One name, two distinct identities! 🇩🇴

During Hispanic Heritage Month, Yessenia Tavarez ’27 and Rev. David Orique, O.P. ’25G brought the Providence College community together to explore the shared name, distinct identities, and histories of Dominicanos and Dominicos.

The image features a red background showcasing a black bookmark and a white booklet. The bookmark displays the text "DOMINICO/AS" vertically with a Dominican cross symbol. The booklet, titled "A Shared Name: DOMINICANAS Y DOMINICANOS," is about people connected to the Dominican Republic's culture and the Order of Preachers.

A collection of Dominican Republic souvenirs is displayed, including candy, dominoes, and small containers of local delicacies. The Dominican Republic flag is visible in the foreground with vibrant colors. Text at the top highlights the country's historical independence and name.
