A Must Read!

Revisado: 02-03-22

One can mistakenly think that there is nothing wrong with writing about the horrors of slavery and racial discrimination, as has been done by previous scholars and historians until you read this book. It carefully critiques the method behind the New York Times 1619 project and particularly that of its lead writer Nicole Hannah Jones. They are not setting out to clarify American history but to create a totally new and false narrative, one that is based on looking at all of American history through the lens of race and the constant, unending struggle between the white and black races of society. For Nicole Hannah Jones nothing has changed in over 400 years. Every progressive struggle, including that of the Civil Rights movement which united people of all races in a mass movement to tear down the barriers of Jim Crow, is repudiated. Who serves to benefit from such an outlook? It is certainly not the millions of workers of all races who suffer from the consequences of social inequality and who are being driven into common struggles to oppose these conditions.
