Puerto Rican who?

Aliza Hausman

Why can’t people tell the difference between Puerto Ricans and Dominicans? There need to be some more Dominican TV characters so people recognize. Meanwhile, have you seen this oldie but goodie clip from Scrubs?

(Okay, confession: I’m at least 1/16 Puerto Rican.)

  2. When I managed a now defunct moving company, here in Chicago, we had a Puerto Rican employee who was terrified of going on long distance moves to New York City because he said “there are Dominicans there and those guys are crazy!”
