As a social studies teacher, I feel its my duty to allow my students to have a voice in a democratic society. This is a student proposal: Dear president Obama, I’m writing this letter to convince you to act when the warning signs of a genocide are apparent anywhere in the world. I am convinced that you can stop genocides. First, we all know that genocides have conditions that are similar these include mass deaths, majority picking on minority, leaders make plans plus propaganda to convince public, bad economy, and also political instability. Second, some things I think we could do to stop genocides are threaten military action, create a positive media influence, start a trade embargo, and establish a peacekeeping force that arrests the leaders who perpetrate genocide. Thank you.
