Thesis Statement
The Apollo 11 was a turning point in history because it was the first time that man stepped on the moon, it lead to advancements in technology, and it helped to end the space race between the United States and the Soviets.
HISTORICAL CONTEXT
During the age from 1960 through the 1970 there were disagreements between white and black. Civil rights were a big topic back then. This resulted in segregation between the two different races. The U.S. was also getting pounded with disagreements because of the Vietnam War. Not only that, the U.S. was fighting a war between the Soviets on who is the better country . Life in the 60's was easy. There wasn't as much technology as there is today.
