No, it's not. In montreal, we are super proud of being haitian. But then again, we are the black majority here. I only notice this shyt when I go to the states

Welp Jolie, what can I tell you, there are people who are embarrassed of their heritage from all walks of life. Haitians from that are not exempt. You will always meet the few who don't want to be. I however am surrounded by Haitians who love, embrace, and represent their ethnicity whenever they are given the chance to do so. I grew up around nothing but PROUD Haitians. Maybe it's time you switch your circle and help your family find their pride.

Glad to hear this. Truly. But I don't need to switch circles, though. It's something I notice with haitian americans, not here. Again, I know where it comes from but it's annoying nonetheless

Well, for my age group 19. It just started being "okay" or "cool" to be Haitian
If
you would have asked elementary and middle school kids( during my time)
to rep being Haitian they would have declined. they would have rather
been anything but Haitian tsk tsk

lmaoo, i think it depend on the time period AND area you grew up in. i know a guy that is half and was bashing haitians to the fullest. then I know haitians that are a quarter and claim nothing else. At one point I was ashamed then my family woke me.
