Blog # 22 - Should we follow the leader?
1) Identify which political leader you have been learning about
2) Pretend you are that leader writing a letter to a newspaper in the year 1929. From the perspective of that leader, explain why war is an acceptable thing to do or not acceptable. Be sure to use some of the vocabulary you've learned!
3) Respond to another leader's letter from the perspective of your own leader. For example, if you have been learning about Hitler then you can respond to Gandhi or Mussolini.
