    When George Orwell said, 'The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history', he meant that history is the glue that holds the society together. If we deny people of their history, we deny them of their culture.

    Explanation:

    George Orwell was the famous novelist, essayist, and a journalist of his time. His works are read and taught even today. The above mentioned quote was supposedly taken from one of his work 'Nineteen eight-four.'

    Every religion or person have their own history, and the quote states that if we take way the history of people, then in a way we take away their culture. History is something that binds the society together. For example, in the 21st century, modern media technologies aren't providing the factual data regarding the history thus leading to denial.
