M.B.M Reflection: Chapter 11
Basically, this chapter reflects upon the hope of Paul Farmer regarding his dream that change will finally come to Haiti. It seems like Farmers hope also revolves around the actions of Jean-Bertrand Aristide. I felt like the chapter was tricky and sly to be honest. In the beginning, it seemed as if Haiti was improving because of the Health Ministry's steps to help the poor. However, it lead back to the same situation with violence as the Military reinforced and deposed people. In addition to the chapter, there were many un-elected governments trying to take hold of power, yet the military were the ones controlling the country. In conclusion, the chapter was mainly expressing the brutality of the Haitian military.
