The Yardie Skeptics are back at it this Sunday, July 5th at 12:30pm EDT (11:30am Jamaica time) to investigate the recent news in the Dominican Republic of "ethnic cleansing" where Haitians born to Dominican parents have been deported for no other reason but being Haitian. The caricature of the superstitious, backward Haitian has always been a part of the political scapegoating in Dom. Rep., but why has it escalated to the point of an all out Haitian purge? Joining us live in studio will be Celso Perez, the author of "We are Dominican" a recent Human Rights Watch Report on the situation in the Dominican Republic; Serge Bellegarde, Haitian born interpreter/translator and retired Organization of American States (OAS) employee; Marie Hitchens, Haitian born business owner residing in Jamaica; Azolin Jean Baptiste, who has extensive experience working on the Dom. Rep./Haiti relationships; and Alfredo Oguisten, a Haitian-Dominican who has been affected by the denationalization process in the Dominican Republic.
