Wednesday-5/30/18:

  • Bell Work-1.) In your own words can you describe what happened in Vietnam that led to the growing conflict President Johnson is discussing? 2.) Imagine that you are a member of President Johnson’s National Security Council. What are two or three questions that you might ask prior to voting on whether or not to escalate America’s involvement in the Vietnam War? 3.) Think about President Johnson’s statement justifying America’s continued involvement in the Vietnam War. In his speech at Johns Hopkins University he said “Since 1954 every American President has offered support to the people of South Viet-Nam…And I intend to keep that promise”. Do you feel that is a strong enough justification or one that needs to be rethought and strengthened?
