Answer:

It is estimated that the Spanish flu killed more people in 24 weeks than AIDS has killed in 24 years and more in a year than the Black Death killed in a century. Hence it is referred to as “the greatest medical holocaust in history”. The pandemic which started in the final year of the First World War not only killed more people than the World War I but it killed more people than all the wars of the 20th century combined.

The mortality rate of the 1918 flu was up to 20% of those infected which is 200 times the usual flu epidemic mortality rate of 0.1%. With nearly one third of the global population being infected it is estimated that three to six percent of the world’s population died due to the pandemic. 500 million people were infected across the world and 50 to 100 million of them were killed.

The 1918 flu spread across the world even to remote areas like Pacific islands and the Arctic. A large factor in the worldwide occurrence of this flu was increased travel. Modern transportation systems made it easier for people to spread the disease. By the end of the pandemic, only one major region on the entire planet had not reported an outbreak: an isolated island called Marajo, located in Brazil’s Amazon River Delta.

Read the excerpt from "Remembering to Never Forget: Dominican Republic’s ‘Parsley Massacre’” by Mark Memmott.
Evgesh-ka [11]

The correct option is D. Memmott explains that the tragedy is not well known today and then shows why it is worth remembering.

Dominican Republic and Haiti are neighbor countries. Many Haitians seek for refuge in their neighbor nation until today, because the Dominican Republic has been increasing its economy over the years, giving more opportunities for a better life than in Haiti.

Unfortunately, through cruelty, Trujillo's government executed many Haitian people only because they were from a different nationality, creating an environment of hate for those people.

The need of remembering this tragedy is for all the Haitians that were killed during that time and for the ones who, even though were born in the Dominican Republic, still cannot have their civil rights such as education, health care and legal documentation only because their mother or father are from Haiti.

Border of lights is a movement to remember and grief all those people and also collaborate to bring more justice into this country.
