History is about Tragedy as much as it is about Triumph. WE study History to learn about the mistakes of the past and try to correct Tragedies that have took place for centuries and learn from them so we don't make the same mistakes ]]> 2021-01-06 14:49:32 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059530751 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059534768 I chose this quote because I believe it is 100% true. Here are a couple reasons why history is a nightmare: 
- segregation
- slavery
- all of the wars(revolutionary, civil, wwi, wwii) 
- the great depression]]> 2021-01-06 14:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059534768 saiyenreddy https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059534796 you're in control of how you perceive what has happened to you and in history  ]]> 2021-01-06 14:50:28 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059534796 This has been done so often in history (holocaust, slavery, etc.) People try to gain power over the oppressed by erasing their identity and giving them a new one https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535314 2021-01-06 14:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535314 This quote really speaks true to me because a lot of the time I wonder whether the stuff we learn about in history is exactly what happened or just what was chosen to write down. https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535632 2021-01-06 14:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535632 I think this speaks to me because the memories are all you're going to really remember which means history is also only based off of memories. https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535659 2021-01-06 14:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535659 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535753 I guess there really is nothing absolute. Perspective and personal experience change everything. The historical truths we hold to be true may in fact be nothing more than a story.]]> 2021-01-06 14:50:42 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059535753 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059540693  I chose this quote because it shows us that history can repeat itself if we do not learn from it. ]]> 2021-01-06 14:51:48 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059540693 saiyenreddy https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059540940 what makes something a real tragedy is the people's unwillingness to fight back against what's wrong]]> 2021-01-06 14:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059540940 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059541251 The quote shows how our lives are shaped by how we think historical events went down.]]> 2021-01-06 14:51:57 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059541251 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059542827 I find this quote very true because history is not all "pretty". There is a lot of gory details that we learn from which is very important in our history]]> 2021-01-06 14:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059542827 written history is just what previous generations have thought to be important enough to write down, and it reflects their behavior and culture. https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059543478 2021-01-06 14:52:29 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059543478 I think this relates to me because it basically explains that knowledge is power. https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059543943 2021-01-06 14:52:35 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059543943 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059545467 This quote helps us to learn from our mistakes and to not repeat them]]> 2021-01-06 14:52:54 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059545467 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059545599 I choose this quote because it shows why people study history.

We should only focus on the present or what is to come. If there is an impending conflict or we are currently in a plight, we should be able to "rise to the occasion." ]]> 2021-01-06 14:54:24 UTC https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059552093 https://padlet.com/Marklabou/pxzri03x8pxnvuyj/wish/1059553561 Innovation is key.
