Its a strong possibility that in the near future I will be working on a documentary focusing on racism in the Caribbean and Latin America. I will keep you posted. In the meantime, you can check out the email he sent me a while back.

Dear Mr. Cabrera,

Thank you for your email of March 24, and for your interest in contributing to
the Diaspora documentary we are planning. We are only in the beginning stages
of this project, but I will keep your work on file should we wish to contact
you as we move forward with it.

You write eloquently about the problems facing African Diaspora blacks in Latin
America and the Caribbean, and specifically about the problems in the Dominican
Republic and Haiti. Thank you for sharing your thoughts to me.

Best wishes,

Henry Louis Gates, Jr.
