February 3, 2011

Today was student appreciation day at John Carroll!  My western civilization teacher brought in cookies for everyone then continued to make fun of me for showing dogs, ha-ha.  After this, we finished watching Guns, Germs and Steel.  In this movie I learned that despite having some of the most nutritious crops on the planet, the Fertile Crescent’s climate was too dry to continue the intensive farming, which was occurring.  To sum up Diamond’s conclusion, he believes that the world has been split into haves and have not’s due to their region they’ve been put into, in the world.
