The U.S. Embassy of the Dominican Republic has issued a travel advisory for for ‘darker skinned U.S. citizens and U.S. citizens of African descent.’

There have been mass deportations of Haitians in the D.R. this month, including 20,000 in a 9 day period, 40,000+ this past month, in addition to 60,000 this year and with 1800 *unaccompanied minors*. That’s 1800 children separated from their families to travel alone to places they have never been to.

The history between the Dominican Republic and Haiti is long and complicated and cannot be explained in one or even 10 posts. I would suggest those who want to know more can begin with President Trujillo - 30 year running President who’s anti-blackness led to the Parsley Massacre leading to the murder of anything from 20,000 to 50,000 Haitians in 1937.

Trujillo encouraged Europeans to move to the DR in an effort to lighten the shades of Dominicans and propaganda of light skinned straight haired Dominicans dominated imagery and perceptions of the country. Whilst yes, in the DR one finds all kinds of skin tones and hair textures, there exists massive movements to separate oneself from being associated with Blackness. A strong denial of lineage and a longing to keep the proximity to Eurocentric beauty standards.

The relations between the countries goes back further than Trujillo and his own self hatred, but as it stands Haiti is still paying the price for its Revolution, taking back control by defeating the Europeans and becoming the First free Black Republic in the West. Going from the richest nation in the Western Hemisphere - isolated, bullied, extorted and plundered into becoming the poorest.

Oh yeah…. Not about race tho. Right?

*It must said that not every person from the DR is racist - there are thousands of Dominicans who are truly proud of their African heritage and celebrate it. An entire country cannot be painted with one brush.*

United States of America President Barack Obama said that failing to prepare for the aftermath of the ousting of Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi was the worst mistake of his presidency. Actually, his biggest mistake was interfering with Libya 🇱🇾 in the first place...Smh

Google "list of insured slaves.”

You’ll find a database of insurance policies taken out by slaveholders on enslaved people. Reports suggest this list makes up only 15% of actual policies of its kind from this era.

It’s wild that they could enslave a person, make money off that person for that person’s lifetime, and then collect when they die.

Not only do they owe us money for our time, the free labor, and trauma, but also the interest and profits made from that money. And one place to start looking is with @newyorklifeaiginsurance and @aetna, each of which is sitting on BILLIONS of dollars and assets.

Who is your insurance with?

The lies wipipo tell: In the Western world, this is considered to be organic food, *food that is not altered by synthetic chemicals.* That, is NOT organic. That is chemical free or very little chemicals...🤡. The true meaning of Organic is "relating to or derived from living matter." I learned this long before i hit my teens. "We are organic, all living things are organic, you all have ALWAYS been eating organic foods." Smh... #thefuckery

The black-footed cat is the deadliest wildcat in the world. Though they weigh only 2 - 6 pounds, they take down more prey in a single night than a leopard does in 6 months.
