...ee dimensional animation, and stereophonic sound are all commonplace in today’s times. One can question a group of young people and find that most are unaware of the existence of silent or black-and-white movies.

Pearl Harbor is easily one of the most disastrous events that occurred on American soil. It was a deliberate attack against the United States from Japan. Before December 7, 1941 when Pearl Harbor was attacked, America had decided not to get involved in European affairs, which included the beginning of World War II. However, once the United States saw how much Britain and the Soviet Union were suffering from fighting with the Axis Powers (Germany, Italy, and Japan), America felt obligated to help in some way to help without actually entering the war. Weapons, money, and food were sent over seas to help aid them in any way it could. It was very obvious that if America had entered the war, we would join the side of the Allies (Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union). The day after Pearl Harbor, Franklin D. Roosevelt approached congress and asked for a declaration of war against Japan. Pearl Harbor affected many events that occurred in World War II. Not only the United States, but the world was affected that day.

Are you for or against Disney? For a majority of Americans this is a no brainer. There answer would be “YES”, because Disney inspired them as a kid, Disney let their imagination be free, or let them dream. Others would not agree, they say “NO” to Disney. For those people Disney has served as a direct representation of an individualist society, money making capitalist, or it represents dreams that cant come true. Yet, Disney has an incredible effect on today’s society due to the direct correlation to the American dream that they create in its publications and products.
