What do historians call a “primary source”? And how do historians use such sources. List five primary sources that future historians could possibly use to understand some important aspects of life today. Describe in what way each source would be useful, and how each could need to be interpreted and contextualized. (There are of course many possible answers, depending on what you consider an “important aspect of your life,” and this is totally up to you.)
