History, it's often said, is written by the victors -- so how accurate is our understanding of history? Six distinguished University of Minnesota professors from fields ranging from African Studies to surgery, come together to examine current perspectives in U.S. history. What was America like after the Civil War? What really went on during the Cuban Missile Crisis? And where do we stand now on the spectrum of accuracy in recording history? Beyond UW The University of Washington is committed to ensuring digital accessibility in our services, programs, and activities.
