Summary of The 1619 Project

The 1619 Project is an anthology of essays edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones and co-created with the New York Times that seeks to reframe American history with the institution of slavery at its core. The book asserts that American history began in 1619 with the arrival of the first ship of enslaved Africans, one year before the Mayflower arrived. ...It also argues that, American democracy and the prosperous nation we know today were largely built by enslaved Black Americans but that this demographic is almost entirely excluded from America’s founding stories and remains suppressed today due to racist institutions that persist from slavery.This is the SUMMARY of the book, The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story by Nikole Hannah-Jones, which in no way intends to displace the original work but offers the following:* An in-depth analysis of the book* An efficiently written work that conveys the authors' message in a reader-friendly manner.* A sufficient synopsis of the author's main ideas.These and many more can be found in this little book of immeasurable value! Click on the Buy Now button to Order your copy now!.---------DISCLAIMERThis book is an unofficial summary and analysis of Nikole Hannah-Jones's book, The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story, which should be read in conjunction with the original work, not as a substitute.
