I, too, was lucky enough to have history teachers who taught with passion and made events come alive. We needed to know dates, and to fill in blank maps with boundaries, rivers, cities, etc. but I actually loved that. And we, too, needed to know the why of things. We were so lucky. I only wish I could remember it now haha.

The word history contains the word "story.". If only it were always taught that way.

Yes. I, too, had one history teacher in HS that made history/herstory come allive and it made all the difference.
