Professor Ximena I know my blog is really late and I am really sorry but I couldn’t choose what I wanted my research paper to be on. Honestly I still don’t know about this topic because its really broad but finally here it is I want my research paper to be on environmental racism in Iraq.
I haven't fully thought about this research topic on Iraq but i think I want to do my paper on the environmental racism in Iraq. I feel that it’s a very important topic that people would be able to see how oil is really damaging the environment and polluting the air how soldiers in Iraq are in danger from toxic chemicals, yet most don't know what they've been exposed to or where to get help. I think I could find as much information on this topic because I believe Iraq is one of those countries that have the most pollution and contained resources that we are bound to find out about. But I still have to narrow my search to one specific area of Iraq. Even though these are not my only sources because I will need more sites but these articles are the ones I mostly would be focusing on.
My first resource is coming from a website dealing with war on Iraq.

My second resource will be Oil Well Fires and Spills in the 1991 Gulf War.

You have very good sources there debbie..maybe you can concentrate how warfare hurts the enviorment that way you can dop research on war methods hurting our earth...like the burning of villages in vietnam...and the events happening in iraq..you'd get more info and have more chances of finding articles
Great topic !
I agree with Erick--I would investigate to see which sub-topic has the most sources and then focus the paper on that.
Mmm...some of these sources are old (from the Gulf War). I would go to the library and ask the librarians to help you find some newer sources.
