week 5: 2
Hello to principals around the world,
My concern is that all around the world school teachers are denying some things that happen in history because they feel as if it is unimportant or maybe unnessacary. My feelings towards that is,coming from a history teacher that teaches everything that has happened in history I feel its important to learn stuff that has to deal with the Rape of Nanking because that was a big thing back in the day that happened. Many students have no idea what that even was. Some never heard about it. The rape of nanking has to deal with the Japanesse and them "breaking people down" until they die a long painful death . Dr congo which one another problem we had during the years. It was when the men would make their sons rape people or the men would rape women. Most students should be able to be mature enough to take it serious, and we will always have the ones who find it funny. Stuff that is that big in history made us what we are today. I think its extremely important to know what has happened especially when it was that serious.
