    1. requires millions of dollars in investment

    2. How has the history of alcohol and Prohibition affected the War on Drugs? How does Israel teach the Holocaust, and is there something we could learn from that to teach about slavery and Jim Crow here in the United States?

The Holocaust or the Superbowl?

    3. How does popular culture — or more important, our perception of popular culture — move public opinion?
