In Someone Else's Country Anti-Haitian Racism and Citizenship in the Dominican Republic

In Someone Else's Country is a groundbreaking work that details the current situation of racial profiling in Caribbean countries where certain citizens are denied any documentation to become a citizen of the country they were born and raised in. They now wonder why as a birth right citizen, they feel like they are in someone else's country. Countries like the Dominican Republic and Haiti are creating a "statelessness" second class citizen through targeted immigration policies. The book profiles dozens of these unrecognized citizens and connects their experience with larger, global and contemporary discussions on race, immigration, citizenship and statelessness. The author also discusses how this issue will lead to future immigration concerns as many of these people seek asylum in the United States.
