HOW LONG HAS YOUR ANCESTORS been in DR? the Dominican Republic, like many Latin American countries, has a historical legacy of “blanqueamiento” (racial whitening) efforts to promote lighter skin tones and European features in the population. This was achieved through mass migration to DR, via policies encouraging European immigration, selective marriages, and cultural denial of African heritage. Historical Blanqueamiento State policies under dictator Rafael Trujillo (1930–1961) aggressively pushed whitening by inviting European (including Jewish) immigrants to “improve the race” and promoting myths of Spanish-Taíno (indio) ancestry to erase African roots......Your Ancestors came to whitewash the Domincan Republic and you still have to migrate to the USA to Succeed.
