Know And Tell – Karen Glass

They are just as fluent as children who began narration earlier. I’m here to tell you about the Cold War. This war was between Russia and America. America and Russia were both very powerful countries with extremely powerful weapons—weapons that were nuclear. They could fire at each other from all the way around the globe and attack. Neither of them wanted to put down their weapons because they knew, immediately when they put down their weapons, the other one would attack.

But finally the president of the United States agreed with Russia to put away short-range weapons, so that, in other words, he could finish his long-range weapons, because that way they would all lose their short range weapons, but he would still have his long- range weapons that could take out Russia in case of attack. —Oral narration by J, 11-year-old boy, a few months after beginning narration After Wolsey’s death, Henry VIII appealed to the Continental Universities for the opinion on the “divorce question.”

They all (even those in the Papal states) replied in his favor. Henry felt validated, and decided that if he couldn’t get what he wanted using existing channels, he’d make his own. The Pope could go jump in a lake. So he started the House of Commons on what would be a long series of reforms on the English clergy, how much money they got and how much control Rome had over them.

When Henry was threatened with excommunication, Parliament passed an act stating that if he was excommunicated, or even an interdict was placed, the clergy and government would ignore it. In 1532, Sir Thomas More resigned as Lord Chancellor, no longer willing to go along with Henry’s “reforms.” Six months later Henry married Anne Boleyn in secret.
