Our History Should Be Celebrated and Preserved, Not Rewritten: Tom Rowsell

Historian Tom Rowsell talks to NTD’s Lee Hall about the importance of history and the motivation behind his YouTube channel Survive the Jive. Rowsell describes the backlash he received when standing up to attempts to rewrite British history and ban historical terms, and why it’s crucial we don’t allow the past to be rewritten. He also talks about the formation of the English, some of the nation’s greatest figures, and the role religions played in making England what it is today.
