Gotta be the World Series earthquake in 1989 when I was 6 I think. This is really hard as a historian though b/c it’s blurry as to what is a memory and what is something I taught or read about as part of my job.https://twitter.com/slothanova/status/1147924048812412928 …

Yup. There are definitely events I remember from my childhood. Most are disasters (Oklahoma City, Rabin assassination, TWA Flight 800, World Series earthquake) + OJ + Clinton’s wins. But a lot of seminal stuff gets blurrier from there.

I remember hearing about Vietnam like it was a thousand years ago, even though Saigon fell when I was 4. Ditto Watergate.
