We tend to think history is unbiased, that the facts we learned in history class are true events and stories of the past. But who wrote those records? Who documented those stories?
Long story short: it was rich white men. Men who were learned, literate, and able to keep records safe for many years. That doesn’t sound unbiased.
Maybe we should start looking at what we “know” through a more critical lens. Not everything is as it seems. There’s a lot more to these stories that we don’t understand yet.
