Social Media and the World Wide Web have reconfigured what we know about the past. In this talk, author and public historian Jason Steinhauer will discuss how social media shapes what we know about history, and why some information about the past becomes visible online, and why other information we never see.
Jason Steinhauer is an author, public historian, podcast host, founder of the History Communication Institute, creator of History Club and a Global Fellow at The Wilson Center. He is the author of the best-selling book History, Disrupted: How Social Media & the World Wide Web Have Changed the Past.
