Do zoomers know of anything/anyone, prior to George Floyd?

[Anonymous]

Have they heard of the Revolutionary War (unless it had airports)?

Have they heard of the French And Indian War (unless it was a foodfest with baguettes and curry)?

Have they heard of the Roman Empire (unless it was about eating pasta and pizza)?

Do they know whose face is on the penny?

Do they know who the Beatles were (unless it's a bunch of "icky bugs")?

Do they know who Adolf Hitler was?

Do they know what a guitar is?

At least in the USA. You try to educate the young here about the past, and they are often rude about it. They go "Look, history ain't my thing. It's for old people. Okay?".

As a zoomer. Yes I do know all about that. Private school made sure of that.

The revolutionary war I'm assuming you mean the American revolutionary war was about America breaking away from Britain and King George’s tyrannical rule.

The French and Indian War was also known as the 7 year war and it was mostly about land disputes. Fun fact that I remember was Washington participated in it as a colonel.

The Roman Empire was revolutionary to humans because of their architecture and genius military strategies. I personally loves the way they designed The Colosseum. It also has a very fascinating history of gladiators.

The president who is on the penny is Abraham Lincoln who was shot in Ford Theatre, 16th president, and led the country through the civil war.

The Beatles were such a great band. I personally love the songs Hey Jude and the yellow submarine because it was played a lot while growing up. It’s sad that only two are still alive.

Adolf Hitler was the ruler of Germany during World War 2. He was the leader of the nazi party and did many horrible things to the Jews. His goal was to become the ruler of the world. He believed that the German race was the dominant race. He committed suicide in a bunker in 1945 right before Germany surrendered.

A guitar is an instrument. By far this is the topic I know very little about.

Oh good.

I wasn't testing you, i was just hoping there were more zoomers who were worldly wise and up to date.

Probably not.
