    Thanks for this video! I was interested in the history of the Dominican Republic because my biological grandfather is from there and wondered why he came to America. Now I understand it was most likely due to the Civil War in 1965, or perhaps some history just before. Unfortunately, I never met him, as he married my grandmother and had a child with her, my mother, ghosting her afterwards, what I assume, to attain US citizenship.

    Per Alan Klein’s “Dominican Baseball: New Pride, Old Prejudice”..
    Contrary to the common narrative, the prevailing theory is that the Cubans introduced Baseball to the Dominican Republic. It’s documented that Cuban Sugar tycoons brought the sport to the island in the late 1800’s.
    The US presence in the 1900s certainly helped solidify baseball’s dominating popularity in the country. Dominican pride revolved around their triumphs against US occupiers in the diamond. The best ballplayers of that era are still regarded as folk heroes to this day.

    The U.S. is always trying to be that "friend" that has no business in anything... metiche is an understatement.
    We depend on hospitality heavily but it is sad to see how poverty and lack of education is still a major issue in the D.R in this day and political corruption. We have so many resources and yet our people lack basic needs for fresh water, light (light gets cut off at a certain time), food and education. I don't get it. Now with this pandemic thing. Kids have to attend school from home where for the most part-- most dont even have computers nor internet connection (which I was told by a family member that the President said he would provide these things for free so kids could keep learning from home) and once elected none of that happened. So the one thing that bothers me with all this is... yeah everyone love Dominican Republic for all its resources and beauty but does anyone really care about the people? I love my country and I love the U.S, I just wish there was more constructive way to do things.

    This is why people say it that Dominicans are racist with Haitians it's nothing personal it's just that Dominicans are very patriotic people and to know that one's Haiti was ruling their country and now thousands of patients want to go to the Dominican Republic for jobs

      Who cares. the weak get conquered that is ALL OF Human history. A Dominican cant feel sympathy for the natives, while not feeling guilty for the crime. Since we are As much the Spanish conquistadors as we are the tainos. In fact the average Dominican has more European blood than Native or African, so painting the Spanish as villians is the equivalent of punching yourself in the face.

    The original were unknown? That's that Euro Imperial Racism BS. Who were the original of anywhere? It depends on what year you're looking at. There were full Blood Tainos and are Tainos. We had a Paper Genocide done by the Church. Enriquillo was a Taino Royal who was saved by the church and fought the Spanish for freedom for Ten years making his rebellion the first successful slave revolt in this side of the hemisphere. The DR also has the 1st and oldest University in this is of the Planet and the only country to have the Bible on its flag.
