We continued discussing the issue of nuclear weapons today as our opening to some conversations about the Cold War.  After reading and debriefing an essay by George Orwell on atomic weapons, we explored briefly the causes of the Cold War then proceeded to examine some opposing views on domestic and international policies through our DocBlock Lit Circle on the voices of the Cold War.  We ended the day with some very brief stations on Cold War actions taken by the US.

Tomorrow, Chapter Readings # 3 are due as we move to talking about the Civil Rights era.
