History Haters

"History Haters" We hate the over-simplification of history, and it being in many cases whitewashed to the point that it has become uninteresting at best and more likely misleading. We like history for its complexity and richness. This blog will try to entice folks back into the love of history by reviewing actual historical sites around the country and commenting on the state of historical scholarship in the 21st century.

It is the end of the year and time again for the "infamous history-haters" to meet at that old time cafe known as Bakers Square.

All kidding aside, we did meet and chatted at length about everything under the sun, making good on a past professor's assertion that all we do is sit around and engage in "intellectual masturbation".

We had a great time and look forward to the new year and new discoveries. We plan on continuing our comments on historical sites worth or not worth visiting and we plan on commenting on current historical trends.

We welcome comments and questions to anything pertaining to our posts or that deal with history, particularly Minnesota history.

Have a great new year and keep reading!!
