NYT writer who CREATED the fake 1619 Project "history" now claims "It never pretended to be a history"

Nikole Hannah-Jones is a black female communist who writes for the NY Times.  Her claim to "fame" is that the founding of the U.S. was NOT 1776 (when we declared independence from Great Britain) but 160 years earlier.  She and the Times called it "the 1619 project."

And what's her basis for her revisionist history?  Do you really need to ask?  She says that's when the first slave landed in the colonies.  That's critical to her because she claims slavery is the most important issue in human history----but only slavery in the British colonies that fought a war for independence 160 years later.

This communist bitch won a Pulitzer prize for her revisionist history, and dozens of school systems (mostly in New York city) have said her work will be taught as fact in their schools.

Fact, eh?  But even fiction-writer Nikole admits "I've always said that the 1619 project is NOT a history.  It is a work of journalism."  Yet the schools in Dem-ruled cities have said they'll teach this as FACTUAL.  Clever how that works, eh?  Here we have official Dem policy to teach fake history if it advances the Marxist goal of tearing down the U.S.

I’ve always said that the 1619 Project is not a history. It is a work of journalism that explicitly seeks to challenge the national narrative and, therefore, the national memory. The project has always been as much about the present as it is the past.

Wait, it gets even nuttier (or more outrageous, depending on your viewpoint):  Nikole tweets "The crazy thing is, the 1619 Project is using history and reporting to make an argument. It never pretended to be a history.

The crazy thing is, the 1619 Project is using history and reporting to make an argument. It never pretended to be a history. We explicitly state our aims and produced a series of essays. Critique was always expected, but the need to discredit it speaks to something else.

That's a hoot, cuz before you were called out for fabricating history, you claimed what you fabricated WAS history.  And the schools are gonna teach it as history, not fiction.

Great work, comrade.

Nikole also claims there's nothing exceptional about the U.S, writing "One group has monopolized [the national narrative] for too long in order to create this myth of exceptionalism. If their version is true, what do they have to fear of 1619?"

That kind of "reasoning" explains everything:  "If you know true history, why would you complain about us pushing the schools to teach fake history?"  Or "If you know real physics, why would you complain if we pushed the schools to teach that physics is really done by repeating magic incantations?"
