The Deportation Controversy Reveals Discrimination: Racism and Xenophobia in the Dominican Republic" is a compelling exploration of the stark realities faced by Haitian immigrants and Dominicans of Haitian descent in the Dominican Republic. This book delves into the complex and often painful intersection of immigration policy, race, and national identity, exposing the systemic discrimination that has sparked international outrage. Through meticulous research and powerful storytelling, the book uncovers the deeply ingrained prejudices and the controversial government actions that have led to widespread accusations of racism and xenophobia. It shines a light on the struggles of marginalized communities, detailing their experiences of abuse, violence, and exclusion. The book's cover image, contributed by Mr. Steevenson Seraphin, a prominent voice in the Haitian community, captures a disturbing incident where immigration agents mistreated Haitian immigrants, including pregnant women and children, confining them in cages like animals. This powerful visual sets the tone for the book, highlighting the urgent need for global awareness and action. Overview This book provides an in-depth analysis of the Dominican Republic's deportation policies and the broader socio-political context that fuels discrimination against Haitian immigrants. It addresses the historical roots of Dominican-Haitian relations, the role of nationalism in shaping public perception, and the impact of these policies on the lives of those affected. Key Themes: Systemic Racism and Xenophobia: A detailed examination of the discriminatory practices embedded in Dominican society and their impact on Haitian communities. Government Policy and International Response: Analysis of the Dominican government's immigration policies and the subsequent backlash from the international community, including human rights organizations. Personal Narratives: Stories from those who have lived through the persecution, offering a human face to the statistics and policies. Calls for Change: Proposals for addressing the root causes of discrimination and fostering a more inclusive and just society. This book is not just a critique; it is a call to action, urging readers to recognize the humanity in all individuals, regardless of nationality or skin color, and to stand against the forces of hatred and exclusion. Through its pages, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by Haitian immigrants and the urgent need for global solidarity in the fight against racism and xenophobia.

Rachel Afi Quinn investigates how visual media portray Dominican women and how women represent themselves in their own creative endeavors in response to existing stereotypes. Delving into the dynamic realities and uniquely racialized gendered experiences of women in Santo Domingo, Quinn reveals the way racial ambiguity and color hierarchy work to shape experiences of identity and subjectivity in the Dominican Republic. She merges analyses of context and interviews with young Dominican women to offer rare insights into a Caribbean society in which the tourist industry and popular media reward, and rely upon, the ability of Dominican women to transform themselves to perform gender, race, and class. Engaging and astute, Being La Dominicana reveals the little-studied world of today's young Dominican women and what their personal stories and transnational experiences can tell us about the larger neoliberal world.

Combining intellectual and social history, Teresita Martinez-Vergne explores the processes by which people in the Dominican Republic began to hammer out a common sense of purpose and a modern national identity at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. Hoping to build a nation of hardworking, peaceful, voting citizens, the Dominican intelligentsia impressed on the rest of society a discourse of modernity based on secular education, private property, modern agricultural techniques, and an open political process. Black immigrants, bourgeois women, and working-class men and women in the capital city of Santo Domingo and in the booming sugar town of San Pedro de Macoris, however, formed their own surprisingly modern notions of citizenship in daily interactions with city officials. Martinez-Vergne shows just how difficult it was to reconcile the lived realities of people of color, women, and the working poor with elite notions of citizenship, entitlement, and identity. She concludes that the urban setting, rather than defusing the impact of race, class, and gender within a collective sense of belonging, as intellectuals had envisioned, instead contributed to keeping these distinctions intact, thus limiting what could be considered Dominican.

Beyond the Lighthouse looks at a country where extreme poverty exists alongside a booming tourist industry. Where workers from neighbouring Haiti are literally enslaved in an almost bankrupt sugar industry. Where political leaders date back to a dictatorship which ended more than 30 years ago.
