Red, White, and Black. Scholars and activists challenge the 1619 Project

[get these nets]

False. I challenged the book based on the fact that the authors were explicitly conservative Republican biased and most had no expertise in the subject matter.

"Herb Boyd is a journalist and activist who teaches Black Studies at City College of New York. Seems like an appropriate guy to write about Malcolm X.
John Henrik Clarke (R.I.P.) was a professor of Black Studies at City University of New York. Seems like an appropriate guy to write about Nat Turner.

On the other hand, the guys I just listed are right-wing activists and politicians, writers at right-wing publications, or professors in subjects like finance, economics, and religious studies. They don't appear to have studied in American History. So why would they be your go-to voices for a critical response to the 1619 project"

Like I wrote earlier in the thread

I know juelzing when I hear it.

Thanks. The entire "England was going to get rid of slavery" narrative ignores or obscures what directly led to the eventual end of slavery in the British colonies.

It wasn't benevolence or enlightenment. The Baptist War and the aftermath is what gave the final momentum to the anti slavery forces in England. Revolt, the last in a series of revolts that occurred throughout the history of those plantation colonies
