This question was raised in History class today.
Are we history? If yes, then why? If no, then why not? |

Of course we are part of history. That's exactly what we are, part of history. Some of us have a bigger part than the rest but when you look back on the past civilization as a whole, you are part of that whole. History also depends upon the person living it and how they relay it to the future. We learned in AP US History class that Captain Smith (an early American settler, that you may remember from Pocohantas) wrote a book of his amazing voyages to many lands but the reader has to completely put him or herself in the writer's hands and believe them. You can change the course of history just because you wrote something down wrong, exaggerated, or didn't record it all. In answer to your question, of course we are history. We all are and, just because in 100 years people won't know your name, doesn't mean that you didn't contribute.
