We continued presenting our song projects and took notes about the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Berlin Wall, and the Korean War (my topic).
Cuban Missile Crisis
- Soviet missiles in Cuba
- 13 day crisis
- averted when Soviets agreed to remove missiles from Cuba and America removed missiles from Turkey
Berlin Wall
- 1961: Berlin wall built
- Designed to keep communists in
- Stayed up for 28 years- symbol of the Cold War
- Free/democratics on one side; control/communist on other side
- Fell in 1989
- Mikhail Gerbachev
