History is the story of the human race. It's filled with violence but some good things too. If textbook history bores you, try some historical novels like WAR AND PEACE for the Communist revolution, GONE WITH THE WIND for the Civil War, WINDS OF WAR about WWII and so on. Maybe this will make the study of history more palatable.

Yes, I think that everyone should have a basic understanding of history.

Yes - it helps to understand what is going on in the world right now.

I think so, afterall, doesn't history always repeat itself? Fine source of knowledge and a glimpse into the future if you ask me.

I think so.
But you have to define what is exactly basic understanding, because some people have feeling that knowing one or two historical evidents covers that?

Yes...people who don't know history, have no future.
