Atomic Bomb

I think that this video's main purpose was to show that the U.S. is remorseful about harming so many people. The way the video was presented made everything seem so sad. I thought the use of video and the word choice helped convey the message very well.

Textbook organization

I think that chapter 24 in the book was organized moderately well, but not perfectly. It seemed like they tried to organize chronologically, but also stick to a certain topic, which was useful because you got information about any group, country, or historical turning point. However, that messed up the chronology. If I were to make the textbook, I would keep it the way it is, but at the end of the chapter, I would add a timeline of everything from the chapter. They have small timelines scattered throughout the chapter, but that isn't helpful if you are simply looking for dates of events.
