  1. Today we began our semester learning about the Shoah (Holocaust). We began by looking at 200 years of leadership, both benevolent and despotic. We discussed different types of government and what they mean. We talked about whether a leader is important in general and to the populace. Then we talked about why we would start the semester this way. Mankind has a history of tyrants and of benevolent rulers. Their actions have caused pain and death, but also peace and security. It is important that we pay attention to what rulers are doing, if you are in a democracy, who is running for office, and how their actions will impact our society. What a great and active conversation!
