Can History Warn Us About the Future? Dr. Christian B. Keller | U.S. Army War College (Part 1 of 3)

Part 1 of 3 of an in-depth conversation with Dr. Christian B. Keller, Professor of History at the U.S. Army War College, on the power of historical mindedness—using the past to better understand the present and make wiser decisions about the future.Dr. Keller explains why history is more than memorizing dates and facts. It is a discipline of asking deeper questions: How did we get here? What forces shaped today’s world? What mistakes keep repeating? The discussion explores how historical context helps explain modern political polarization, the roots of institutions like the United Nations and European Union, and the warning signs that preceded the American Civil War.This episode also examines how leaders, citizens, churches, and policymakers can use history to avoid repeating destructive patterns. If you want to better understand America’s current moment through the lens of the past, this conversation is essential listening.YouTube URL for this episode:Click here for the full Historical Mindedness playlist on YouTubeHere are some other links for Orbis Sentry related material:Click here for all of our debrief discussions for South by Southwest (SXSW).
