Introductions

Hi, guys!

I’m Katie, I’m a sophomore at the college, and I am planning to major in History and double minor in Anthropology and English. I am most excited about learning three major things over the course of this semester. I want to learn more about American government and military involvement in Cuba during the Cuban Revolution, as I do not believe this topic gets as much in depth coverage as it should in most history classes. I have always been very intrigued by the Cold War and the general ambiguity that surrounds it, so I’m looking forward to learning about it through the more focused scope of Latin American studies. I am also interested to talk about and analyze the immigration policies of America, as well as Latin America. I hold a viewpoint on immigration that typically differs from most of my peers here at the college, so I’m interested to see what discussions we will have on the topic.
