Description

In classrooms across the country, history teachers often educate their students about governments and the laws they pass, bloody wars that ravage society, power hungry and opportunistic leaders who have statues built in their honor, and boring societal and economic trends. Rarely do they focus on the culture that inspires human greatness. These are the stories of great cultural moments that defined us, changed us, and caused us to question everything. These are the distractions that got us through the hard times and that inspired us to be more than we ever imagined. These are the people who led whether anyone initially followed them or not.
