Open Letter to Dominican President Luis Abinader: Stop Deportations Now!


OCTOBER 11, 2024
Facebook


To President Luis Abinader,

As writers, scholars, artists, activists, and people who believe in human rights, we write to condemn the unconscionable violence that your government has unleashed on Haitians, Dominicans of Haitian descent and Black Dominicans since your announcement on October 2nd to deport 10,000 Haitians per week. 

The chosen date, October 2nd, commemorates 87 years since dictator Trujillo ordered the massacre of over 20,000 ethnic Haitians and Black Dominicans on the Dominican borderlands. Clearly, you are following in the footsteps of the dictator, upholding the views of the right-wing extremists, and using public funding to propagate fear and hate. The timing of your announcement is not a mere coincidence but an intentional act to show the Dominican state's policy of continuing the dictator's plan of ethnic cleansing of Haitian people on Dominican soil.

We come to you as a collective of Dominicans and non-Dominican allies who care deeply about human rights, freedom and democracy to demand that you stop at once this macabre deportation plan and put into place a plan that protects the civil liberties of all people living on Dominican soil, including Dominicans who disagree with you, those Dominicans who trace their ancestry to Haiti and immigrants who are currently sustaining our economy with their labor. With that said, we demand the following:

* Ending mass deportations

* Restoring the nationality of people unconstitutionally denationalized in 2013

* Ending the de facto state of exception and restoring full constitutional guarantees

* Ending forced labor and respecting the human rights of Haitian workers

Mass deportation of a singled-out community is a practice condemned by international law. 

Since October 2nd following your order, Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent are being violently persecuted, families separated, houses broken into, communities terrorized. The fact that the state deportation machinery targets pregnant women shows how far the inhumanity of your plan is willing to go. There is no regard for life, no room for empathy. At a time when neighboring Haiti is facing one of its worst political crises and humanitarian catastrophes, you have chosen to make Haitian people more vulnerable and to promote hate and chaos. We urge you to stop this mass deportation plan at once. We urge you to put an end to this state-sponsored hate. 

We take this opportunity to remind the people of conscience around the world that ever since you became president four years ago, the Dominican state has shown a complete disregard for Haitian lives, for the lives of Dominicans of Haitian descent and for Black people. You have chosen to ally yourself with Israel and Trump in your policies and ideals, and with extractive corporations that further deepen Dominican dependency on foreign powers while claiming sovereignty and blaming Haitian immigrants who are enriching your economy with cheap labor for said dependency. The hypocrisy of the Dominican state knows no bounds. Its policies are dangerous to democracy.

Open letter to Dominican President Luis Abinader:

Stop deportations now!

To President Luis Abinader,

As writers, academics, artists, activists, and people who believe in human rights, we write to condemn the unconscionable violence your government has unleashed against Haitians, Dominicans of Haitian descent, and Black Dominicans since its announcement on October 2 to deport 10,000 Haitians per week.

The date chosen, October 2, commemorates 87 years since dictator Trujillo ordered the massacre of more than 20,000 Haitians and black Dominicans in the Dominican border areas. It is clear that they are following in the dictator's footsteps, defending the views of right-wing extremists and using public funding to spread fear and hatred. The timing of his announcement is not a mere coincidence, but an intentional act to show the Dominican State's policy of continuing with the dictator's plan of ethnic cleansing of the Haitian people on Dominican soil.

We address you as a collective of Dominicans and non-Dominican allies who care deeply about human rights, freedom, and democracy to demand that you immediately stop this macabre deportation plan and put in place a plan that protects the civil liberties of all people living on Dominican soil, including Dominicans who disagree with you. the Dominicans who trace their ancestry to Haiti and the immigrants who currently sustain our economy with their labor. That said, we demand the following:

* End mass deportations

* Restoration of the nationality of persons unconstitutionally denationalized in 2013

* End the de facto state of emergency and restore all constitutional guarantees

* End forced labour and respect the human rights of Haitian workers

* The mass deportation of a marginalized community is a practice condemned by international law.

Since October 2, following his order, Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent are being violently persecuted, families separated, houses raided, communities terrorized. The fact that the state deportation machinery is focused on pregnant women shows how far the inhumanity of its plan is willing to go. There is no respect for life, there is no room for empathy. At a time when neighbouring Haiti is facing one of its worst political crises and humanitarian catastrophes, you have chosen to make it more vulnerable and promote hatred and chaos. We urge you to stop this mass deportation plan immediately. We urge you to put an end to this state-sponsored hatred.

We take this opportunity to remind people of conscience around the world that since you assumed the presidency four years ago, the Dominican State has shown total disregard for Haitian lives, for the lives of Dominicans of Haitian descent, and for Black people. They have chosen to ally themselves with Israel and Trump in their policies and ideals, and with extractive corporations that further deepen Dominican dependence on foreign powers while claiming sovereignty and blaming Haitian immigrants who are enriching their economy with cheap labor for said dependence. The hypocrisy of the Dominican State has no limits. Their policies are dangerous for democracy.
