The Historian Project

In the year AD 2754 there are no more history books. Instead, Historians travel back in time to attend historically significant events and report on them as they actually happened, not as traditional history has always told us they happened. Then they upload their reports to the Educator Database, which 28th century history teachers use to create and develop their course curriculum. In this satire of 21st century America, our lives are being covertly observed by Historians from the year AD 2754. The future world population now lives in oceans across the globe and the time continuum, where they have no hunger, no countries, and no organized religion. They even, finally, designed a new world order to promote lasting peace. The Historians emerge from that world to join us in our world, where they mingle with us undercover.

A blunder by one of these Historians triggers a potentially disastrous alternate history. To repair this "anomaly" and return the time continuum and recorded history to its original state, 28th century world leaders gather an emergency team they dispatch to Washington, D.C., AD 2021, to stop a disturbed individual from murdering an adolescent who is supposed to grow up to be a highly consequential historical figure. That blunder puts the boy's life at risk and threatens the future of the world.
