Abstract
- The article argues that "The 1619 Project" of the American newspaper "The New York Times" is distorting American history with its proposition that 1619 rather that 1776 should be regarded as the birth year of the U.S. Topics covered include its false and destructive narrative about the country, the project's floating of the idea that slavery and the anti-black racism it required constitute the true foundation of American history, and the project as "Time's" preparation for the 2020 election.
