LAD/Blog #33: Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact

This pact, otherwise known as the pact of paris, was constructed to further prevent world conflict as the treaty of versailles was lacking in its duties. This treaty was named after Briand, who strongly opposed conflict between the US and France, and Kellogg, the US Secretary of State. A total of 62 countries ratified this treaty, with 15 initial signees. This treaty also failed when Japan invaded Manchuria as nobody aided the Chinese with resources, and thus the path to another war treaded onward.

Additionally, it was equally memorable and deplorable that these Japanese Americans once had to live in horse stalls that were still lingering with traces of the horse due to executive order 9066. The patriot act denies also denies basic american rights under the guise of national security.
