Give this a listen...
Revisionist History — a podcast — is Malcolm Gladwell’s journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every episode re-examines something from the past — an event, a person, an idea, even a song — and asks whether we got it right the first time.

...and this a watch
Watch Bending The Arc (on Netflix). This documentary tells the story of three young people whose mission to save lives in Haiti turns into a global fight for health care and justice.
