Re-looking at texts can lead to new insights, since we are often reading with particular goals in mind, even if we’re not entirely aware of this fact.

MakingHistory
Making History is the top-level thing I do, as a historian, teacher, and writer. I create content, based on either original primary research or to present the findings of other historians to my students. This channel will cover several topics I am researching or teaching, and reflections on the ways that history helps us understand our current world.
