16 Times Memes Were The Best Way To Explain History

Let's be honest - kids today don't want to READ BOOKS. They want to be Snapgram their "followers", Instachat their "baes", and tweetbook their "fidget spinners" (I am VERY up to date on the current lingo of teens). And most importantly, they want to communicate through memes - so if the internet is constantly going to be flooded with non-stop memes left and right, might as well have those memes actually TEACH kids something, right? Well, that's where History In Memes comes in, using Spongebob Squarepants screencaps and other memes to explain historical facts and events in the only way that will get anyone to pay attention.
