Wow, got a big chip on that shoulder. You can think of youirself as whatever you want, just as Halee Berry can be black or white, or bi-racial, multi-racial, or just one very attractive woman.

No, I just don't see how someone who is obviously Brown thinks that they are White. They may not be black, but they sure aren't white. I think that's what people mean when they speak of non-white skinned latinos who consider themselves to be something they are not. And NO Ms. Berry can't all herself White. Ask any white person what color she is, they won't say black but they sure as hell won't say WHITE.
No chip on my shoulder, seems like the folks south of the border have more chips than they can bear.
Is it about colour or about attitude. I have been to a few after hours clubs in various cities across Canada and the USA and most are very selective on whom they sell a " membership" to. I'm sure very attractive dark skinned girls that are dressed in a manner acceptable to management are in like flin.
If your ass is round and firm a la bubble but, then come on down. Dominicans well be very much interested in a firm, round BLACK ass. Please come down.
If it's sagging, sloppy and cellulose ridden, then please stay at home as it would be a health concern for Dominican men.
Thank you-
BTW, the DR population is what AA's like yourself would consider BLACK just that what AA's would consider light skinned blacks back in the states, in the DR they consider themselves INDIO or non-black but Indian.
Black, brown, tan or white, when the lights are off it's all the same, unless green
To open another bar across the street for gays and blacks only. With exactly same drinks. Isn`t it a solution that makes everyone happy?
Just an idea.
Segregation has nothing to do with skin color. In modern Russia all population is white, but it is segregated into a small exclusive group of havs-musters billionaires and a huge crowd of havenots-slaves. They all have the same Constitution but totally different rights, means and powers.
Black or not-black - is not a segregation any longer.
There's no such thing as bi racial. Dominicans have the DNA of African slaves who were brought here by the Spaniards to harvest sugar , tend cattle , and do everything except pick cotton ( wrong kind of soil ). The laws , written by American Slaveholders and those in the business of slavery made it clear who could and could not be sold during this period. The mulatto children, even the children of the white master were sold , even those with white features due tot the law. It was called the " One drop of blood rule ". It was the law in most slave holding states and countries such as the D.R. and Haiti where slavery had existed ( Haiti threw it off with a rebellion )
One Drop rule
Therefore , there is no mixed race , one drop of black blood makes one black. Poet and Author Jean Toomer , grandson of the first Black U.S. Senator but had a white mother and grandmother and appeared white , found this out the hard way when he identified himself as a black man.
Jean Toomer Biography
The Taino died out , there are no " Indio " on the D.R. it's a myth.
No big deal..
People really do need to understand what "black" means in the Dominican Republic. This mainly applies to Haitians. I am Halle Berry's color and am not considered black there. They considered me indio, mulato, moreno claro but never "negro" (black.)
I would assume if someone has money they can get in. I don't even think dark skinned AA's should worry because enough AA's go to the DR so that Dominicans can tell the difference.

It was dark skinned black U.S. embassy employees that were ejected. Obviously not.
Is this posted outside the bar for all to see?
I hope it is because I would have thought that the majority of people are civilised and decent enough to snub the establishment on the basis of these rules.
In that case the owner would be hitting himself in the pocket which in my opinion would be nice. Although hitting him in the face would be nicer still.
