New eras, historical speeches, and great tragedies in this week in history…
What an incredible week this is, historically speaking. Queen Elizabeth I took the throne on 17th of November and Nixon told the press he was “not a crook.” The Gettysburg Address was made on the 19th. Sadly, the massacre in Jonestown took place on the 18th. These are just a few of the great moments in history that took place this week.
