Taino history is dominicaN relublic ..

[@latebloomer177]

But Puerto Ricans that have more Taino blood in them than Dominicans, this is a fact.

[@latebloomer177]

Tainos reached near extinction by the 1550, so most Dominicans are mixed Spaniards, AFRICANS and others.

NO, that’s a lie that black United States of Americans like to make up 😊 I’m Black Dominican and PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!! didn’t you see the video?! WE ARE THE FIRST! We are in fact the first black Americans 😊😊😊😊😊🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 learn the history of the continent! I would like to know how far deep in your ass you pulled the idea that Dominicans don’t like being called black. What you need to worry about is being called less than smart! Having a lower than average IQ is cancerous and I’d prefer If it does not metastasize all over the rest of the diaspora. Thanks-the ORIGINAL Black American

There were already indigenous people in the dominican republic and they were black.

[@robluv4592]

[@Español1959]

He visitado RD y he conocido personas de clase alta allí y casi todas tenían rasgos africanos más o menos acentuados. RD tiene una historia africana bastante signicativa y EVIDENTE. Los dominicanos no son conscientes de que negándolo se ridicularizan a nivel mundial.

[@Sage-mode12]

@@Español1959 Esperate ahi Español Tu estas diciendo que los dominicanos como eso que dijiste?? Claro que no podemos negar que estamos mezclados con diferentes etnias Pero decir lo que dijiste es como decir que ustedes y los Moroccan son lo mismo.

[@Español1959]

@@Sage-mode12si tú visitas mi ciudad verás que no nos parecemos a los moros en absoluto, tú visitas santo Domingo y verás mayoría de gente con rasgos africanos. Viendo tanta gente afrodecendientes, cómo puedes negarlo.
