Knowledge of the past is essential to understanding
the present…
Why do we study history?
…in order to learn from themistakes of the past and
not repeat them…
…to learn how people behaveand how societies change…
History reminds us of ourSuccesses and our
Shortcomings…
History reminds us thatchange is not inevitable
but it is the result of humanchoice, actions, and
struggle
History reminds us ofhow far we have come…
…and how far we have yet togo.
