Life Under a Totalitarian Regime

In today's class we finished the powerpoint - Road to War (see Tuesday's post to download), and the notes on the 5 causes of WWII.  We also watched a video clip of the movie Schindler's List to understand what life might have been like under a totalitarian dictatorship.  We then did a brief examination of the 5 key dictators during the inter-war period. The assignment is HERE, and then for HOMEWORK, please do the following.

HOMEWORK: Choose a dictator that gained power during the 'inter-war period' - 1920s/1930s to study in more detail.  Due on Friday
  • Take a look at a minimum of two different sites for information...feel free to do your own exploring as well. 
  • Record 5-10 points about the dictator on a piece of paper (can be handwritten or typed)
  • Find a picture/image or quote that you believe to be very powerful and bring the notes and the image/picture to class next day.
