Geschichtserzählungen, die die Kontinuität von Rassismus und Ungleichheit betonen – wie das #1619Project – werden von Trump und Co. dagegen als „spalterisch“ diffamiert. Der Konflikt um Erinnerung ist zugleich ein Streit um den Zustand und die Zukunft der amerikanischen Demokratie. (2/3) #ReclaimMLK

It provides the telephone numbers of the #universities that employ them for students & parents to register their complaints. While the site claims the organization supports #FreeSpeech, many #professors have recounted enduring campaigns of #harassment after being put on the list. (Nikole Hannah-Jones was placed on it in 2021 because of her work on the #1619Project, after it was announced that she would be a professor at Howard University.)

#NicoleHannahJones wrote about the Black experience in America and became the target of massive #rightwing backlash

 It’s been 5 years since Nikole Hannah Jones published the #1619Project. She says, “I see the thousands of Americans… who are saying ‘I understand my country better,’ & are starting to really critique so much of the inequality that we accept.” #Velshi https://www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/watch/she-wrote-about-the-black-experience-in-america-and-became-the-target-of-massive-right-wing-backlash-212082245979

I'm reading a lot about #ChatGPT4o and #htr, so I figured I'd spot-check it with this document: https://fromthepage.com/lva/va-revcon-74-76/work-7811594-024/display/33996304

The results were better than nothing, but still not great.

In particular, it was not able to read Lord Dunmore's name, nor read either of two references to "Emancipate our Slaves". If you've been following historical debates about the #1619project , you can imagine how problematic it would be to rely on this transcription for full-text search.

#NikoleHannahJones, the #1619Project creator, is being attacked for #exposing #systemicracism in #America.

Her '#crime' goes beyond #revealing The #harsh #reality of #AmericanHistory; instead it is showing that our #systems and #society #perpetuate, not end, #inequality

how do i celebrate independence day when thomas jefferson was a slaver? ask black folk. they are the ones who know. #4thOfJuly #1619Project

@QasimRashid The offended #Republican should read:
- The 1619 Project, Nikole Hannah-Jones
- An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz

Then they can revisit their thoughts of the US colonizers being beacons of freedom.
