History isn’t written, it’s lived

History is lived and then written about from the perspective of the person with the pen,
often someone who had no first had experience with the situation.

In conflict zones today histories are not being written.
If they are written
they are being erased,
reframed,
or reimagined by those in power.

The stories in this map have been passed down through oral histories of current events.  Where possible we have included references.
