Rear Vision

about

Rear Vision is an ABC Radio National Program presented by Annabelle Quince and Keri Phillips. History is about the most interesting subject anybody can read. It's us and our ancestors, and if you don't know where you were, you don't know where you are, and you certainly have no idea where you're going!Gore Vidal In today's information age we know when things happen almost immediately but so often we don't know or understand why. News and current affairs are instantaneous but more often than not presented in a historical vacuum. Rear Vision attempts to change this by presenting contemporary events and people in their historical context. How many times have you listened to news on the radio or watched evening current affairs and wondered how it came to this, why two groups of people are fighting each other or why and how a particular leader or individual has changed history? Listen to Rear Vision and as Gore Vidal says - get a better understanding of where we've been, where we are today and where we might be going.
