Content: No, this isn't an article about him, rather about something that he once said, or is at least credited for having said. Churchill is credited with saying the (frankly) common phrase "History is written by the victors." Whether Churchill said or came up with this isn't relevant. What is relevant is the message. When we read history (or anything for that matter), we tend to assume what we are reading is true. A lot of people believe that history is an unequivocal fact. However, the history of the world that we know and study lacks just as many facts as it contains if not even more. I'm not saying that history is not accurate, it's just that it doesn't include every fact and every perspective. History is a narrative of facts that, as Winston Churchill said, is written by the victors. The voices and perspectives of the victors in history are much more dominant than those who have been conquered, oppressed, and killed.
