Yeah, even very casual fans of history know this. As far as fields of study go, history is one of the most nebulous, which is why it's important to look at any given topic through multiple frameworks so you don't miss something important, to try and prevent too many biases from affecting your conclusions or omitting important factors (for example, again, the racially neutral language of the grandfather clauses might cause a modern person to look at them and fail to realize that this was a law targeting black people).

See also: "History is written by the victors." We openly acknowledge that recorded history is not a comprehensive, unbiased understanding of events. It shouldn't shock anyone to hear about theories in the context of history.
