I don't have personal fears but like many of you I'm deeply afraid of extreme human behaviours. I was in Haiti and several times I heard people talk about their neighbour state, the Dominican Republic. Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the same island, Hispaniola, but they seem to live in a totally opposite way. In reality, I was really shocked when I read in the Haitian newspaper Haiti progrès the Dominican Vice-President's speech. He had said that everybody needed to find a solution to put a stop to Haitian immigration because they were invading the Dominican Republic. He added that the problem was that the Haitians were overpopulating their country because Haitian women are "giving birth like animals in our hospitals". When I read those horrible words I wanted to do more research about the relations between the two sides of the island.
