IB 30/35
I went through a lecture today on "The Italian Invasion of Abyssinia", I shared this Google Slides presentation with you before class. I do recommend you download it as a PowerPoint and print off a hard copy to study from. Tomorrow we're going to do a transition day between topics in Case Study 2, since I'll be showing you an episode of the CBC show, "Love, Hate and Propaganda".
