I didn't hate her. But, I did hate her approach to history. Especially when we got around to discussing World War 2. She insisted that the second bombing was just as justified as the first. I maintained that the first was debatable and the second was unjustified. We argued about that several times. OTOH it was the first time I spoke up in that class possibly any class so in that sense she inspired me to be very opinionated and to not be afraid to speak up.
