War matters, and in studying the CW and other conflicts, we must understand the war part, not gloss over it. Moving forward, how might we reimagine military history—less siloing of ideas and open to new interpretations. 🧐.

How might we reframe the romanticization of the Civil War? 📖🎥👒💕. What role might AI play in the future of historical research and scholarship? 💻🧠💡.

What social/political changes, beyond ending slavery, do we see post-Civil War? What basic human rights, rights we now take for granted, rights that did not exist prior to the Civil War, come into play? How is it in the modern era some are still unable to accept these shifts?⚖️.
