Left-wing Tyrants

Nikole Hannah-Jones, the creator of the 1619 Project, was on "Meet The Press" yesterday.  It would have been a great time for host Chuck Todd to press her about the many inaccuracies of the 1619 Project, but that would have been real journalism.  Instead, Todd asked this fake historian to tell us how to teach history.  Her response was revealing.  She said:

"I don't really understand this idea that parents should decide what's being taught. I'm not a professional educator. I don't have a degree in social studies or science. . .

"When the candidate [Democrat Terry McAuliffe] said that he didn't think parents should be deciding what's being taught in school, he was panned for that. But that's just the fact. . .  I think we should leave that to the educators."

She then added that our society "is veering towards authoritarianism" because several states are trying to ban her radical 1619 Project from their public schools.

The chutzpah of Nikole Hannah-Jones is unbelievable! 

She admits that she's not a professional educator.  She's right about that.  She's a professional left-wing agitator.

But if she's not a professional educator, why did she try so hard to land a faculty position at the University of North Carolina?  And on what basis did she demand that it be a tenured position?  And why is she trying so hard to push the 1619 Project curriculum into our schools?

Parents, policymakers and state legislators are right to ban the 1619 Project.  It's garbage!  Numerous professional historians have thoroughly debunked it.  It has no business in our schools.

But she thinks banning her radical screed is a sign of oppression.  It's actually the other way around.  Forcing a false narrative into our schools and indoctrinating our children is a sign of leftist authoritarianism.  It's what socialists and Marxists always do!
