History

How do you know everything you are learning in your history classes is true? 
Quick Write: Everything I learned about history in my classes I believed is true because all I have learned has had sources/evidence to show how it's real. My history teachers haven't just told me The Holocaust happened, they have shown me videos, pictures, and read books about survivors of The Holocaust. 

"It is impossible to change history. You cannot change the past."

Reflection: In today's society it's not impossible to change history. Just as in 1984, the newspaper and history was changed to make Big Brother and the Party look better or falsify history to change people's memory. It can happen to us by the government to change news to make us think the government isn't so bad. For example, newspaper or social media can make the presidential candidates seem more caring than what they actually are just to win elections.
