Yolanda was denied the right to lodge a complaint when she suffered domestic violence and file for child support because she didn't have an identity card. Thousands in the Dominican Republic are denied social life. In September 2013 the Constitutional Court of the country deprived them of their Dominican nationality. Yolanda's fault? Being of Haitian descent, like thousands more.
