History teaches us about who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going. I have always thought of history as a prophylactic against extreme social disorders. If we are aware of the conditions in which such disorders arise, and the way people respond to them, we can better avoid falling victim to their influences. We can better remain true to our moral decency, and to our ideals of liberty and justice. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
