Discussion of The New York Times 1619 Project


Please join us for a discussion of The New York Times 1619 Project. 

1619 second try


The 1619 Project is a major initiative from The New York Times observing the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding, and placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of the story we tell ourselves about who we are.

For our first session, please read Nikole Hannah-Jones’ seminal article, “Our democracy’s founding ideals were false when they were written. Black Americans have fought to make them true.”, starting on page 14.
