Active History is a not-for-profit, entirely volunteer-run project that has thrived over the last 15 years thanks to a community of readers and contributors.

The site is now home to over 2,000 blog posts, podcasts, papers, and exhibits. We’re conscious of the importance of giving this wealth of material a stable and secure home. We’re also committed to supporting projects that connect with the Active History mission of bringing together historians and the public as well as the past and the present.
