Mujeres de Abril and the April 1965 U.S. Invasion the Dominican Republic Various images of Las Mujeres de Abril and Las Hermanas Mirabal , a catalyst for revolution. "A revolutionary act cannot be erased. Revolution is the desire to change the system.” Felipe Luciano The Dominican Republic’s war of April 1965, is the invasion that Americans don’t remember and that Dominicans will never forget. These images document the universal patterns which led to this historic event. This series examines the legacy of resistance and trauma caused by political oppression during the post-Trujillo era. The normative consequences of these patterns of dictatorship, authoritarian oppression, imperialism and foreign intervention in domestic elections, clashed with political dissent to permanently transform the Dominican Republic. The aftershock of the Revolution remains with us today. One noticeable impact is the creation of the Dominican diaspora which is currently the largest immigrant community in New York City, and the 4th largest Latin-x community in the USA. The same year that the US invaded Dominican Republic, the US government also enacted immigration reform and repealed the national origin quotas by passing the Hart-Cellar Act which no longer favored European immigrants. The Revolution was the push factor that pollinated New York with a community that would go on to nourish both this city and the homeland as a synergy between Santo Domingo and Nueva York was born. Backstory Trujillo’s 31 years as President ended in his CIA-backed assassination by a faction of the Dominican military. Trujillo’s murder was followed by an 18 month period of intense political turmoil that culminated in the first free elections in over 33 years on December 1962 . The Presidential election was won by the writer and poet Juan Bosch, a social-democrat. His pro-labor reforms were modest and yet angered the ruling class, the US government which had long protected American corporate investments in DR, and the Catholic Church who had signed a Vatican concordat with Trujillo. A concordat is an archaic and binding legal treaty between a sovereign nation and the Vatican City giving the RCC special rights and privileges in that nation. After only seven months in office, another US engineered military coup removed President Bosch from office and he was exiled to Puerto Rico. He was replaced by a military triumvirate installed by President Lyndon B. Johnson who made Donald Reed Cabral the new Dominican President. Less than two years later, Donald Reed and the triumvirate were challenged in a successful coup led by Colonel Francisco Caamaño and the Constitucionalistas who demanded Bosch’s return to power. Caamaño successfully took over El Palacio Nacional and Donald Reed and his family fled to Miami with US govt. assistance. During the same year that the Voting Rights Act was signed into law, President Lyndon B. Johnson ordered 42,000 troops into Santo Domingo on April 28, 1965 . LBJ claimed that the revolution in DR would result in "another Cuba" and that Americans living in DR were in danger. The Constitucionalistas advocated for the reforms proposed by President Juan Bosch in his Constitution #63. Their rebel stronghold positioned itself in Ciudad Nueva, the colonial part of Santo Domingo where the initial invasion of the Americas by Columbus occurred almost 500 years prior. My parents and siblings lived in Ciudad Nueva, in a house with a sunny courtyard and a parrot named Cuca. This project began with a profound curiosity about my parents’ experience while living under Trujillo’s dictatorship and a desire to understand how Trujillo’s assassination, and the revolution that followed, became catalysts for our migration to NYC. These images are a way of reclaiming this history and I consider this collection of images a “family” album that both embraces and documents the historical events that led to April 1965. The larger full size images give voice to the rebels who fought for freedom, particularly Las Mujeres de Abril, the Women of April, who took up arms and became a significant part of the resistance during the US Invasion, fighting and dying alongside the men. The list of women that fought is endless and they include Yolanda Guzman, Tina “La Bazookera”, Emma Tavares Justo, Gladys Borrel “La Coronela”, Sagrada Bujosa, Carmen Josefina, Nati Andujar “La China”, Mercedes Ramirez “La Rubia”, Carmen Josefina Lora Iglesias “Picky Lora”, Brunilda Amaral, Hilda Gautreaux, Lourdes Contreras, Angela Herrera and thousands more. When the revolution was over and the Dominican resistance defeated, 6,000 Dominicans, mostly civilians, and 44 US troops were dead. " The revolution was a response ..to those who said that we were cowards because Trujillo lasted 31 years " April 1965 offers lessons that are universally relevant today. The foreign interference and manipulation of free elections dictated by US capitalist interests and greed, were met by a resilient political response from a united people who clamored for their freedom and sovereignty. They succeeded in overturning Lyndon B. Johnson’s puppet government by creating a cohesive network of communities made up of untrained civilian commandos who fought the 42,000 US marines for over four months while retaining control of their government. The courage expressed by Dominicans was rooted in the trauma caused by Trujillo and by their vision that true democracy was possible with Juan Bosch’s presidency. The Balaguer era that followed the surrender of the Constitucionalistas began with a 12 year purge characterized by repression and violence and was one of the bloodiest periods in Dominican history. For the 22 years that Balaguer was in power, Dominicans experienced unemployment, famine and deep poverty which led to mass migration and exodus creating a vast Dominican diaspora in the USA. I believe the past is still present and the stories in these images contain a cautionary tale that help us recognize and understand the authoritarian patterns that can threaten a healthy democracy. Lastly, once completed this new work will form a part of the legacy of the April 1965 Revolution. Lourdes Bernard © 2017 All rights reserved.
