Fascinating look at history through the lens of the African American experience. Pay no attention to the naysayers in conservative media. Listen and judge for yourself.

Tremendously moving and well done. "Untrue" if you are in denial about the legacy of racism in the U.S. 1619 has become target of Republican attacks and attacks by SOME (not all!) elderly white historians, territorial over their claim to expertise. Plenty of other historians support the work, which is just magnificent as podcast (and as written project). P.S. If you are racist, you won't like this podcast.

U.S. History is build on racism and discrimination and this podcast illuminates exactly that. The podcast spans interesting bridges between the past and the reality to day. This is an important project for the U.S.

AMERICA is a whole continent, not a country. Learn the difference.

Description

In August of 1619, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. America was not yet America, but this was the moment it began. No aspect of the country that would be formed here has been untouched by the 250 years of slavery that followed. On the 400th anniversary of this fateful moment, it is time to tell the story. “1619” is a New York Times audio series hosted by Nikole Hannah-Jones.
