What 20th century historical event or person interests you the most?

I have a project to do and I need ideas..I have many but cant seem to narrow it down. Events that come to mind is the Cuban Missel Crisis, Mao Zedong's 100 flowers campaign, Stalin and Lenin's use of propaganda....



P.S. I can't do anything that has to do with Hitler cause I did a paper on him once before and now have to think of something else.

What 20th century historical event or person interests you the most?
I would like to have all the true facts on the assassination of J.F.K.

Great Depression - it's amazing what people went through. In one day everything was gone (Black Tuesday)



Psychos of the 20th century - seriously it is interesting what these people did. Not in a weird way but just amazing that someone would do something like that.
Reply:The person of the 20th century that interests me the most would be Albert Einstein. He was an incredibly brilliant person (although he dropped out of high school) and seemed to have a pretty off-beat sense of humor as well. Just a thought!
