    the 1619 "project" was not written by a historian---------this is very fair critique

      Oh dear god Sonya. Awesome way to play the race card. Really, it’s SO unbecoming. Maybe, some day, focus on the facts presented.
      Nikole Hannah-Jones is NOT a historian. She has a BA in African American Studies and an MA in mass communications. She’s an ‘Investigative Journalist’. She’s got a new job as a ‘professor in Race and Reporting’.
      And she made significant material factual errors in her 1619 opinion papers.
      Doesn’t mean she’s not entitled to her opinion. Just like your dentist is entitled to an opinion about your brain surgery.
      It’s just that dentists aren’t brain surgeons. Not complicated.

    I was always taught that the first Africans came to the English Colonies in America in 1617. Now only 1619 is heard. This 1619 project seems to be a document that started with the conclusion. That denotes poor scholarship and even, possibly, false scholarship.

      Since the enslaved people were killed or severely beaten by enslavers for reading or writing how were they expected to become historians by YT ppls standards

      @@sonyahathaway9753you completely ignored the point. No one is saying they need to be historians, we’re just saying the 1619 project is obvious psuedo history that has a political motive.

    One correction. Mr. Guelzo stated, " The New York Times is a great American Institution." I disagree. Sadly, The New York Times WAS a great American institution.

    The about 20 Africans who were on the pirate ship that landed in Jamestown in 1619 were traded for food. These African were treated as indentured servants and soon released. At that time, slavery was already present in the Spanish parts of America.

    My ancestor, General Artemus Ward enlisted servants, slaves and freedmen into his Massachusetts militia against the wishes of some who didn't want the southern colonies to find out. The relationship between New England and the Middle/southern colonies was complex. The North, which was abolitionist even in the 18th cen. and representing the ideological force for revolution, had to make a deal with the wealthier southerners in order to make the separation w/ Britain an even viable option.

      As one who believes history is the world's greatest teacher and most reliable prognosticator, may I ask what statements or issues presented by either Mr. Murray or his guest are false? I hope you won't find my question as an attempt to gaslight you or some automated defense of either man. I am sincerely interested in knowing more about the 1619 project. If either man is lying or manipulating data, please let me know what data you find inaccurate. N'yawęh, JoJo

      Thank you. I don't have Hulu but have watched several videos on it so far. Please know, I wasn’t asking for a a free tutor. I wasn't asking you to do the work I should do. I was asking only if you would be kind enough to share with me the statement or facts you felt were incorrect. No hidden agenda. I listened to them & then read comments. Yours stood out to me as you clearly heard something you believe to be incorrect. So I thought, I wonder what they said...cause I believe in listening to differing views on matters. Sorry I imposed upon you.
