21st Century: Query 128 (Dwight D. Eisenhower)
“This world of ours... must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be, instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.” ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower was an American army general and statesman who served as the 34th president of the United States from 1953 to 1961. During World War II , he was a five-star general in the Army and served as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force in Europe. He was responsible for planning and supervising the invasion of North Africa in Operation Torch in 1942–43 and the successful invasion of Normandy in 1944–45 from the Western Front . In 2020 discourse, how are we failing to cultivate “a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect”? How might we regain these positive traits?
