To clear things up:
1. Dominicans DO NOT want to be Puertoricans nor do we hate them. If anything, Dominicans dread giving up their sovereignty to be controlled by a country that thinks so poorly of us.
2. Not all Dominicans are illiterate and ignorant. In fact, if you to go to a private school you'll be more cultured than the average American.
3. Dominicans listen to an amazingly big arrange of music genres, not just Bachata and Merengue. Music taste, just like in any other culture, varies from individual to individual and generalizing this only makes YOU an ignorant.
4. The Dominican community living in Washington Heights DOES NOT represent the Dominican population. Dominican people inhabiting this area usually come from really, really impoverished areas of the Dominican Republic which means they didn't get a proper education just like anyone from a poor neighbourhood anywhere would.
5. Dominicans are not all "ghetto". This fad is only popular in the poorer areas of the country.
6. Dominicans are not "lighter-skinned Haitians". Do some research.
7. The fact that most Dominicans don't speak proper English doesn't mean they're stupid or lazy or ignorant or useless. In case you didn't notice, the Dominican Republic is a Spanish speaking country which was never colonized by an English-speaking country (save from some relatively short American puppet-rulings). It's not like we go around calling people stupid because they don't speak Spanish

I'm Dominican. I've lived in the DR my entire life and generalisations about any culture are pointless, ignorant and offensive.

Get the Dominican mug.Everyone knows everyone. It’s hard to get from class to class because of how small the school is. All of the students there procrastinate on every single thing that can be procrastinated, but get everything done. The definition of Limbo. One of the places where everyone’s low-key scuicidal but not one has the energy or time to do anything about it. The school where all the students dress as monks because god forbid anyone sees their knees. Where girl nerds get humbled, everyone is super smart and kind, and most girls know the secret to Davinci’s code.

Get the dominican hick mug.A beautiful Caribbean island that focuses on nature. It has many features as in the top ten diving sites in the world due to vast undersea volcanoes and an extensive coral reef system. It also has the worlds second largest boiling lake despite its fairly small size. Dominica is the only place in the Caribbean where the native tribe, Caribs, survived the british colonization. It is the home to many black sand beaches as well as white giving greater variety. With 365 rivers this is a site for any eco-tourist.
Tourist: I am interested in the sea, sun, and sand but I want to have something more than that in my Caribbean vacation. I want to hike, see living history, and dive.
Travel Agent: You should go to Dominica. With their new Waitukubuli national trail its sure to be a blast. Its way more interesting that flat Barbados that only has beaches.
