:History prepares us for the difficulties we will face in life. We can learn from other people's mistakes so when we face the same challenge we will know the right way to act. The same situations happen today that occurred over the past 100 years.  The only differences are the people and their perspective. Almost every war in history is started by jealousy or hatred. The nature of man does not change, only his yearnings.  (Veronika F.)

:There are many benefits to learning and understanding history.  Of course, the saying “Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” comes to mind.  However, I’ve also noticed that the more history we’ve covered, the easier it is for me to understand what’s happening now, especially with the election.  I’ve never understood politics, but it’s much easier now that I know how it started, and how it’s developed.  (Sarah W.)

:The Japanese-American internment camps were not right.  They may not be “unconstitutional”, as in specifically written about in the constitution, but it’s not right for American citizens to be judged for their ancestry.  They couldn’t help that their great grandparents moved from Japan to America.  Most of the people in the internment camps had been in America for generations and had no allegiance to Japan.  America is a land of freedom, but how much freedom do we really have if the government is allowed to just move us at will because of something we didn’t do?  (Sarah W.)
