Japan - The Latest
Although the news coverage of the events in Japan have dwindled slightly over the past few days. The far reaching effects and devastation continue to grow. Specifically in the inability to stop radiation leaks.
Check out the article to keep yourself current on the world changing effects in Japan. Similar to our studying of 9/11 this event may alter the course of world history drastically.
Suggest some predictions of how this event may change the world? or argue that it indeed will not.
perhaps being fully informed will make it more meaningful and important to donate a few dollars to support relief efforts.

Should parents be standing guard around stores that sell junk food to children?
Do Principals have the right to ask store owners not to sell candy to kids?
Can you make any connections to equality and systemic racism?
