In today’s loud and volatile culture, where the events of the entire world can be known and felt with the swipe of a finger across a screen, the future can seem daunting and mysterious, yet - perhaps counterintuitively - we can gain critical insight and perspective by examining the future through the lens of the past. Today, I am joined by Salisbury University Professor Tim Robinson. Tim has been a member of the faculty since 2009 with a focus on Early American History. In addition to being a professor, Tim is a sworn Law Enforcement Officer in the State of Maryland. Tim shares his enthusiasm and passion for the events of the past as he highlights both pivotal and interesting events in American History. Tim has a refreshing perspective on how the events of the past need to inform us as individuals and educate society as a whole, so we do not repeat the mistakes of the earlier generations. Tim shares a few stories from Maryland’s Eastern Shore that many may have never heard before. His commitment to helping all of his students discover the fun in history and, for a brief moment, travel back in time to ask big questions about how men and women lived so very long ago. We cover topics such as war, race, politics, presidents, and even space travel to name a few. This conversation will surely cause you to stop and examine what you thought you knew about history, and it might even push you to go buy a new book, listen to podcast, attend a talk, or even jump into to a course like the one Tim teaches at Salisbury University.
