Answer:    In 1945, Paul Pappas was one of the US Marines who entered Nagasaki shortly after the United States dropped an atomic bomb on the city. Today, in his nineties, he is a committed pacifist who can often be found speaking with the teens in his neighborhood about the evils of war. Paul made the comments below to a gathering at Bellvale Bruderhof in Chester, New York, where he is a member, after reading the story of George Zabelka, the army chaplain who blessed the bombers of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Why are slave revolts and rebellions kept out<br> of standard American history textbooks?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

The event was the brainchild of performance artist Dread Scott. Largely overlooked in history books, protesters were brave souls who should be seen as a source of inspiration and dignity for those fighting against modern-day oppression, Scott said.

Explanation:

Ultimately, the rebels did not succeed in abolishing slavery during their time. But rather than end with violence, the reenactment closed with an alternate, more uplifting ending - the defeat of white militia men and a cultural celebration.
