Digging Deeper: Why We Started Unsung Histories

Most people know the names of empires — but not the people who stood up to them. At Unsung Histories, we ask a simple question: What happens when you flip the script? This project started with a fascination for the forgotten wars, resistance leaders, and complex truths buried under centuries of colonial narratives. From Rabih az-Zubayr’s defiance to the Anglo-Aro War, we’re bringing the battles that shaped nations back into focus. Our mission? To challenge what’s taught — and spotlight what’s ignored. 🔗 We tell stories that don’t fit cleanly into textbooks. 🎬 We use YouTube Shorts, videos, and deep dives to make history accessible, bold, and visual. 🖤 We believe remembering resistance is a form of justice.
