No one is saying that history is solely responsible for anything, but yes, the bolded is more or less what I am suggesting. All of our lives are connected to history in some complex, maybe non-intuitive way. It isn't productive to dwell on that, but neither is it productive to ignore it (in my opinion of course.)
