This article written by Abigail Griffith, a research associate for the Council on Hemispheric Affairs, an established organization. It presents accurate information on the status of indigenous people in several countries in Latin America. Published recently on June 21, 2010, the article uses facts as well as statistics from the past and present, that are correctly cited with it, as evidence. It is an excellent source, providing in-depth analysis on the topic.

Though this article has no specified author, the site is obviously trustworthy from the copyright at the bottom of the article (Copyright 2010 by BNO News B.V. All rights reserved. Info: sales@bnonews.com.).  The article is clearly written, tapping evidence from officials to support the story.  The information is broken down and covered thoroughly, even though the article itself is quite short. 

The article comes from the Huffington Post, a fairly legitimate site, but there is no clear indication of author. The article contains legitimate information as well, no spelling/grammar mistakes and it has links to other sources like the Wall Street Journal and CNN which verify the information presented. The article is essentially the facts on Obama's policy overhaul. The article is from 2009, right after the information was published from the government. All links are current and up to date. There is enough coverage for an understanding of the issue, plus links to longer articles on other websites.

Anthony DePalma is a noted journalist for the New York Times, having spent time reporting from various countries in Latin America. This article is a compilation of New York Times coverage of Cuba, Fidel Castro, and US-Cuba Relations. On the right side of the page, there are links to other related sources. The page is easy to read and has a wide range of information. The New York Times is generally a very accurate newspaper, and the article was edited in July of 2010, which is definitely recent enough to have current information on what is covered in the article. This is a good background article, but there are other sources available for more specific aspects.

Jacqueline Charles, of the Miami Herald, is the newspaper's Caribbean Correspondent. and is a native Haitian. Though the article does mention that statistics come from "recent polls", it is not said where or when the polls were taken. The article also seems a bit biased towards the people who are frustrated about the elections and the government, and barely mentions those who believe the opposite. The article was very recently published (on Oct15, 2010), and seems to cover quite a bit of information within this fairly narrow topic.

An extensive biography on Fidel Castro and an interesting movie.
