We’ve toured the WW1 Museum, the Berlin Wall exhibition plus the Harry Truman museum and library. It’s exposed me to much history from that time from different perspectives-- the rise of the U.S. as a major military power, the dynamics leading up to WW1, WW2, the Cold War, the rise of nationalism and the rise of civil rights....
Some things stand out. First, Seattle doesn’t have museums that cover military or political history like this. Seattle could up its museum game.
Second... history doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme. The rhymes of today make me uncomfortable.
