Here is a video of the march that took place on February 25, 2015 against Dominican racism. Many Haitian artists were present to show their support, including Shabba ,Tjoe ,Frésh La ,Mika Ben

Reports of the scene's further degeneration are that, though police were on-hand, no arrests were made, even though a Dominican woman was reportedly chased by protesters briefly. Also, eyewitnesses say some of the policemen were flag-carrying members of the march. Still, the angst of the crowd could be considered as justified in light of the relations between the two countries in which Haitians have for decades been on the losing end. Just weeks ago, a young Haitian man who worked as a shoe shiner was lynched in the Dominican Republic with many reports claiming his murder to be racially motivated.
