The History Revolution Podcast

Matt Gore

It would be nice if every American knew our history, knew the story of our founding, who our founding fathers were, the pivotal moments and consequential people along the way. Unfortunately that isn't the case. History has been put on the backburner in public schools, and what IS being taught is skewed by postmodern revisionists. That is why The History Revolution exists. Our goal is to fill the void that public education has created and expose students to real American history.
