While Haiti is one of the poorest ($1,300 per capita in 2008) and least educated (47.1% illiteracy rate) counties in the Western Hemisphere - it's island neighbor The Dominican Republic is much better off ($9,209 per capita in 2008).
Haiti's racial majority is Black (90%) - while the Dominican Republic's lists "Mixed" (70%) as their racial majority, followed by White (16%) and Black (11%).
So even in a country with about an 80% Black majority (The Dominican Republic) - they still think that they're better than those "other" Blacks from across the border.
