The 1619 Project revolves around the flawed premise that since the year 1619, when the first slaves arrived in America, all the good accomplished in America was gained off of the backs of the slaves. Further the project, which may be a trial balloon for a new further Left history curriculum, blames the Founders for perpetuating the institution of slavery within the Constitution.
The real way to know whether the 1619 Project comes from a place of fairness or is really just another way to potentially politicize our children’s history classes will present itself in the curriculum. If there is no effort in the curriculum to expose the reality that virtually all slave owners were Democrats, members of the KKK, and several generations later fought like heck to stop segregation, while the Republican fought to free the slaves and for eventual integration, then we know the project is just another way to rewrite history so as to indoctrinate our children into accepting Leftist views.
