Pulitzer Prize to ‘1619 Project’ Shows What's Wrong With Many Institutions

The New York Times’ “1619 Project”—despite being riddled with historical inaccuracies—is now the winner of a Pulitzer Prize, an outcome that is unfortunate but utterly unsurprising.

The award was given specifically to journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, the architect of the 1619 Project.

But her lead essay in the project has been lambasted by historians as inaccurate, in large part because of her assertion that the American colonists fought the Revolution to protect slavery.

That contention flowed from the project’s stated goal of showing that the country’s true founding was in 1619, when the first slaves from Africa were brought to the United States, rather than 1776, when the Colonies declared their independence from England.

So why do you think they gave her the Pulitzer Prize for this?

I would say it was an attempt to 'validate' her assertions in a way that they think would be very hard to refute.

But it is ridiculous on its face, and anyone with any sense will see right through it.

HOME SCHOOL. NOW!

Get your like minded friends together and start a co-op. 1 parent can teach several children. Several parents can teach several children even better.

Take back your children. Take back our country.

Water the tree with those that oppose your god given freedoms. With prejudice.

I quit paying attention to those type of awards when they gave the "Nobel" to Obama.

James Comeys book has been made into a mini series by STARZ. He picked up a 25 million dollar pay day and a back end deal. He has made around 30 million in 3 years for attempting to take down a president and meddle in a Presidential Election. Let that sink in.

Let me add:

Those who control the present control the future.

Right?

History is commutable, like mathematics.
