Origins
of the Cold War documents- Some historians argue that the Cold War began
because of Soviet aggression followed by American containment policies. Other
historians contend that it was the U.S. who were aggressive and the Soviets who
reacted to protect their interests. What
is your evaluation of these two positions considering the conditions for each
country in the 1940s?

The reality in
Greece and Turkey- “In Greece, which had been a right-wing monarchy and
dictatorship before the war, a popular left-wing National Liberation Front (the
EAM) was put down by a British army of intervention immediately after the war.
A right-wing dictatorship was restored. When opponents of the regime were
jailed, and trade union leaders removed, a left-wing guerrilla movement began
to grow against the regime, soon consisting of 17,000 fighters, 50,000 active
supporters, and perhaps 250,000 sympathizers, in a country of 7 million. Great
Britain said it could not handle the rebellion, and asked the United States to
come in. As a State Department officer said later: "Great Britain had
within the hour handed the job of world leadership . . . to the United
States."
The United States responded
with the Truman Doctrine…” http://www.historyisaweapon.com/defcon1/zinnpeopleswar.html
"It is essential to remember," Professor D.F. Fleming
has pointed out in his eminent history of the cold war, "that Greece was
the first of the liberated states to be openly and forcibly compelled to accept
the political system of the occupying Great Power. It was Churchill who acted
first and Stalin who followed his example, in Bulgaria and then in Rumania,
though with less bloodshed." https://archive.org/stream/pdfy-y_8iHigC3Ms5TngF/BLUM%20killing%20hope_djvu.txt
Memo PPS23 by George Kennan
Furthermore, we have about 50% of the
world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly
great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we
cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the
coming period is to devise a pattern of
relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity
without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to
dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have
to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not
deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and
world-benefaction.
...
In the face of this situation we would
be better off to dispense now with a number of the concepts which have
underlined our thinking with regard to the Far East. We should dispense with
the aspiration to "be liked" or to be regarded as the repository of a
high-minded international altruism. We should stop putting ourselves in the
position of being our brothers' keeper and refrain from offering moral and
ideological advice. We should cease to talk about vague and—for the Far
East—unreal objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living
standards, and democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to
have to deal in straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by
idealistic slogans, the better.

Constitution and ideal of equal opportunity vs. reality of white supremacy
Purpose of segregation and miscegenation? Who benefits from “white supremacy”?
De jure segregation is the separating groups by racial categories by law.
De facto segregation is the separating groups by racial categories in actual practice, not by law.
Prejudice is an attitude, a prejudging, usually in a negative way on the basis of their group membership.
Discrimination is the unfair treatment directed against someone based on a prejudicial belief.
Racism is the institutional and cultural practices that promote the domination of one racial group over another. Racism is race prejudice plus power.
White supremacy is an historically based, institutionally perpetuated system of exploitation and oppression of continents, nations and peoples of color by white peoples and nations of the European continent; for the purpose of maintaining and defending a system of wealth, power and privilege. http://www.ywca.org/atf/cf/%7BAC4038C4-BCCA-4F24-B55C-F41063EDF6FE%7D/Racism%20-Definitions%20for%20Class%20.pdf
