Today we took a virtual tour of a site that Kaitlin will be visiting this summer. We looked at how the museum teaches us to remember the events of April 19, 1995. Visitors will get the first-person perspective with tours and talks led by those who lived this story: family members, survivors, first responders and more. It should be a very meaningful experience for Kaitlin.
Kaitlin is going to be visiting the Oklahoma City Memorial Museum this summer and has expressed an interest in learning about that event. Today was an intro. to that morning, a typical work and school day on April 15, 1995. The Oklahoma City bombing was a domestic terrorist truck bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, It was the deadliest act of terrorism in U.S. history until the September 11 attacks in 2001. It remains the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history, and the second-deadliest overall. We will be taking a virtual tour and learning more as we explore the OK City Museum Memorial online.
Understanding How Zelenskyy Became President of Ukraine
Lesson Outline
In this final episode of "Servant of the People," in 2018, we see how Zelenskyy's character, President Goloborodko comes back into office, the dignity he brings to the presidency, his commitment to democracy and how he unites the Ukrainian people. Kaitlin has a deeper understanding of how a political party, named "Servant of the People," was created in Ukraine after this show and how Zelenslyy reluctantly agreed to be its candidate. Hence, fiction really did impact real life, Ukrainian and world history.
In the 2nd to last episode, we see that new leadership in Ukraine brings radical changes that upset the oligarchs. Goloborodko's (Zelenskyy's) team continues to advocate for changes and his return to power. And they are successful. What will President Goloborodko do to restore a fractured national government?
