At issue is a ruling by the Constitutional Court in the Dominican Republic to strip away the citizenship of several generations of Dominicans.
According to the decision, Dominicans born after 1929 to parents who are not of Dominican ancestry are to have their citizenship revoked. The ruling affects an estimated 250,000 Dominican people of Haitian descent, including many who have had no personal connection with Haiti for several generations.
What we are witnessing is one of the largest humanitarian crisis in the western hemisphere, except this one is completely by choice.

In two days about a quarter of a million people will be made stateless. They will have no homes, no passports, and no civil rights. There are several reasons for this, but the primary reason is racism.

And to highlight it, the United States destroyed more than a ton of elephant ivory in New York’s Times Square on Friday.
Lawmakers, wildlife officials, conservationists and bystanders watched the ivory turn into sand-like powder as an industrial rock crusher descended on carvings and raw tusks.

Andre McPherson has been coming to the Emanuel AME Church here off and on since 2003. His visit on Thursday night was his first in a couple of years, he said with a hint of guilt, but he felt he owed it to the church leaders and congregation to stop by.
In his more trying days when he was homeless, McPherson said, he often found himself at the doorstep of what’s known as “Mother Emanuel.” The Charleston resident credits the historic African-American church with helping him get off of drugs.
“This church helped me get me life together,” McPherson, 44, said through tears. “It helped me go back to my kids. It helped me get away from a certain street mentality. It helped me have pride.”

Nine people were shot to death by a white man at a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina, on Wednesday night — rocking a nation already grappling with institutional racism and race-related violence.
The gunman entered the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church during a weekly Bible study meeting and opened fire around 9 p.m. Eight people were found dead at the scene, police said. Two others were transported to a hospital, where one later died.
The suspect, named as 21-year-old Dylann Roof, was captured Thursday morning in Shelby, North Carolina, according to Attorney General Loretta Lynch. According to Charleston Police Chief Greg Mullen, Roof was arrested during a traffic stop.

The 40-year wait is over. Say goodbye to the interminable misery and despair and shame that has haunted the Warriors and their fans for decades.
They’re champions.
The. Warriors. Are. Champions.
A 105-97 victory over the Cavaliers in Game 6 of the NBA Finals Tuesday night at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland punctuated the best season in franchise history and gave the Warriors their first title since 1975,
The Warriors were too deep, too good and, ultimately, too relentless for the pesky but undermanned Cavaliers.

They’ve done it again.
But this time, they did it at home.
For the third time in the last six years — and for the first time in Chicago since 1938 — the Blackhawks ascended to the top of the NHL, beating Tampa Bay 2-0 on Monday night in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final, winning the series four games to two.
Tonight’s game was, like every game this series, a thrilling affair with little separating the two teams. While the final didn’t go the full seven games and failed to feature a single overtime, the Bolts and ‘Hawks combined for one of the most tightly-contested championship series the NHL’s seen in a long time.
Perhaps that’s why it took a special play from a special player to decide it.

Many moons ago, a small space probe named Philae skipped across the surface of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko when the lander’s harpoon-like anchoring mechanism failed. It came to rest in a shady spot and, without enough sunlight to keep it powered, it fell asleep after about 60 hours of operation.
Mission scientists had been trying to pinpoint its location since November — until late Saturday.
At 10:28 p.m., the European Space Agency’s operations center in Darmstadt, Germany, just south of Frankfurt, received a signal from Philae, which transmitted more than 300 data packets. Those have been analyzed at the Lander Control Center at the German Aerospace Center, which dubbed Philae’s emergence from its seven-month slumber a “‘hello’ from space.”

A suspected gunman who ambushed Dallas police headquarters Saturday morning was shot and is believed to be dead, the city’s police chief said.
SWAT snipers struck the suspect through the windshield of his van in the Dallas suburb of Hutchins during a standoff in which no officers or civilians were hurt, Police Chief David Brown told reporters.
But because officers found bags with explosives that had been “spread out all over police headquarters,” police were not approaching the van, he said.

Prison seamstress Joyce Mitchell gave hacksaw blades, drill bits and lighted eyeglasses to fugitive felons Richard Matt and David Sweat before their breakout nearly one week ago, sources said.
Mitchell “provided some form of equipment or tools” to the inmates while her husband, Lyle, “possibly could have been involved or at least had knowledge” of the escape, Clinton County District Attorney Andrew Wylie told CNN on Friday. The information was developed through interviews.
