The outpouring of sympathy for past transgressions that most times don't have anything to do with current generations. Take example the idea that Christians are pressured into feeling sorrow or guilt for the Holy Crusades in the middle ages. Or another example is the actual celebration of "Black History Month", a reverse-racist idea that was brought on by Black Supremacists that wished to "get back" at the entire white American population for hundreds of years of oppression. By badgering the media with propaganda and moving speeches enabled racist blacks to attain "Black History Month" by using "Historical Guilt". Another example still is the actual foundation of the state of Israel, which was brought upon by pressure of Zionists that seeking sympathy from the horrors of the Holocaust. The United States as well as the rest of the International community owed nothing to the survivors as well as subsequent generations of Holocaust survivors, yet the "Historical Guilt" plagued them to open their checkbooks.
Black History Month
Israel
The Holy Crusades

"Historical Reference"- May be defined as:

1). A human related investigative action, and /or action(s) of, pertaining to, treating, or characteristic of searching for /or researching conditions/ circumstances into past or current data or knowledge of a subject. That attains a methodology from beginning to end of an event or history or past events.

2). Historical records; historical research. Example; searching for data pertaining to the :"Legend of King Author's Grave". A historian, and or archaeologist researches some legendary facts about the location of such a grave. Upon their discovery of new data, knowledge it adds to the past known data. Which includes a brief description of a discovery in historical, archaeological, technical, or scientific research in progress whose disclosure is considered important to the subject area studied. Where the new data/ evidence may be written into an article/ paper, and into a peer reviewed journal. Afterward, the legend transcends into that once it possibly existed and no longer is completely legend. Rather, becomes more of a historical fact or event.

3). Reconstructed data knowledge, facts, or evidence, that creates a situation where legend may become more historically factually correct. Based upon new research. Or, from an event, custom, style, etc., in the past.

4). Having once existed or lived in the real world, or a legend that could become a historical fact based upon the tangible evidence of it.
"Historical Reference": previously the subject matter for instance was just a legend. For example; "Legend of King Author's Grave". A historian, and or archaeologist in their research discovers new data and/or knowledge about the legend that now may be able to make it become more of a historical fact that it once existed or was based upon some other type of tangible evidence. So, now the previous legend become more of a historical fact than just a legend or myth anymore. Or, adds to the past known data, with new data and evidence where the new data and evidence is able to be written as an article or paper, accepted into a professional, scholarly, technical, and/ or peer reviewed scientific journal. Based upon the new data, knowledge, evidence, and/or new discoveries that makes the legend more factual and closer to a historical event.
