Some of us love history. Others used to or never did because history was presented as nothing but the

rope memorization of names, dates, and facts. Basically, the story got left out and that made history

kind of suck. My name is Greg Jackson. I'm a university professor

with a PhD in history and bringing history to life is my passion. That's why I created my

podcast, History that doesn't suck. I want to teach you

everything you need to know about US history, but I do so through stories. Let me

tell you about George Washington begging his men not to mutiny against Congress.

Clara Barton saving Union soldiers amid enemy fire, enslaved Frederick Douglas risking his life

for liberty, and about so many other figures as their real experiences make industrialization, social movements, and even congressional debates and tax policy come to life.
