WORLD HISTORY DeBATE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg5dxKGlprA&feature=youtu.be

Good thing this debate is also posted on Daphne's page, as this is set to "private" so I can't listen to it!

Yes I do think it was right for the allies to try only Nazi and Japanese leaders for war crimes because they were the top two countries who did an awful large amount of war to the world. They both were a huge impact to WW2 however the Nazi's did a whole lot more devastation to the war than Japan did. Because the Nazi's were full of dictatorship i think that they didn't make the brightest decision because they followed the orders of one man. That man is Hitler. Because of Hitler the Nazi's started something called the Holocaust. There are people in the world who don't believe that the Holocaust never happened but there are also many people who DO believe that it is. The reason why the Japanese leaders were a big impact in war crimes is because of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Because of the sudden bombing of Pearl Harbor many innocent japanese americans had to go to concentration camps but not the ones they had in Germany this was a different type of camp. The Japanese did send friendship bracelets to the USA to show that they were friends before they bombed Pearl Harbor.

I was sad and angry....very very angry when the twins were taken to the camp for experiments. They are people just like you and me but the were used for experiments and treated like animals. Other women who were in the Holocaust but survived were happy to be alive but sad because due to experiments they cant have children of their own.
 * The Holocaust**
 * Twins**

When the Germans took the two brothers and one ran away they took the other brother and beated him up until he would tell where his brother is. Who could do that do a small boy. beat him up like an animal and just not care. he was smaller weaker and more vulnerable.It was very cruel what they did to the little boy.
 * Brothers**

He was abit lucky to be in a labor camp instead of a death camp. But he still had it hard because he was forced to work everyday with harsh soldier who would bull the people until they wanted to die.
 * Mordechai Eldar**

This was mainly about showing how much the Germans made the people suffer. I cant believe that what the Germans did was really for the good of other people and I makes me wonder what is going on in their head while they are doing their horrible deeds.
 * Zanne Farbstein**

His story also touched my heart about how sad it was. It made me sad to see his guild of not giving his brother a Christmas cake or the other troubles that he's been through all his life. It made we sad to feel his guilt, pain, sadness.
 * Yaakov Hollander**

I couldnt' believe what she had to do for a living. She had to bury DEAD BODIES FOR HER JOB. Can you imagine how much truama she must have endured to bury the dead bodies as a girl. Its sadder that she lsot her whole family in the war and she has no one to help or support her. Im glad that now she is helping other children by being a midwife she turned her life around into a new happy one.
 * Sophie Engelsman**

She was a little girl who was tranfered from camp to camps in cars such as cattle cars which were for CATTLE AND NOT HUMANS. it makes me mad and angry that a little girl has to go through so much pain at such a young age. She must have been in s o much pain.
 * Eva Brown**

- Losing one aircraft compared to the Japanese who lost 3 was a big help as well - It let the America's get closer to Japan. -They helped by giving resources such as air fields. -This was another big influence for the America to stop the war with Japan. - the bombing stopped the war because the Japanese stopped fighting back because of how much they lost after the bombs.

You tend to repeat yourself and circle back so that your presentation has poor logical flow. Germany and Austria are not "parts of the country [U.S.]"! Vague statements like "around the 1900s" doesn't show me that you know when the Great Depression happened. (1918-1939). 6/10

Station 1
Read the "Chapter in Brief" section on "Postwar Uncertainty" and "A Worldwide Depression" and annotate focusing on the underlying problems in the US and world economy which CAUSED the Depression AND how different countries attempted to SOLVE the problems. Create an organizer for your information (digital or hard copy).

=__//**The Great Depression**//__= - The Economy started to go down - New Idea's were thought of - Art and Music was starting to increase - Too many political parties in the Nations - WW1 was a huge impact - Germany used American Bank loans - Britain used new government laws - Sweden/Norway/Denmark the government put taxes onto the people.

Station 2
Look at this [|Photo Essay on the Great Depression], carefully reading the captions and examining the images. Talk about what you see as a group, then write 2 newspaper headlines, one from the //International Herald Tribune//, and one from the //New York Times// might run __if these pictures were taken today__. Think about how headlines use strong, attention-getting words. Once you have your headlines, write the thesis statement and three paragraph topic sentences for each article (i.e. what's the main point, and what are 3 points that support that thesis).

//International Herald Tribune// The Thesis Statement: The Great depression destroyed many people Topic Sentence 1: Hitler was able to be in charge Topic Sentence 2: Job's were running out Topic Sentence 3: Money and food was running out
 * Death to Us of the Great Depression**

//New York Times// The Thesis Statement: The people were starting to change and desperate for money they were being madmen Topic Sentence 1: People started not to care about other's Topic Sentence 2: It affected many other countries Topic Sentence 3: The Great depression had killed many of the population.
 * Madmen around the corner: What has the Depression done to us?**

**Station 3**
Watch these short videos and take notes.

[|29 Minute Overview] [|A teacher's summary, with an international focus](no need to watch the summary) and this [|documentary] (you can start from 0:40 and watch to the end)

Your articles were supposed to be set in MODERN time, so it should be in the PRESENT tense. Did you take notes? Good thing I wasn't grading the notes? Your "organizer" is just a list of notes -- not an organizer at all. 5/10

 * ORAL QUIZ # 1**

"The people who worked in the war" were not "above" the "nobles". The explanation of the Russian social structure is over-simplified, and you really don't get around to discussing the Revolution! 5/10 Remember how I asked you never to use your full name on the wiki?

Read the "Chapter in Brief" section on the Russian Revolution and then explain, on your gallery page, why Russia had a revolution in 1917. The reason for why russia had a revolution was because the upper class people were getting wealthier and more powerful every day, however, the number of people who did not make a profit and were unemployed grew everyday. The upper class people were getting unfair privileges above the working class people. explain whether Stalin was a good guy or a bad guy, and why. I believe that Stalin was a bad guy because he was one of the most powerful dictators of his time. Stalin was in charge of the Soviet Union and during his time he had killed millions of people. Stalin didn’t even include industrialization apart of his plan which would have saved many people. 1. What is the message that this poster is trying to get out to the Russian people? I chose the poster with the layer’s of people on top of one another. I think that the message that this poster is trying to get out to the Russian people is to let people know who are the leaders and who are below them. It was showing the hard levels of class and showing how miserable one life can be and another so divine. By the structure the people are in it is showing who is closer to the ground and who is higher. The peasants are on the floor trying to lift up the people while as the tower of power goes higher less people are working harder.
 * Station 1) Overview of Russian Revolution**
 * Station 2) Primary and Secondary Sources: Video**
 * Station 3) Tools to Persuade and Motivate- Propaganda**

Hmm.. You haven't really done what your were asked (podcast, make a propaganda poster).


 * How did the Treaty of Versailles reflect the different personalities and agendas of the men in power at the end of World War 1?**

Germany was the one that was the most active in WW1 and France demanded lots of things from them. France's true personality showed because they wanted lots of unreasonable things. Japan was like one of the outsiders in the Allies because they didn't get a lot of land that was divided. One other important thing that really stood out was the US acted kind of selfish.

LATE WORK

WHITE MAN'S BURDEN

1) What is “The White Man’s Burden” based on Rudyard Kipling’s description in this poem? In Kipling’s poem, “The White Man’s Burden” based on Rudyard Kipling’s description is describing the work white men are taking over countries that are of different race, they also plan to control. The reason why it is called “The White Man’s BURDEN” is because there was a burden for the countries that were controlled. The countries didn’t like how the white men were changing them. They wanted to be left alone and not be poked and prodded by the white men.

2) Do you agree or disagree with Kipling’s characterization? Why or why not? I disagree to Kipling’s characterization of “The White Man”, because I do not agree with the way that the nations that are full of power and money are trying to increase their power by taking over countries. The wealthy nations are tricking the people and saying that it is for their own benefits but however this is not the case. They are doing it for themselves so that they can gain the money.

3) What does this say about the attitude of Europeans and Americans toward the rest of the world during the mid 1800 - early 1900’s? Use specific examples from the poem. This says a lot about the attitude of Europeans and Americans towards the rest of the world during the mid 1800 - early 1900's because the Europeans and Americans said that they were doing what was best for their people, and trying to change the uncivilized people to the civilized. In the poem it states that the Europeans and Americans gain profit from their people by telling them its for their own good.

4) Is KIS an example of “The White Man’s Burden” in modern Korean society? Why or why not? KIS is an example of “The White Man’s Burden” in modern Korean society because, many students in KIS are not from Korea and KIS has different teaching methods from other types of school. And many people do not like the idea of foriegn schools because it is changing the learning curve in Korea.

Document-Based Question: Do Darwin’s theories apply to culture and society? Why or why not? Use the excerpts above and strong examples to support your points.
Darwin's theories do apply to culture and society because Darwin is mostly known for a man who studied natural selection. If you study natural selection you know that its about the living style of animals. It involves survival of the fittest and competition. Darwin's theory both include the term imperialism because the imperialism that occurred within other countries that had their own religion and beliefs and other traditions that were built up over time was starting to fight to exist because new things were coming in and old things were starting to come out. Having to fight to stay alive in history is showing that people are starting to care less about that part of history. Darwin also mentions survival of the fittest where the strongest of the pack gets to mate with the most and gets to have the most offspring but this usually happens when. The people who do want to keep their old traditions and cultures are like the big preys who are trying to eat the food that is slowing disappearing trying to save something that is slowly going away.

I'm not sure what you mean by "Darwin's theory both include the term imperialism..." Darwin did not use the term. I also don't understand your point about "people are starting to care less about that part of history"? Generally this is confused and incoherent. You need to consider that Darwin's ideas were used to JUSTIFY imperialism, without his knowledge or approval. Since we now view imperialism as a bad thing, doesn't that mean you need to look at this justification with a more critical eye? In other words, we are NOT convinced by the argument that human society is just like animal selection -- "survival of the fittest" is NOT a good rule for humans to live by, since it's corollary is that weaker individuals, groups, societies and nations will, and ought to, become extinct!

1) They would disagree with the effects of industrialization because Andrew Carnegie is voiced as a factory owner but Engels is described as a poor member of a working class. That is why they would not agree on the effects because they are going through different things in life. They dont know what the other has to go through.

2) The reasons for 16 year old Mary Paul's satisfaction with her job and life in Lowell are because when women's rights weren't said out loud and people did not understand it very much they were in much harsher conditions in life. They had forced labor, low pay, abuse, and etc. However now they have improved.

3) The political cartoon by Walter Crane be useful in getting workers to rally to the cause of socialism because the vampire bat which i think is representing capitalism is attacking the worker without any worries and that is showing that the worker is going through harsh labor and no one care about them.However the angel is representing socialism is coming to save the worker. The end result is saying that the workers will be better off with having socialism in their life because without it, it will make their work life a living hell.

While a manager IS a member of the "working class" (or proletariat), he is not "poor". Don't confuse class with wealth. Your response to #2 is unclear. What do women's rights have to do with Mary speaking glowingly of her working conditions? You KNOW that working in a textile mill was not as great as she seems to be saying. Might the fact that she was writing to her parents have something to do with this? The last sentence of your answer is off-topic. For number 3, please do not use "i" -- it's text English and not appropriate for academic writing. Otherwise this answer is good.

Sentence
I feel that there is bravery in this poem. I feel that the people have suffered a lot of pain within the lines.

Impact of Nationalism

Using the table above, explain the characteristics of each type of Nationalistic movement in your own words.// - Unification: They way the politics happen maybe be different, however whatever happens the land will be the same
 * Positive Results || Negative Results ||
 * - Felt love for their country

//-// Separation: People with different cultures that are put together but fight with each other and break apart

- State-building: People with different Cultures that come together and unite.

//2. What do you think would have happened empires (e.g. Austrian Empire, Ottoman Empire) during the rise of nationalism?// - I think that the countries that could bond together and get past their differences would unite, but the countries will have some separation because they are too different and have different ideas on the world.

__**Key Skill: Analyzing Political Cartoons**__ 1) The symbol is a shoe that the "king" is putting on his leg. 2) Garibaldi is portrayed as a king who looks to be snooty and needs someone to help him put on his shoe. 3) The title says that the cartoonist is happy with the idea that Italy is unified.

__**CASE STUDY: Germany**__

1) flow chart

2) a) The land of Prussia is very unusual because it seems like it is cut in half by the nations that either took over them or united with them. b) After that year the biggest Prussia has ever been was 1871.

3)

The National Symbol for Germany at the time was an eagle. The eagle in the center was the design that military soldier would have on their uniforms. The gold that is surrounding the eagle with the gold crown I think is saying that Germany is superior said by the king. The 3 colored flag behind the eagle was the long time ago flag that represented Germany. Surrounding the whole photo is the color yellow which is symbolizing the national color of the present Germany. This photo represents both the past of Germany and the present of Germany now.

But WHY is yellow the "national color" now? You can't design a symbol of the newly united Germany (in 1871) using things that have meaning now but didn't then.

Cartoon analysis needs for thoughtful consideration of the things you see and what they mean. Answers are quite superficial.

= = =Case Study= Terms and Names 1) Sepoys were Indian soldiers and they would fight along with the British because they were under control of them. 2) Sepoy Mutiny was a turning point for the British rule in India, the British directed rule of India. 3) Congress Party were more worried about how Indians were being treated compared to the white men. 4) Mohandas K. Gandhi brought nationalistic ideas to the people of India. 5) Muhammad Ali Jinnah was the man who turned the Muslim League into a political party.

Main Ideas 1) The Four factors that contributed to Britain's conquest of India are their better weaponry. Britain had better trained soldiers and were well experienced compared to the Indian soldiers who were poorly prepared. The British also had more money to use for wars and weaponry or to spend them on their soldiers. The British also had more modern weaponry compared to the Indians which helped them take control of it. Then the British were a well colonized country and India was not so the British took advantage of that.

2)The cause of the Sepoy Mutiny was the British wouldn’t respect the hindu or Muslim people’s religion and sent them to jail for mutiny. The main result of it was that the British use the East India Company to take over the parts of India.

3)The groups Muslim League and the Congress Party promoted the Indian independence with Ideas that they had within.

4) The Four general principles of Gandhi’s philosophy were a) Live simply as possible, never striving for material reward. b) Be tolerant of the religious beliefs of others. c) Devote one’s life to the service of others. d) Battle injustice in all its forms, but never by resorting to violence.

5) The role that Jinnah played in the partition of India was the peace maker. He tried to unite the Hindus and the Muslims but failed to do so. But later on Jinnah was one of the main reasons India split in half.

Document Questions 6) Pro-British : B, C, E, I, J, K Pro-Indian : A, D, F, G, H, L

7) The Indians in the lowest levels of their society benefit from India's constitution as stated in Document H because it is said that there should be equality of opportunity for ALL citizens in matters relating to employment. There was no difference between rich and poor, everyone could get a job.

8) The British colonization would have a lasting impact on the people of India by having good and bad traits about them. The British would do good things for India such as teaching them how to be more organized or teach them about better weaponry and modern equality. The bad traits about the British is that they didn’t care about the Indian’s religion and didn’t respect them.

Critical Thinking 9) The British didn’t understand or care for the Indian’s religion. Hinduism and Muslims do not eat pork or pig however in one case the Indian soldiers had to bite of the cartilage of either of them to be able to shoot their gun. The Muslims refused to touch the bone and were sent to prison for mutiny even though all they were doing was to protect their religion.

10) The positive effects of the British rule is that the Indian’s got to learn and become more advanced and modern from the British. The negative effect of the British rule is that the British didn’t respect the Indian’s religion and would throw them into jail for not fighting.

11) Gandhi’s four general principles were effective in dealing with a much more powerful Great Britain because it helped the people to realize that being together and helping each other out was the key to get rid of the British without any bloodshed. It helped the people of India come together.

12) Muslims demanded a separate nation because they wanted more attention and realization from the people. It broke out into four separate nations because there were a lot of disagreements between the Congress Party and the Muslim League.

13) Because there was a lot of fighting there was a war. This war caused India to split into two different nations. After India split in twos’ Pakistan was divided as well and then Ceylon was decreed free from Sri Lanka.

 * The Four Questions**

1) Would Marx have agree that these countries were "communist"? - No Marx would not have agreed that these countries were "communist" because Marx's believed that communism was a system of no social classes and equality. Which ment that everyone in the community would have to be equal. There would be no poor people or rich people, and no line. And there would be no government because everyone was equal.

2) What has happened to the "communist" world (once called the "Second World", to distinguish it from the "First World" -- wealthy capitalist countries, and the "Third World" -- poor countries)? - I think that the "communist" world died out and become extinct because it did not go as plan and it did not evolve to other parts of the world.

3) Why do you think this has happened? - This happened because Marx believed that there were three stages that a community needs to go through which are feudalism, capitalists, and communism. Communist ; everyone thinks in a different way and that made conflict within the people. Many countries became communist countries but they later changed back to capitalist because of that reason.

4) What do you think of the idea that the growing gap between the rich and poor in the industrialized world never materialized (see p. 270) because of the Union movement (the formation of trades unions who unite to demand better working conditions for workers) and reform laws (to improve conditions for workers, eg. safety requirements, limits on the length of the working day, minimum wages)?
 * -** I think that the gap inbetween the rich and the poor decreased because without the industrialized world there wouldn't be a huge distinction and because there would be less people desperate for money and work for a lesser rate while the rich would pay at the lowest amount they would be allowed.

The one thing that I have learned from the book is that child labor was seemed to be common way back then for the poor and people who needed more money. The kids would start at a very young age and were not allowed to have the free time that we are allowed to have now. The students didn't have a really childhood because back then they were considered to be adults as soon as they could work. Girls would work by sewing or work in factories. Some boys would go outside bare foot and sell matches. There were many jobs suitable for young children such as textiles or glass works.
 * The Paragraph of Industrial revolution:**


 * The Textbook Question:**

The Industrial Revolution, and the urbanization that accompanied it, have been described as a mixed blessing. To what extent to you agree with this statement?
 * - In the industrial revolution there were many mixed blessings. Mixed blessings mean that there are many advantages and disadvantages. I think that the industrial revolution had just advantages because it grew the economic world. And the world has changed into a more modern version and the industrial revolution made it much easier for the world to work.**

 * The Congress of Vienna 2 questions**

The Napoleon empire's collapsed because It wanted to weaken the Power of the British, but his attempts led to the empire collapse. Then the second reason why Napoleon's empire collapse is because of nepotism. Napoleon let his brother be king of Spain and this made the country very unhappy. Then Napoleon tried to rule over Russia and because of Russia's culture and weather Napoleon failed.
 * 4. Why did Napoleon's empire collapse?**

The goals of the Congress of Vienna were not to control or attack any other countries anymore, then spread the power of the countries in Europe. Then the third goal is to put Kings back into their thrones.
 * 5. What were the goals of the Congress of Vienna?**

The reason why I chose the quote You can kill a revolutionary but you can never kill the revolution. By Fred Hampton is because a revolution is build up of many different revolutionaries and killing one will not discourage the rest of them to back down from what they believe in.

Port 4 The Bald Rat was Toyotomie Yitiyoshi and he saved Japan from going downward. Japan wanted to build its empire inside China. Japan was invading Korea to try to go to china but Korea's turtle ships stroke back and won the war. Japan couldn't go to China they way they planned. They didn't even try to start again because Itiyoshi wanted to make his son his successor.
 * 1) Who was "the Bald Rat"?**

 * 3) What stopped it from building its empire as planned?**

Idea's of the Photos

 * ChinaZhengHeShip1405vsSantaMaria500pxw.jpg** :I think that The Santa Maria was very very small compared to the Chinese Treasure Ship.
 * europe_1400.jpg** : I thought of how different and evolved we've become now and how we changed some names of the countries and discovered new countries.
 * Territories_of_Dynasties_in_China.gif** : I thought of how each Dynasties had more land than the other. Each Dynasty had more land and increased China's population. I also thought of how there were more than one dynasty in one year.
 * mapSilkRoad.gif** : I think that it was amazing how the people of different countries got together in one place to trade goods.
 * European_city_populations** : It shocked me of how much the population was increasing, and spreading more around Europe.
 * Beijing_city_wall_map.jpg** : In one part of land there were many temples and shrines to praise the gods.
 * beijing-map-overview.gif** : It showed how much China has changed over the year and has taken out old ways to put in the new.
 * great_wall_map1.pn**g : It showed how evolved the Chinese were for thinking to build a wall to protect their city. And having the wall to be the largest in the world.

The Comparisons Of the Maps (Questions for 1421)
The Santa Maria was very small and short compared to China's ships. The Santa Maria was considered to be a big ship to the Europeans but they didn't know that the Chinese had bigger and better version of ships than they do. the Santa Maria isn't even half of the Chinese Treasure Ship. It shows that the Chinese were more advanced in building ships than the Europeans were.
 * 1) Compare with the Santa Maria (Columbus' vessel), which was 150 ft long and a mere 20 ft wide.**

The Holy Roman Emperor would have come from Kingdom of Portugal, Kingdom of Castile, Kingdom of England, and Kingdom of France if they had been invited to Beijing on 2 February 1421. They would have to take ships to get across the waters because going on land would take too long and be terrible.
 * 2) Identify where "the Holy Roman Emperor, the Emperor of Byzantium (also called Constantinople), the Doge (ruler) of Venice, and the kings of England, France, Castille and Portugal" would have come from had they been invited to Beijing on 2 February 1421.**

The silk road was a trading center that was located on seas and land. Now days the silk road for modern countries is located through were Asia, India, Europe, and many other Mediterranean countries.
 * 3) Through what MODERN countries did the silk roads go?**

If the wall really extended 6,400 kms due west of Beijing, I would end up either near Mongolia or the countries that surround Mongolia. Because the Wall ends close to where Mongolia is located at if the wall was to stretch and increase in length it will end up close to Mongolia or anywhere near Mongolia.
 * 4) Estimate where you would end up if the wall really extended 6,400 kms due west of Beijing.**

The differences between the two maps is that the modern map contains much more detail and much more roads or buildings than the original map. The modern map is much more complicated than the original. The original map is more focused onto the temples and the modern map is more focused onto the roads and department stores. The orginal map was more focused onto the spiritual buildings which were considered more important at that time and the modern map consist of more roads, shopping malls, lakes, university. Many of the buildings on the modern map did not exist in the original map. The conclusion is that each map consists more of what was important during that time.
 * 5) Compare this map of the great walled capital Zhu Di built, to this map of modern China. The Forbidden City is now the Palace Museum, and is located at the centre of the map below:**

**Homework**
I see an older man and a younger man gazing upon each other. I think that this painting is interesting because the older man is surrounded by people. I wonder why they are almost touching fingers but are not touching fingers.

The two conclusions
The Spread of Islam

1) Umayyad Caliphate had conquered and spread the most. 2)The Kingdom of Longbards conquered and spread the least.

- What is happening to Hogsflesh is that there was a general shift in the religious beliefs and it was suggested that he was an unlucky man and caught out because he suggested how he felt about the region too early and the people or church were still arguing about the matters. When he first suggested it everyone at the church was appalled. The historians “story” or main point of the article is saying that he went against what he believes for a long time.
 * In section 1, Heretical Beliefs, the historian gives his account of a historical event. What is happening to Hogsflesh? What is the historian's “story” or main point of the article?**

Not the main point of the article.

- The roles of historian that was defined by John Arnold are fashion, story teller. I agree with his assumptions. I can think that historians would also be a researcher.
 * What are the roles of a historian defined by John Arnold? Do you agree or disagree with his assumptions? Can you think of any other roles?**

A historian is "fashion"? You have missed many of the NINE roles Arnold identifies.

- “Treat(ing) their sources with fidelity” means that historians are not lying with their reference, no matter what the historians think, they will always agree with the source.
 * What is meant by “treat(ing) their sources with fidelity?” Remember to put your response in your own words. Why is it important to remember this when reading historical references?**

Will they "always agree" with the source?

- A single even can be interpreted in more than one way because many people think of different reasons of one even. I think historians could interpret with differing points of view based on what they think.
 * How can a single event be interpreted in more than one way? Can you think of an event in your life that historians could interpret with differing points of view?**

Have you referred to "an event in your life"?

-
 * Talk to a family member or friend about something that happened to you both a long time ago. Examine how you both remember the incident and write about it. With that in mind, when attaching meaning to history, is it possible for a historian to be completely objective? Use examples from the incident you just discussed to reinforce your response.**

Incomplete.

-
 * What problems may arise when historians practice subjective history? In what ways may subjective history be beneficial to the study of history? Think back to the incident you just discussed with your family member or friend. Why did it make sense for you to remember the event the way you did and for the other person to remember it the way he or she did? What does this tell us about history?**

Incomplete.

- Historians are story tellers because they tell us the stories of the past. I think we can trust historians because they will tell us the truth no matter how much they disagree with it.
 * Why is every historian "a storyteller?" If all historians are storytellers and there are myriad versions of every story, can we trust historians? Why or why not?**

Good answer.

- My views of history and historians changed based on this reading because
 * How did your view of history and historians change based on this reading? How will you approach history now that you have explored these views?**

Incomplete.
