History is a thriller, an action movie, and history is, first and foremost, about people.
Not forces, not laws of nature, not some destiny; instead, people make history.
People make history, not the other way around.
I strive to create a world where people search history to find the key to understanding the present, where they value historical knowledge and have fun learning it.
I want to help create a society where historical arguments do not easily manipulate people because they value history and know that the truth is rarely black and white.
History provides answers, but we have to ask the right questions. Join me on my mission. Help me open up the most burning questions and encourage people to seek answers. In history, truth is rarely black and white.
I write history that rattles.
Teach history that matters.
Teach history that matters. And research is my second name.
Be it a book, an article or a blog post. I am a historian, who can write.
I research any historical topic. Whether you shoot videos, write an article, or need help with your project.
