    One of the most influential quotes about history that was ever said was by Edmund Burke who stated “those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it.” This is such a powerful quote because it explains the significance of knowing the past and how valuable it can be. Those who are unaware of the past will repeat it because they are unaware of what has occurred before and what lessons can be learned from those events. One of my favorite musical artists, J. Cole, once stated in his song “Fire Squad,” “History repeats itself and that 's just how it goes.” With all of these iconic individuals sharing the value of History, it becomes very evident to me how crucial it…

He mentioned how some of these kids would probably not have a chance to ever receive a hearing screening outside of this experience, and it was nice to learn that our work was appreciated and well accepted.…
