Description

I kept seeing 1947 as a year where America took a decided turn in its history, though little noted. The CIA was born. Alllen Dulles, a profiteer from the German military and industrial ascencion in the 30s and 40s, became its head. He brought over hundreds of ex Nazis who fed him dubious info and stats about Russia despite Russia having been decimated by World War II. Thus the Cold war got its legs and the Military Industrial complex was born. On the other hand, the racial barrier in Baseball was broken. Jackie Robinson was beloved by the Brooklyn Dodgers and was a true hero. Big brassy cars began to roll off Detroit assembly lines again. Yet this woman, a fertility goddess, had her womb turned to cancer years later by the atomic testing being done in the Nevada deserts.
