Trump banned refugees from entering the country for 120 days and immigrants from Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen and Somalia for three months. Many people came to airports across the country to protest. Leaders from other countries are against his ban and some have contacted him to tell him. People have accused Trump of discriminatory actions, but he said those countries were deemed "countries of concern" for terrorism.
Trump said that he has compassion for those who are fleeing oppression, but his first priority is to keep the nation safe. I think that this is a very controversial topic, but I think it's interesting how many people have spoken against it. Some people seem to be more against Trump than they are about his ideas. In the picture above you can barely tell what they are protesting about because they are just against Trump. I think in history people focused more on the the ideas of the people than being against the person.

In World War II, since all of the men were out fighting in the war, the women started to work more. Women started to work in factories and build weapons and airplanes for the war. This seems like it wasn't that important, but each woman individually worked and contributed to the war. They seem to not have that big of an impact, and we don't hear about them as much. They found two names written on the inside of a wing on a P-47 Thunderbolt by AirCorps Aviation. The names were Eva and Edith. They don't know who these women are, but they are trying to figure out who they are and where they are from. I think that it is interesting that they found this on the airplane. These women had their own lives that they were going through. Something that happened years ago is now a think of discussion today. They probably didn't think that people would be talking about them over 70 years later. It's cool how we are still so connected to history.
History Everything in history is connected to us. Something from this long ago shows up to show the lives of people that mattered. History to Future I think that it is important to write everything down and keep things documented. One day everything we are experiencing now will be in history books or it will be a mystery to people.
I think that it is crazy that something like this would happen. There are so many rules and regulations for passing inspections on building where we live that nothing like this really happens. Even though long inspections can be frustrating, they do prevent things like this from happening. It doesn't seem like there were that many building malfunctions in history. I think that this is because we do everything so quickly now that the quality isn't always as good. People begin to be more negligent which put people in harms way. |
