\u201cHistory can have another effect, however. Like memory, it can liberate us when the present seems an irrevocable fact of nature. Memory can remind us of possibilities that we have forgotten, and history can suggest to us alternatives that we would never otherwise consider. It can both warn and inspire. It can warn us that it is possible for a whole nation to be brainwashed, or \u201cenlightened\u201d and \u201ceducated\u201d people to commit genocide, for a \u201cdemocratic\u201d country to maintain slavery, for oppressed to turn into oppressors, for \u201csocialism\u201d to be tyrannical and \u201cliberalism\u201d to be imperialist, for whole peoples to be led to war like sheep.

\u201cOur historical experience is limited, however, and while it suggests some of the things that are possible, it has not even begun to exhaust the total range of possibility. Because of the limits of our imagination, tyrannized as we are by the past, we find it hard to accept that there is a universe of tricks still to be played that has barely been touched in all of human history. In other words, the past suggests what can be, not what must be.
