now for the article… you have the background information of the clash that is happening and a statement “’El Ciruelito’ burned the Haitian flag in demonstrations through the day” and a dead Haitian man. So yes, it does look like a hate crime. They are cowards, bottom line. They live in a society that only exists to them.
I think you should really clarify, because all of the inaccurate fluff in your post got in the way.
I hope they find the people that did this to this young man. I feel so sorry for the family…
Ok, this was a hate crime because the Dominican Republic passed legislation that bands Dominican born Haitians from remaining in that country. The blacks that sold other blacks into slavery were the enemies of the seller. It was a war strategy to get rid of your mortal enemy. Did they know what was going to happen in the hands of their white captors? No, because slavery among the warring tribes of Africa did not include torture, rape, and beatings. They were either killed (the Warriors) or used as household servants but treated kindly (captured women and children) and the elderly were treated with respect as the elderly are revered for their wisdom! So that was a different type of slavery. So because you have mixed race children you think that racism is something that just needs to end? Really??!! Well i have a mixed race grandson and I’m going to teach him to be a proud black man, just like i taught his father! And no, i wasn’t a single mother by choice, my husband had 10 years that he poured into his son before he passed on and left him a legacy of confidence and pride in himself. My grandson is the recipient of that legacy!
How do you know Africans sold their own people into slavery? Were you there? Or I guess you’re going by the incorrect HIStory that was taught in school huh? I guess they sold their own people just like the Native Americans voluntarily gave their land to the Europeans! Just as you said, we dont know how this happened, however we all know that there is a great chance that this was indeed a hate crime considering the war against Hatians in the Dominican Republic and the war against black people all accross the globe. How can the descendants of the enslaved heal when the descendants of the slave owners/masters tell us to get over it and stop making race an issue? It’s like a person losing a close loved one and you telling them to get over it without receiving grief counseling! Makes sense right? So before you write this so called book on this make believe “reverse racism” you all throw out there, do your research first and read true FACTS! Instead of writing a book, you should acknowledge and have a conversation about racism so EVERYONE can heal!
What does anything you said have to do with this 19 year old hanging from a tree. The amount of People of Color, sold by other People of Color. Does not even put a dent in the amount of savage deeds and body shipping Caucasiand have implemenTed against People of Color. Don’t make me have tI tell you that this is also a ‘Lighter’ SkinTone against Darker Skin war. Did you know that. Something that has been happening all over the World. Even in India.
Racism is alive and well, how very cruel and sad.
