I believe this was published on Diario Libre, October 31, 2005. It seems to represent a Haitian teacher telling his Haitian students that Rafael Leónidas Trujillo -at the left- was "very bad" whereas Leonel Fernandez is to be considered "good, good".

The banner mocks Haitians' accent and use of the Spanish language. Also mocks Leonel Fernandez and his so-called 'soft-hand' policy towards Haiti and people of Haitian origin in the Dominican Republic.

Reality is that under Leonel Fernandez's presidential rule, thousands of Dominican children of Haitian origin do not have access to an official birth registration and their nationality rights are hindered in disregard of the Dominican Constitution. Just imagine what other human rights are jeopardized.

Given the context, Harold Priego-the author, has depicted caricatures of Haitians, instead of Haitian characters; he has frequently done so in banners published on a newspaper in the Dominican Republic (Diario Libre). Luckily, I am a free person and have the right to use this digital reproduction to criticize his work.
