History - November 2007

Many think that without Gandhi India would have still been a colony. An idea which I completely disagree with. In India the education system has a vociferously pro-left bias. It only teaches one part of history while completely ignoring the other part. That is why many Indians have a completely distorted and innacurate understanding of their own history. Any textbooks that are remotely critical of Gandhi or of the mughal oppressors (who were responsible for the largest genocide in the entire history of human civilisation - the murder of 100 million hindus across the tenure of mughal oppression) are not even permitted.

The leftists have brainwashed Indians with the belief that it was Gandhi's mobilisation of public support that caused the UK to reliquish India. However the real reason was that the UK had just come out of WW2 and it's economy was in tatters. The entire city of London lay burning in ruins and the UK could no longer afford to keep India even if it had wanted to.

i was thinking about writing about the roundheads or the cavaliers but i honestly have no idea what kind of story line to write about.

please, any ideas are amazing.

Ok, I have a debate in Social Studies class on Monday (2 days) it is 50% of my grade. The debate is about if the Umatilla tribe should get the Kennewick Man's body, or if the scientists should get it. My teacher did a drawing for what side I would be on. I am on the con side, (meaning I am against the Umatilla tribe getting the Kennewick Man). If you know anything about him or this subject that could help, please tell me ASAP!!! I REALLY need help!!
