You are offered an opportunity to witness a historical event firsthand. What event would it be and why?

This prompt allows for research, driving you to learn about various historical events and then to imagine yourself there, using vivid sensory detail and deep emotional connection. Do you choose an event because it inspires you? Because you’d want to change something about it? This can also stimulate questions about the ethics and consequences of altering the past.
