In the age of a well-connected world and digital media – races, ideas, and cultures are coming into contact with different demographic and ethnographic backgrounds. Cross-cultural encounters in the public sphere are causing confusion, hesitation and superstition. Basic historical knowledge can enhance those discourses and debates to clarify, tolerate, and maintain commonality regarding races, ideas, and cultures. History includes human evolution, the daily practice of traits, culture, politics, religion, and the use of knowledge and tools. Contemporary historical teaching emphasises bottom-up and micro-scale events that trigger a macro-history or global history. Mundane figures or objects are building blocks of more significant events, such as a tribe, community or region member rather than a king, queen or emperor; in a way, it is a more coherent and rational approach and includes everybody.

​

The current civilisation is a contribution of all of our ancestors from all tribes and continents. History taught us that various ages and epochs- tribes from different continents accelerated human evolution and ideological and technological innovation. Most of all, we have migrated and populated the whole world and descended from a single woman. Despite commonality and uniformity in our race and birth, some claim uniqueness as a tribe, community, country and continent to subjugate and dominate others. Basic historical knowledge can empower people from all backgrounds to encounter bigotry and intolerance. The historical narrative of human beings encourages inclusiveness and cohesion and promotes peace and harmony between tribes, communities and countries.

​This site aims to present history to everyone, regardless of their educational background and geographical location. From hunter-gatherers to foot on the moon, from being prey to other animals to mastering planet Earth- knowledge of the past has equipped humans to decide for the present and influence the future. Civic, social, medical and technological innovations from the past made our lives more comfortable and efficient and helped us live longer. For example, from the second half of the nineteenth century, life expectancy started to increase in Britain and other parts of the world for the first time in human history.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This comparison shows a steep climb in life expectancy, which was achieved through historical knowledge of medicine and innovation. Modern treatment, vaccines and immunisation against viral diseases have been crucial for prolonging life. However, recently we have witnessed anti-vaccine and immunisation activists trying to establish misinformation and disinformation. Modern medicine saves lives and increases life expectancy. Empirical data can provide evidence to support a historical trend and evolution. That information can be used as evidence to counter misinformation and boost consciousness about historical knowledge to ordinary people, which I would like to publicise on this site in podcasts and blogs.

​My primary aim is to promote social and community cohesion in a multicultural environment and counter misinformation and disinformation by referencing and debating in pursuing historical analogies. Publichistory.net is a non-profit website. However, support would greatly motivate and encourage me on this subject and allow me to establish a foundation for this cause. Social cohesion and cultural toleration within the current framework of law are only possible when we accept our evolutionary history and think and feel related to others from a historical perspective, and publichistory.net can provide truth and empirical research on those historical themes and topics to the globalised world citizens.
