description | This is a roughly edited compilation of testimonies for the inter-American Court about the treatment of individuals of Haitian descent in the Dominican Republic, many of whom were deported to Haiti. Subtitled in Spanish. In the Summer of 2000, the Columbia University Human Rights Institute submitted a video piece before the Inter-American Court to support its petition requesting that the Court adopt provisional measures to protect the rights of Haitian nationals and Dominican nationals of Haitian descent being arbitrarily deported to Haiti. Prior to the Summer hearing, WITNESS trained two law students from the Institute on how to use the video camera in interview situations. The students took a WITNESS camera to the Dominican Haitian border to gather documentation and testimony for the hearing. WITNESS and the Human Rights Institute worked together to produce a final piece for the summer hearing before the Court. The InterAmerican Court has since ruled in favor of adopting protective measures on behalf of the individual petitioners named in the petition. |
