For my third essay, I was thinking about writing over drug trafficking. It hits pretty close to home for me because my family’s from one of the border states in Mexico, which is one of the hot spots for the cartels, which is sad because I can’t go over and visit my grandparents without fearing for my life. I also thought about it because I keep hearing what’s happening on the other side of the border on the news, and it stems from and feeds other social problems. However, I was thinking about having a King source in this paper, and King, from what I know, doesn’t do very much on the whole drug trafficking thing. As a plan B, I was thinking something more along the lines of police brutality. I found the perfect example in The Green Mile: Percy Wetmore. I see a few clips and stories about that on the news as well, so it will without a doubt have plenty of articles related to it on all the news websites. Other than that, I really can’t come up with anything else.

Hey enrique I think it is a very good idea that you are writing about drug trafficking. I'm talking about human trafficking. I'm sorry to hear about not being able to go see your family without having fear. I heard that they are going to start patrolling the borders more for drug trafficking. Let me know how your research goes.
