Reading the Past

This is an awesome list! We already have a different theme suggestion for the Golden Age of Piracy, so perhaps we could split off non-pirate Caribbean history? There's even enough to do Haiti/DR in the 20th century as a theme on its own. Or slavery in the Caribbean as another? I worry that if we try to do a whole region's entire history as one theme, we'll spread ourselves too thin and have trouble comparing the perspectives.
