You can go to your embassy in any country.

I believe you can always get back to your home country, its going elsewhere you will have problems.

It is quite possible that the airline following the rules will not let someone without a valid, unexpired passport travel, home country or not. You can go to the DR consulate in Times Square to take care of it quickly.

You should go the Dominican Consulate in NYC. They will give a "carta de ruta" which will allow you to travel back to the DR.
