Some of my kinks during the writing process
Currently some of the issues I'm currently facing with my paper is meshing institutional approach with particularly more recent issues that have occurred in Haiti (such as the 2010 earthquake and government aid from the US). After finally posing a question that I aim to answer within my paper I have found a lot more arguments to make. However, at the same time I've also realized that focusing to heavily on the historical context of Haiti and DR may not be in my best interest if I don't remain focused on my institutional argument. Due to this I have contemplated either focusing on only more recent issues between DR and Haiti. Or even going as far to only focus on Haiti alone. Which brings another issue I have been facing. A lot of the sources I have been researching for this project have been noticeably biased. Either one side being partisan to Haiti or DR. There are a few ways around this but again it has been tough trying to mesh it all together while staying on the topic of strictly black identity.
