Informative Speech On Haiti

While this was happening the people of the Dominican Republic didn’t know. To them he won fair and square, and he was going to take care of their country.

Due to the two countries being so close to each other, naturally some Haitians lived in the Dominican Republic and vise versa.

' ' Kathy Goes to Haiti uses a narrative of the protagonist’s trip to Haiti and the people that she meets there as a constrained example of broader categories of human relationships, both interpersonal and political. It does this very well, and without sacrificing the protagonist’s (Kathy’s) humanity by turning her into some sort of straw man – a humanity which is reinforced by several stream-of-consciousness interludes that give the author the chance to add her own voice to the fictional character that bears her name. This book, alone, would probably merit a five-star review.

In our history there have been many wars, revolutions, and consequences to all of these things, such as lives lost or land being destroyed but it was all worth it when they succeeded and got what they wanted, freedom. Many countries go through revolutions because they might have been under rule from another person and or country and wanted their independence. A revolution is when people overthrow a social order or even a government and are in favor of a new system or government. The American Revolution and Haitian Revolution had some similarities and some differences and this is what my argument will be about, comparing and contrasting both revolutions.

Even though Haiti’s a poor country, his people have a big heart. Parents don’t want their child to work, they make them focus on school only, and their education.
