What happens to a society when it forgets its history, or rewrites the past to serve the politics of the present?
Historian and Priests of History author Sarah Irving-Stonebraker joins Mike Bird to explore why history departments are disappearing, why the past has become a battleground in today’s culture wars, and whether any historian can truly escape ideological bias.
From the British Empire and Indigenous Australia to Marxism, Christianity and the origins of human rights, this is a fascinating conversation about who gets to tell our history, what happens when we lose it, and why the past may matter more than ever.
