NORTHERN COAST OF THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC OUTSIDE OF SOSUA.
Bateyes/Ghettos/barrios bajos usually shack shanti towns filled with Haitian refugees.
I have known the DR probably better than most Dominicans for 33 years. I lived there 4 years while in Medical School and have travelled through almost every corner and know it very very well. Historically it is fascinating and i have read books on the nation that was once ruled by HAITI the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
I have returned once or twice a year over 30 years and grown to appreciate the photographic opportunities there. I did help build a hospital with the ex GOV of NJ many years back in a town called PARAISO ( paradise ) where there are no doctors nurses or anyone medically trained. Corruption and indifference closed it a few years after it was built. I have not been back so i do not know what transpired.
circa 1983
Haitians
left their island nation
for a better
life.
In the Dominican Republic
atleast they found jobs.
They were usually paid 1-2 USD/10 hours a day
to cut cane for the huge
corporation
DOMINO sugar
Most of the mills
have been privatized
or closed
Historically these ghettos/ AKA
BATEYES
were residential areas
close to SUGAR REFINERY MILLS.
