About History Connected

History Connected is a platform for exploring and discussing the ways in which the past shapes and informs the present, and how the study of history can enrich our civic lives.

Whether you are a student looking to deepen your understanding of the past, an educator seeking new ideas and resources for your classroom, or simply a curious onlooker of past and present life, we hope you will find something of value on our site. We look forward to connecting with you through the study of history.
