History Is Either Black Or White
(I am taking a class on transportation technology, which is essentially glorified auto shop, and is extremely easy. We are currently watching a video on the Montgolfier brothers, who invented the first hot air balloon. The video features historical reenactments of small parts of their lives.)
Student #1: “WAIT! If this was during the 18th century, how did they get this footage?”
(Half the class looks at her.)
Teacher: “This is a historical reenactment. People dressed up like them and were filmed like that.”
Student #2: “Yeah! If they’d filmed the actual events, this would be black and white!”
