For events in history you have to be in the library, not on social media or Wikipedia .

Hey now, this is a place to learn and share, not shame. At least, not shame for a lack of pre-existing knowledge on subjects. Many of the events we meme about here are not commonly addressed in school or in popular culture; and hell, even on those subjects which are, expecting someone to retain everything they were taught in school is not really fair.

This is a comm about celebrating the interest in history.
