I definitely relate to the struggle of narrowing down the scope! My project explores pre-internet Black life in comparison to modern Black life, and there is so much time between those points, so it's hard to know where to narrow in. Breadth vs depth is such a great way to frame this, and I'm sure that with more work with our librarians, it'll be easier to find converging ideas to make deeper points with a variety of sources.
