The movie Hidden Figures did a great job recreating how these three women played a huge role in the space race. Some things that were exaggerated in the movie include the manager beating down the whites only bathroom sign, how long it took the woman to calculate all of the math needed to send a rocket into space, and the woman raising her voice when she was explaining why she is always late. In real life, based on information told by the real life people at the time, it took the woman days to figure out all the calculations needed, not seconds. Also, she likely didn't raise her voice in a workroom filled with white men.

On June 11th President Kennedy said, “This is the end of segregation.” Was it?
I don't think this was the end of segregation. There are still many people who want to keep colored people separate. An example of this is the Black Lives Matter movement. This started because colored people were still not being treated the same as white people. There have been many incidents like this that can prove that when Kennedy said it was the end of segregation, it was not, there is still a lot of work to do.

Let The Children March - Picture Book Explanation

Dr Martin Luther King told the colored community it was time to march. Some children decided they wanted to march because they had nothing to lose. Everyone met at the church to start the march for freedom. Police shouted at the colored people to stop and leave. People were jailed and sprayed with dangerous water. The children were crammed into a jail cell, but they didn't give up hope. People continued to march through the difficulty, and they had finally been heard. They managed to make a difference, change was right around the corner, and desegregation had begun.

In the song "The Times They Are A Changing" one line says, "The present now will later be past". I'm wondering what is the meaning behind this song? When this song was written there was a lot of racism and people were trying to solve this problem, that could be what the song is referring to when it says "The times they are a changing". Based on the lyrics of this song and when it was written, I think that the meaning behind this song is everything will pass eventually and things will change. Nothing is permanent and there is almost always a way a situation can improve. This song was important to the Civil Rights movement because it gave people hope, during trying times it's crucial to have a safe place and this song could give people hope that the times can change for the better, everything will eventually become past and you will move on.

The main style of music in the 1950s was rock and roll. Rock and roll music was raw, compelling, and powerful. Some of the biggest rock and roll stars were Elvis Presley, Chuck Barry, Little Richard, and Buddy Holly. Rock and roll was integrated when American culture was segregated. Blacks and whites played in bands together. Jazz was another music style that started to get big at this time. Jazz music would be played at festivals and parties and nightclubs mostly in black neighborhoods.

The Warsaw Pact was a defense treaty. It is formally known as the Treaty of Friendship. It was made on May 14, 1955 and created a political and military alliance with the Soviet Union and some Eastern European countries. This alliance was made to counterbalance NATO, which is an alliance between the US, Canada, and Western European nations. The Soviet Union ended up controlling most of the Pact's decisions. The Warsaw Treaty Organization, which is another name for the pact, was effected by economic slowdown, changes in member states, and was withdrawn of all of their military exercises. Eventually, by March and July of 1991, the Warsaw Pact officially disbanded following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

The Berlin Airlift- A Pilots Perspective

# data[].attributes.body
The Berlin Airlift was a way to feed and give supplies to people who suffered under Hitler's rule. 1st Lt. Gail Halvorsen was a pilot who worked around the clock, he delivered a total of 126 missions from July 1948 to February 1949. This is when Stalin started to take over. In the time that Halvorsen worked, he realized that "service before self" caused the enemy to become your friend. Halvorsen was nicknamed "The Candy Bomber" because he would drop candy bars to children from the skies. The children taught him about freedom. Later on, more men started to take Halvorsen and drop candy to the kids. They really became a light in these childrens lifes and some kids even wrote letters to the pilots.
