Week Two History

The Decision to Drop the Bomb

The incident of dropping the bomb on Hiroshima was more than just a disastrous event in history; it took millions of lives and changed the environment of the state. It resulted in an economic crisis, hunger, and a threat to other habitats in the environment. Dropping the bomb was totally against human rights because taking the lives of millions of people is a violation of the law and a misuse of power. The radiation from these bombs caused health-related issues and the coming generation was born with many defects ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"mHxGXhPJ","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Lytle & Davidson, 2009)","plainCitation":"(Lytle & Davidson, 2009)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":607,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/KVZQ425P"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/KVZQ425P"],"itemData":{"id":607,"type":"book","ISBN":"978-0-07-729268-3","publisher":"McGraw-Hill Education","title":"After the Fact: The Art of Historical Detection","URL":"https://books.google.com.pk/books?id=OBD5vQEACAAJ","author":[{"family":"Lytle","given":"M.

The third parties have only two roles: either benefit from or support the existing parties in retaliation. One of the beliefs of the third parties was that this act will end the bitterness of Japan towards the United States. However, in reality, it increased the bitterness between each other.

Sitting-In

In the United States, one of the common social issues that have existed in the past is considered the racial discrimination that Black people have faced. Sitting-in is considered to be one of the non-violent protests for civil rights in history. It resulted in getting attention from the media through non-violent means. These protests were held to end racial segregation in the Southern parts of the United States. As a result of this protest, Black people were able to get opportunities and they were able to bring a cultural revolution. Slavery was another common issue that existed in the American society and this resulted in class systems and discriminatory behaviors towards people of color ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"mHxGXhPJ","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Lytle & Davidson, 2009)","plainCitation":"(Lytle & Davidson, 2009)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":607,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/KVZQ425P"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/smYQhi21/items/KVZQ425P"],"itemData":{"id":607,"type":"book","ISBN":"978-0-07-729268-3","publisher":"McGraw-Hill Education","title":"After the Fact: The Art of Historical Detection","URL":"https://books.google.com.pk/books?id=OBD5vQEACAAJ","author":[{"family":"Lytle","given":"M.

A number of Black people were enslaved; they were even physically tortured to make them work in the factories of the elite class who were mostly White people. Torture, be it physical or psychological, is against an individual’s rights because it threatens his safety and life.
