Nikole Hannah-Jones, the creator of the New York Times’ now–debunked“1619 Project” said she would consider it an “honor” if all the devastating riots over the past few weeks were remembered as the “1619 Riots.”
This tweet was up for two days before she deleted it Monday morning.
Without any prompting, Hannah-Jones was remarking on a New York Post opinion piece titled “Call Them the 1619 Riots.”
The premise of the Post piece is left-wing institutions, like the New York Times and its debunked “1619 Project” and the public schools embracing the debunked “1619 Project,” are deliberately creating a generation of angry, violent, embittered young people who have been led astray by the lie that America was founded on the idea of slavery in 1619, and the Revolutionary War was fought to protect slavery and not the ideals of individual liberty.
