Why Do Dominicans wish they were White?

[osas aka haterz killer]

Because they suck so badly that the white people in their country whip black Dominican ass

[BLACK AMERICAN PRINCE]

I agree.

we say we have sp[anish blood its because we do,all you have to do is look at our skin color to tell that,read our history to know that,but you can only understand what it is to not have an identitie..we as dominicans that bled for our independance understand deeplly what it is to be dominican and what it means NOT TO BE HAITIAN.im sorry you can never know what its like to be spanish.just because some of us are black doesent mean we use the one drop rule that your slave masters in the south taught you..remember we killed our slave masters...so take you self ritchious afro-centic behind back to the south before you shit on a country witch such past and honor.

Black Americans are mixed as well, look at Beyonce,Keri Hilson, Ciara, etc. but the difference is that we don't go around bragging about it, we don't really care. Dominicans say they don't see things in black and white but are the first to yell and scream at the top of their lungs how their great-great-great grandfather was a white Spaniard, while Black Americans never even give our white ancestry a thought, because black or white we are still American.
Dominicans are pathetic blacks who wish they were Hispanic/Latino when everyone knows that real latinos are white or white/indian. They are just the slaves of Latinos.

Who cares about Haitians? I did not mention them. We have English and Irish blood as well, all you have to do is read our history or look at us to know that lol but do you hear us calling ourselves English? Of course not that would be pathetic, we have our own identity without having to cling to the identity of our white slave masters, like Dominicans. Dominicans are proud of the fact that their great grandmothers were WHORES and CUM BUCKETS for white Spanish men this is a source of great pride for them.. Despite this most of you like like Africans. Very dark.

[I Cant Stand Al Shatpton]

If Dominicans cant be Latino cus of the Euro/Afro admixture neither can Panamanians, Cubans, Brazilians and a HUGE chunk of the Puerto Rican, Venezuelan & Colombian populations... Typical ignorant ensecure douchebag African AMERICAN

[I Cant Stand Al Shatpton]

HOW DARE YOU throw this trash on my family and HERITAGE , you know nothing about my culture or my people, i love the bright Euro/Afro admixture of my heritage AND PEOPLE. You African Americans swear your hard Sh.. Yet TRUE Africans DISPISE u people

[I Cant Stand Al Shatpton]

I love the black people but African AMERICANS are idiots, and kf were the latino underdogs why is the DR flag featured in most latin videos, parades, why others borrow OUR ingridiants
s & OUT instraments for their music and love our women.

[I Cant Stand Al Shatpton]

Btw... Beyonce, Keri Hilson are all accepted by your community cause you people hate yourselves. Yet we LOVE our black Antony Santos, white Juan Luis Guerra, mulatto AROD. Beyonce is only 16% of your population while shes 70% of ours.

[I Cant Stand Al Shatpton]

Typical Dominican trying to play up their "Euro admixture" even though most of them look like Haitians. If Dominicans are so "Euro admixed" then why do so many of them bleach their skin to be lighter? Real mixed people (like Puerto Ricans or Brazilians) don't have to bleach themselves for light skin. I read somewhere that Dominican Republic has the highest rate of skin bleaching in Latin American, hmm I wonder why, probably because you guys are so dark and want to be light like REAL Latinos.

Face it, most latinos consider you "los negros" and not real Latinos. Even when you come to America most people look at you as black, not Latino because you do not look like REAL latinos, who are light brown to white skinned.

Honey, I am Dominican and all of my family is light skinned, good hair, colored eyes, etc. 89% of Dominicans are MULATTO/WHITE. & yes we do "cling" to our Spanish ancestry because while African Americans might have white in them, they come from AFRICA. If it were not for Spaniards, DOMINICANS WOULD NOT EXIST. Our FOUNDING FATHERS were WHITE, as was our WHOLE COUNTRY until the AFRICAN SLAVES which made up Haiti invaded our country and raped our women, and not to mention destroyed our economy. Our ancestors were not slaves of Spaniards, you are very sadly uninformed.

You are plainly stupid. Latino and white people are all from
African. I am Haitian and study in Dominican Republic, Dominican people are so stupid when it comes to color, they all wanna be white. Even the black ones keep saying " I am not black, i am indian "

wow this is sad and one of the reasons why i don't like latin american culture. we don't have colorism in the aa community. we don't talk about someone being mulatto or this or that. if you're black you black. doesn't matter how mixed you are cuz in america 'black' is a culture and identity. just like domincans represent an ethnic identity.
but latin americans will slice and dice themselves up based on the smallest differences in shade and build a caste around color.

you don't even know this but this is how white latinos control the rest of the non-white latino population. the reason why aa were able to successfully fight jim crow and the other racist laws and policies (that allowed people like you to immigrate to america), is because they never divided. but somehow you perceive unity as 'self-hate'? you are so lost, man. for real.

I don't know a single Dominican who wishes they were white or says they're white. I know some Dominicans that obviously have partial African ancestry say dumb stuff like,'Oh, my ancestors are all Taino and Spanish,'(I just respond well if that were true, then you and the rest of the Dominican Republic would look a lot more like Mexico and other Mestizo majority nations which we all know you don't). But for the most part, Dominicans don't claim to be white or black. They claim mixed ancestry which is accurate for Dominicans in MOST cases. I am an American of Colombian and Dominican ethnicity. I also happen to be of African and (partial) Spanish descent. In America, I am considered Latino/Hispanic because I have origins in spanish speaking Latin American countries. Why can't you people accept that Latinos come in all flavors? Why is that such a hard concept to grasp?
Black people don't brag about being mixed?!??! LMFAO! Please tell me your joking! Everyone knows Black Americans LOVE to brag about their (nonexistent) Indian grandma's, and how they're part this and part that as if claiming mixed ancestry is better than just saying pure black. AA prize light skin, despise pure African features, and you hate being called 'African' or being tied to Africa in any way and I know MANY AA who would confirm what I said. So before you go judging Dominicans, you should really fix your own self hate issues that resides in your own group. Its like calling the kettle black.

[osas aka haterz killer]

I am half nigeria and half dominican but I still call myself african, that what I believe in because my skin looks african. So what the big deal saying you aint african!

I AM A PROUDLY AFRICAN!!!!!!!!!!

[BLACK AMERICAN PRINCE]

Look how the Dominicoons rush to defend their backward culture!

[Someone]

Dear Black American Hater,
You are a f*cking a**hole with no apparent life. You pissed me off right there. I'm f**king hispanic, I don't give a flying f*ck what you say. I DO have light skin, and I'm hispanic. You're just jealous and know that some dominicans have light skin,(not like you, blackass obviously) and decide to diss them so you feel they have dark skin, like you.
F*cking strawman. Go die in a hole.

call a dominican 'black' who's as black as any other black person in the world, and see what happens. hispanic culture conditions people to gravitate toward european standards of beauty. so you'll see all kinds of mostly indian looking mestizos self-identifying as white, and afro-latinos self-identifying as 'indio' or even white when they clearly aren't.
there's some colorism among aa and especially in the south. but everyone understands that they're 'black' and belong to the same race regardless of how light they maybe. people might use 'redbone' or 'yellow bone' to describe someone, but aa don't separate based on color. you want hear a light skinned aa use the 'n'-word towards a darker skinned aa, as though they were white.

and it's like the comment i was responding to 'we got more beyonces than you', said with so much pride. whoa! that felt like fingernails scratching a blackboard reading it. this is exactly what i mean about the conditioned mind of the hispanic. aa don't think like that at all, as we believe in being proud of our aa ancestry. particularly the africans who made up the slave trade - yoruba, igbo, fulani, hausa, ashanti, mandinka. do you even know who these people are?

look up 'afro-asiatic dominion'. your african blood is royalty and literally connected to the priestly lines of abraham!
