Abstract

The article "In the Shadow of Haiti: US Black Internationalism in the Dominican Republic, 1860-1904" examines African Americans' perspectives on the Dominican Republic in comparison to Haiti during the 19th century. It discusses how African Americans saw the Dominican Republic as a contrast to Haiti, emphasizing its importance to US Black internationalism during the Reconstruction era. The text also explores the role of Black US foreign service officers in Santo Domingo and their influence on US policies towards the Dominican Republic. It delves into the complexities of African Americans' views on the Dominican Republic, shaped by their perceptions of race relations and economic opportunities on the island.
