To quote Richard Carrier, “Historians are the memory cells of the metaphorical ‘brain’ that is the whole human race.” In a time of “fake news” and the appropriation of facts for ideologic purposes, it is crucial for those of us who fulfill that role to engage with the public. Evoking History is a podcast where historians will discuss both their research and current events to preserve social memory.
