The link is a review of the documentary "The Price Of Sugar" published in the NYT. Its about the plight of Haitian cane cutters in the Dominican Republic. I have seen the film and highly recommend it as I believe the film will not be shown in the Dominican Republic for obvious reasons......it steps on too many toes. The review speaks for itself.

Through his organizing and relentless pressuring of the plantation owners in the face of death threats, some bateyes in his parish now have improved living and working conditions and have been visited by American doctors.
