      “Humanizing History is a show about people in history that have had an impact on our

      world. We will be exploring what made them important, but our main focus will be on who

      that person was outside of well known records. We will be diving deep into who these

      people were, what they hated, who they loved, and other less known information about

      their lives - in order to show the world that no one is perfect, we are all human and make

      mistakes, but that doesn't mean we can’t be great and have a profound impact on Tomorrow.”

      We will pick a new person every week!
