Dominicans attacking Black Americans – News Report – Machete Trinitarios

The tensions that erupted Thursday with the crack of a bottle and the flash of a blade started to escalate near the end of the academic year, as an influx of Dominican students began “targeting” black classmates in an assertion of racial dominance, the mother of two GAR students said Friday. “All these children are saying the Dominicans think they are superior to everyone else,” the woman, who requested anonymity to protect her children from retribution, said. Students at the school agreed with that assessment, saying the battle between Dominican students and black students evolved out of an innate drive for power, or as eighth grader Marquahn Kemp described it, to “be the head of the school.” “They think they run GAR and we think we run GAR,” Kemp, who is black, said. The battle within the school, he said, is part psychological, part biological. The Dominican students and black students, like high schoolers of all races and generations, strive to be the biggest and strongest, the most popular, the big men on campus. Except, he said, they have taken their campaign to the extreme and, like animals in the wild, are resorting to physical violence to defeat groups they perceive as inferior. “It’s just like, you put two alpha males in one room, it’s really going to happen, it’s going to be crazy, right?” Kemp said. “You put two alpha male dogs, that’s how it is. Blacks, alpha-male. Dominicans, alpha-male. Spanish, alpha-male. All that. It’s just crazy. You can’t have it.” Students, repeating details of the attack that had circulated through the school, said a Dominican perpetrator cracked a bottle over the head of a black student, threw him to the ground and swung at his throat with a machete in an attempt to slash or decapitate him. The 15-year-old who was struck, also black, stuck his arm in front of the other boy’s throat, saving his life but sacrificing his wrist, the students said. “That kid who got his hand chopped, he saved the other kid’s life,” Norbert said Friday. “If he didn’t put his hand in, they would have killed him. They would have chopped off his head.”
