1945

September 11, 2020 @ 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM

$5.00

1945 Newspaper War OverJoin me in our time capsule for this amazing look back at one of the most important years in the history of the world: 1945.

In 1945 World War II finally came to an end. After the deaths of both Adolph Hitler and Franklin D. Roosevelt, the evil Nazi empire finally surrendered. In the Pacific Theatre, fierce battles came to an end with the dropping of the world’s first atomic bombs. The destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki ended the war – but ushered in a vastly more dangerous era.

We will look at the most popular movies, top radio shows and chart leading songs of 1945. As we look back, we’ll discover what famous people were born and which died during the year, learn about what everyday consumer items cost and look back at the amazing, ultimately heartbreaking World Series run of the Chicago Cubs! It would prove to be their last world series appearance until 2016!

The America of 75 years ago was very different than the America of 2020. But in ways small and large it is tremendously important to how we live today. 

COST

I ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or if you feel my programs are not worth $5.00, you are invited to come for free, I am unemployed but supporting a family, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget! Please mark ‘1945’ in the subject line.
