Default 1619 :She claims the British were on the warpath against the slave trade




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]
