Today
Our discussion today in class was very interesting. I never really enjoyed history because my history teacher in highschool was very boring, monotone, you know that whole thing. But that is not the case anymore. Another issue has reared its head. That history depends upon the person who is recording it. It is truly hard to get information today, in book, the internet, on tv, anywhere, without hearing the opinion of others inside the information. It is a subliminal, overlooked issue in most of the education today. But then again, it is hard to separate and write somehitng without inforcing your opinion, its a right we have in our society. But then you need to look at the source in which the information was given by, and then read other perspectives to truly make your own interpretation. Just a thought!
