If you asked me what I was,& you meant in terms of culture,I’d say Dominican.No hesitation,no question about it.Can you be from a placeyou have never been?You can find the island stamped all over me,but what would the island find if I was there?Can you claim a home that does not know you,much less claim you as its own?
