The function of traditional history is to create a citizenry that looks to the top - the president, Congress, the Supreme Court - to make the important decisions. That's what traditional history is all about: the laws that were passed, the decisions made by the court. So much of history is built around "the great men. " All of that is very anti-democratic.

Very well, but remember this. . . I'll be looking at you when you're laid on the cross and the twelve blows are crashing down on your limbs.

I will look deep into your eyes. . . and drop by drop I will trickle my disgust into them like burning acid until. . . finally. . . you perish.
