Nikole Hannah-Jones was on the DailyShowHD on the 5th shown on the 7th on our ComedyCentralHD, ["I read the first essay by Nikole Hannah-Jones, which alleges that the Revolution occurred primarily because of the Americans' desire to save their slaves. She claims the British were on the warpath against the slave trade and slavery and that rebellion was the only hope for American slavery. This made the American Revolution out to be like the Civil War, where the South seceded to save and protect slavery, and that the Americans 70 years earlier revolted to protect their institution of slavery. I just couldn't believe this." He continued, "I was surprised, as many other people were, by the scope of this thing, especially since it's going to become the basis for high school education and has the authority of the New York Times behind it, and yet it is so wrong in so many ways] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_1619_Project Last edited by arista; 18-02-2020 at 11:05 PM. |
