Dream Haiti (Draft)

"///I write Shante Chackmul & ask WHAT NAME BAHAMAS GIVE TO HAITIANS WHO COME TO YR OUSE TO BEG WURK///

And it was not that we was going anywhere if you see what i mean -
i mean we was not going anywhere although the ship was movin
i suppose & the sea was also movin impeccable & so were the waves
& yet in my dream it was juss like on board anyship anytime & tide"

Dream Haiti brings to light many emotions that refugees from Haiti felt during that time. They were forced out to find a new and better life but in the process were not making any progress. The ship was moving but there status was not and because of which, they were subject to whim of the rest of the world. This text being written in an modern font, (not modern anymore), yet being combined with broken English captures many eyes to the importance of his story, example of New Discourse. We are all human, yet we treat each other so differently. Help is needed and they shouldn't be ignored like they were substandard. This also points to unhomeliness in a new interconnected world.
