Red State:
The 1619 Project, an ideologically-driven revisionist history of the United States, has been getting a lot of attention over the last several days as Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton threatened legislation to defund any school that uses any curriculum based on it.
While I advise against actually putting forward any such legislation, Cotton’s threat appears to have forced the creator of the controversial project to go on the defensive where others – including historians critical of the premise she built the project from – did not.
Nikole Hannah-Jones took to Twitter Monday morning to walk back the assertion that the 1619 Project was “a history,” insisting that it was a project of journalism. more here
The 1619 thing does not adhere to factual history.
Call me un-surprised.
how ’bout we start the ‘2015 Project’? … the history of when ‘journalism’ died
then we can move on to a couple of ‘2020 Project’s … the year when Science, National Health Care Being Non-Political, Common Sense, & D’rat Cities died … or the year Joe Biden’s Brain Dried Up
I think she is right. It is not history, and it is completely devoid of facts, so by 2020 standards, it IS journalism.
WOW communism in live action.He who controls
the present controls the past.Revisionist
history,what could go wrong? Remember the old
cold war Russian joke. “The present and the future
are known,it is past that keeps changing”
Hey MOLAN LABE=
Joe Biden’s brain atrophied.
It is the size of a golf ball now…
Someone should write “The Criminal History of Black America” with stats, just during the last 60 years. It might shut up the black supremacist race-baiters and reparationists for a while when the people finally see the real facts.
