We've all heard Robert and AZb talk about the class of Dominican the majority of the board never gets to see. (Correct me if I'm wrong--I'm sure you will.)
We've heard about the bachata wars and the whores, both men AND women.
Visa-crazy newlyweds, political scum, and mangu lovers. Also, in-love couples, and mangu lovers (I mean, it does taste good.)
So, Who's Who?
I've heard a lot of "I'm this, that, or the other..." from the outsiders...
Talk to me about Dominicans of "high class" or "education" or whatever you care to call it. "Good spanish" might be a starting point. Give me a concrete example...
I am trying to teach my students that there's more to the Spanish-speaking world than the migrant Central American and Texicans that they encounter in our small corner of the world (Maine).
I want to say, "These are people who make a living and live well, because..."
Any takers? Be nice.
