Main Argument - History is not an objective record but a narrative shaped by selective memory, influencing our perception and understanding of the world [15][39] - The brain actively curates reality, and historical narratives significantly shape our brain's wiring and perception [19][21] - The exclusion of critical voices and contributions from certain communities leads to feelings of alienation and demotivation [27][32] Key Insights - The story of Ibn al-Nafis's discovery of pulmonary circulation centuries before William Harvey highlights the erasure of certain historical contributions [9][11] - The brain's capacity is vast, holding approximately 250 万 gigabytes of memory, equivalent to 9,700 iPhone 16s, costing $1090 万 [17] - Exposure to information reinforces neural connections, shaping perception based on historical narratives [21][22] Call to Action - Individuals should seek out and share their own stories to challenge existing narratives and promote inclusivity [35][37] - Sharing diverse stories rewires brains, inspires innovation, and creates a positive cycle of progress [37][38] - It is a collective responsibility to ensure that every story has a place in history, acknowledging contributions from marginalized communities [40][33]

And so they were rooted rooted in poverty since the middle of middle middle ages.And then all of a sudden, boom, golf club membership and avocado on toast ...
