TED: What the Russian Revolution would have looked like on social media | Mikhail Zygar

The video discusses the stereotype that history is written by rulers and how this affects perceptions of democracy in Russia. It introduces Project1917.com, a social network for historical figures, to show that ordinary people also shape history. The project challenges the view of Russia as inherently autocratic. A new project, 1968Digital.com, uses a similar approach to explore global social changes in 1968. The video emphasizes the importance of a democratic approach to history, highlighting the impact of ordinary people and ideas.
