In English class we read 1984 and did a research presentation on a topic of our choosing. The research presentations later were incorporated in each of our worldbuilding projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My research presentation was on MK Ultra – a project that was run by the CIA in from the 1950s to the 1970s. The goal was to train people to use mind control because the US government was afraid that the communists were using mind control. The project was done in secrecy due to unethical conditions. After years of abusing unwilling participants, the CIA got rid of the records in order to not face consequences. This project connects to current times because there is government censorship still happening, like the government deciding what can be displayed in the Smithsonian and saying anything that portrays American history as being flawed must be censored. In 1984 we read about how the Ministry of Truth controls how history is portrayed to make their government look perfect. Just like in the novel 1984, preservation of history and individuality is at stake right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
