HIS 100 Module Three Activity Template: Revising Questions Identify the topic you chose to explore:
Haitian Revolution
Identify a historical perspective that could be applied to your historical event.
A historical perspective that could be applied to the Haitian Revolution would be a political perspective. The Haitian Revolution is viewed as the most radical political event of the modern era. This is because the Haitian Revolution was “the only revolt of enslaved people to abolish slavery, overturn colonialism, and create the first free and independent Black nation in the Americas,” (Eddins, 2021). Revise your research question based on evidence from your primary and secondary sources.
How did Haiti's independence affect the country after separating from France?
How did the Haitian Revolution affect the political movement in Haiti and around the world?
Explain how historical perspective and evidence from sources influenced your finalized research question.
I realized there was fewer information out there about how Haiti is doing after its independence, but there is a vast amount of information on how the Haitian Revolution influenced other countries through their dedication to take down the French. I believe this will make my research more interesting.
