Though your post shows "glimpses" of truth, I, and many like me, could argue that in asking about your heritage you have more defended a stagnant argument instead of internalizing a different possibility.

Just an opinion



Mr. Lu
No offense, but the above statement is false. We have current DNA evidence of Dominicans that verifies the Tainos were never obliterated, only that they assimilated in to the general popultion - fact.

Please see the discussion in the "Tainos in DR" thread.
