The Price of Sugar

In the Dominican Republic, a stark contrast exists between the picturesque tourist areas and the harsh reality of thousands of Haitian laborers who work on sugarcane plantations under armed guard.

Tourists flock to the Dominican Republic's pristine beaches, unaware that thousands of Haitians are forced to work on sugarcane plantations, harvesting most of the crop that ends up in US kitchens.
