   As I was awaken from my dormant racial sleep, I began to see the world differently.  The
majority of white collar jobs in D.R. were held by the White educated class. The majority of
street vendors (not store front owners), artist (singing or painting), and field workers were of
color.  The Dominicans of Color were treated as the lower class, socially, morally, and
educationally.  

Another strange thing I encountered, was the Black on Black discrimination.  The lighter you
were, the better off you were socially and economically.  They judge themselves not only by
their skin color, but by their hair texture as well.  If you fell in the "pelo malo" (kinky hair) group,
you were of "malo clase" (bad genes).  If you fell into the "pelo bueno" (good hair) your genes
weren't so bad.

I also encountered segregation, not by the government (at least I don't think so) but by the
people.  Blacks lived in the poor neighborhoods (compos), sprinkled by a couple of Whites.  
The Whites lived in the very small middle class or rich neighborhoods, sprinkled by a couple
Blacks. The Mestizo's just blended in; just like I would like to call a hypocritical chameleon.  
One day they are White the next day they were Black.  You see they are neither White or Black.  
They have good hair and have a tad bit of color.

I realized that D.R. socially was no different than Newark.  I realized that in the States I was
"primo" (cousin) or "hermano" (brother), back home (Dominican Republic) I was just that little
"prieto" or "tiguere feo".  I realized that common bond of Hispanics only existed in the States.  
Socially we were united, bonded together by the cause of discrimination.  Behind closed
doors, our prejudices ran rampant in our minds.

I was still bewildered and mentally not satisfied with my new social intellect.  In my demented
mind I thought this couldn't be going on anywhere else.  So I confronted some of my distant
cultural cousins, to see if this occurred in their neck of the woods. To my dismay it wasn't just a
Dominican and American past-time. Every Spanish speaking country had their own
discrimination.  If it wasn't against the Blacks it was against the Mestizo.

Today when I am asked what nationality I belong to; I proudly say Hispanic first and Dominican
second.  Here in the States Hispanics form a tight network, with a strong sense of unity.  Color,
origin and personal prejudices are usually put on hold.  It's a community that I proudly belong
to.  We all have our mental faults, we are not perfect.  This racist mentality has been
embedded in us since birth. Generations of social conditioning can not be changed over night.
 Just like a war is won by many battles, we must keep challenging that mental condition called
racism. The minute that we stop the challenges, is the minute that we lose our pride and
self-esteem.  Not only as a group but most important an individual.

you know that Trujillo guy? da one that evil dictator? well..my grandfather was his right hand man, i actually have pictures of my grandfather

in uniform chillin with da man himself...and for being such such a loyal right hand man in his empire he made him a

Mayor of a town in da Dominican Republic and gave him and my whole bloodline tons upon tons of acres of land all across da island..god bless him he's gonna be 99 years old

this year.so anywho, do you really think i would spend my money on all these sneakers, chains, etc without some sort of hard bank behind it? you must think im one of these garden
