Summary
It’s the New “Big Lie”.
According the New York Times’ “1619 Project”, America was not founded in 1776, with a declaration of freedom and independence, but in 1619 with the introduction of African slavery into the New World. Ever since then, the “1619 Project” argues, American history has been one long sordid tale of systemic racism.
Celebrated historians have debunked this, more than 200 years of American literature disproves it, parents know it to be false, and yet it is being promoted across America as an integral part of grade school curricula and unquestionable orthodoxy on college campuses.
The “1619 Project” is not just bad history, it is a danger to our national life, replacing the idea, goal, and reality of American unity with race-based obsessions that we have seen play out in violence, riots, and the destruction of American monuments - not to mention the wholesale rewriting of America’s historical and cultural past.
In her new book, Debunking the 1619 Project, scholar Mary Grabar, shows, in dramatic fashion, just how full of flat-out lies, distortions, and noxious propaganda the “1619 Project” really is. It is essential listening for every concerned parent, citizen, school board member, and policymaker.

White Supremacy at best.
The author is clearly confused and offers absolutely nothing… written by a white supremacist for other white supremacists.

Educational, with a lot of examples.
The beginning was hard to get through due to the passionate delivery of the narrator. A more objective tone would have benefited the content more. After the first chapter however the delivery got to a tone that I could easily listen to.
The book itself objectively looks through Nicole Hanna Jones's errors, and willful ignorance when crafting the 1619 project, and delivers plenty of great examples, and explanations supporting the validity of the author's concerns. Through putting chapters of history into the appropriate context and providing the details necessary for a clearer understanding, it successfully reveals not only the truth, but the negative intent behind the project, and how it is used to drive current narratives to undermine the social integrity of the US and prevent the formation of a social consensus around key historical events.
Highly recommended to anyone willing to look further than the scapegoating and namecalling that has now become a staple in global media, and look at history in a way that allows humanity to actually learn from it's mistakes.
