Scope and content
The 2015 Dominicans of Haitian Descent Twitter archive contains data set of tweets collected from the Twitter microblogging platform documenting the Dominican Republic's Constitutional Court ruling that retroactively limited birthright citizenship pre 1929.
In 2015, Special Collections collected tweets relating to the following phrases and hashtags: #WeAeAllDominicans and #hatianlivesmatter.
The tweets collected by Special Collections for this data archive do not represent an exhaustive or complete record of all tweets relating to the targeted hashtags due to restrictions on tweet volume accessed via the Twitter API.
