"Remembering to Never Forget: Dominican Republic's 'Parsley Massacre’” by Mark Memmott:
Seventy-five years ago, thousands of Haitians were murdered in the Dominican Republic by a brutal dictator. It was one of the 20th Century's least-remembered acts of genocide.
As many as 20,000 people are thought to have been killed on orders given by Rafael Trujillo. But the "parsley massacre” went mostly unnoticed outside Hispaniola. Even there, many Dominicans never knew about what happened in early October 1937. They were kept in the dark by Trujillo's henchmen.
"A Genetics of Justice” by Julia Alvarez:
At this point I would always ask her why she and my father had returned to live in the country if they knew the dictatorship was so bad. And that's when my mother would tell me how, under pressure from his friends up north, Trujillo pretended to be liberalizing his regime. How he invited all exiles back to form political parties. How he announced that he would not be running in the next elections. My father had returned only to discover that the liberalization was a hoax staged so that the regime could keep the goodwill and dollars of the United States.
My father and mother were once again trapped in a police state.

In the second excerpt Julia Alvarez is talking about lies that her parents did hear and they return under wrong expectation because of that.

Explanation:
Rudyard Kipling's short story "The Mark of the Beast" tells the story of how a newly arrived landowner from England to India had desecrated the Hindu god Hanuman. His act of branding the image of the god with a cigarette butt with "<em>Mark of the B--beasht</em>" had led to the "Silver Man" to put a curse on him.
After Fleete grind the cigar into the forehead of the temple statue, the naked and leprous man "Silver Man" touched him with his head to Fleete's chest. This started the transformation of Fleete from a civilized Englishman into a beast- his smelling senses grew more refined and he began to crave and eat raw meat. And in a short number of days, he fully leaves behind any form of a human and began howling like a wolf.
