What's wrong with the 1619 Project?
04/05/2021
The 1619 Project's self-evident purpose is to erase the actual foundation of the nation born in 1776 and memorialized by Lincoln as a "new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." Quite simply, The Project embodies a narrative that paints America as nothing more than an uninterrupted exercise of "white supremacy" and of brutal oppression by whites of non-white peoples, particularly non-whites who were brought to America's shores from Africa.
