The idea\/realization that not everything in history has been\/is recorded. There are parts of history that we simply will never know because nothing exists on that topic. A lot of this is by choice. Like Bezio touched on, thousands of white men were praised and written about over the course of time. On the other hand, women were nowhere near written about as much as white men. There were no laws of equality or laws that stated that everything had to be written down no matter what. Moreover, there are parts of history that we will never know about. Another thought that popped into my head was the old saying that history is written by the winners. While it might sound cliche it\u2019s true. There are so many pieces of history that we will never fully understand because of the lack of evidence of all parts\/sides of an event.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0My main takeaway from this podcast was that it&#8217;s okay to question what we hear and see. It&#8217;s encouraged, but most importantly necessary, to understand a situation from all angles to the best of your abilities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week&#8217;s podcast presented me with an idea that I have never thought about before.
