If Dominican were a color, it would be the sunset in the sky, blazing red and burning bright. If Dominican were a color, it’d be the roar of the ocean in the deep of the night, with the moon beaming down rays of sheer delight. The palette of the Dominican Republic is exuberant and unlimited. Maiz comes up amarillo, the blue-black of dreams washes over sandy shores, and people’s skin can be the shade of cinnamon in cocoa or of mahogany. This exuberantly colorful, softly rhyming picture book is a gentle reminder that a nation’s hues are as wide as nature itself.

“The Dominican Republic was for most of its history primarily an exporter of sugar, coffee, and tobacco, but in recent years the service sector has overtaken agriculture as the economy's largest employer, due to growth in construction, tourism, and free trade zones. The mining sector has also played a greater role in the export market since late 2012 with the commencement of the extraction phase of the Pueblo Viejo Gold and Silver mine, one of the largest gold mines in the world. The country suffers from marked income inequality; the poorest half of the population receives less than one-fifth of GDP, while the richest 10% enjoys nearly 40% of GDP. High unemployment, a large informal sector, and underemployment remain important long-term challenges. The economy is highly dependent upon the US, the destination for approximately half of exports. Remittances from the US amount to about 7% of GDP, equivalent to about a third of exports and two-thirds of tourism receipts. The Central America-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement came into force in March 2007, boosting investment and manufacturing exports. The Dominican Republic's economy rebounded from the global recession in 2010-16, and the fiscal situation is improving. A tax reform package passed in November 2012, a reduction in government spending, and lower energy costs helped to narrow the central government budget deficit from 6.6% of GDP in 2012 to 2.6% in 2016. A liability management operation in January 2015, in which the government paid down over $4 billion of the country’s Petrocaribe debt at a discount of 52% with proceeds from the sale of $2.5 billion in global bonds, reduced the country’s debt load by approximately by 4% of GDP. Since 2015 the Dominican Republic has posted the fastest economic growth in Latin America.# (indexmundi.com) #dismantlethepatriarchy #disruptthenarrative #decolonizeyourmind #loveisrevolutionary #undoracism #understandinghistory #capitalismdoesntwork #dominicanbooks #decolonizekiskeya #dominicanhaitian #haitiandominican #dominicanslovehaitians #antiracisteducation https://www.instagram.com/p/By9daBwlsh3/?igshid=12r9uh7pb3hef

Via • @dominicanwriters This platform celebrates our Latino/Dominican books all day everyday 24/7. Nevertheless we are still celebrating Latino Heritage month and have joined @lupita.reads and other bookstagrammers in in doing so! Check out the amazing list & hit the follow button! #repost @lupita.reads ・・・ I am thrilled to share that the #latinxbookstagramtour is back for its 3rd consecutive year! These are all-new Latinx bookish accounts ready to share their Latinx book recommendations & experiences with connecting to Latinx literature. For those of you new to the tour, I initially created it in 2018 to highlight & amplify Latinx Book Recommendations by amazing Latinx Bookish Folx. The tour personally means so much to me. I’ve discovered that celebrating Latinx bookish accounts reminds me that existing loudly and visibly as a Latinx reader is more than just “enough.” It’s necessary. Especially as we enter into an election year with a misrepresentation of the vast spectrum of the Latinx lived experience. Reading is and will always be political. So please follow the hashtag & my stories because I will be sharing each Latinx book recommendation every day from all these amazing accounts. My hope is you’ll discover amazing Latinx accounts & fill your TBR with Latinx books to read all year long! If you are looking to help the tour out-sharing these bookish accounts & recommendations would be amazing! This year the tour added two special author events & we will also be launching prompts for non-Latinx readers to join us as well as giveaways with publishers. So much greatness this year! Huge thank you @idleutopia_reads for co-hosting the tour with me this year. #latinobooks #dominicanbooks #latinoreaders #dominicanreaders #storytellers #cuentacuentos https://www.instagram.com/p/CFQVF1CJbe1/?igshid=tph693uc87mm

Acompañanos a la puesta en circulación de “Yun Yun (pa’ la calor)”. Yun yun (pa’ la calor) consiste en una treintena de cuentos variados en estilo y formato, pero unidos por una misma espina dorsal: el desamparo en la cotidianidad. Esta fresca colección trata temas del día a día, incluyendo relatos sobre padres e hijos, amigos, parejas, y la relación más importante de todas: la relación consigo mismo. Karlina Veras, a través de su primera colección de cuentos, trae al mundo literario una propuesta atrevida, en la cual muestra una gran habilidad del uso del lenguaje, al igual de mezclar géneros y voces de una forma natural y elegante. Esta colección está repleta de humor y reflexión. Y como todo buen libro, no se puede dejar de leer. Karlina Veras nació en Santo Domingo, República Dominicana. Reside en Londres, Inglaterra desde el 2006. Inspirada en la vida cotidiana y su tierra natal, escribe desde pequeña. También tiene experiencia en otros campos creativos como la música, el arte y el cine. En el 2017 su cuento ‘La Victoria’ fue publicado en la antología ‘Otras Vidas Posibles’.
