@Valaguy1 @Bri_Elyse2 @kentuckyliz2 And it's sort of tone deaf to call a Black person racist against other Black people because you disagree with their place in a story about how slavery shaped the foundations of our nascent nation when PR didn't become part of US until after slavery was abolished. — PolitiTweet.org

@Valaguy1 @Bri_Elyse2 @kentuckyliz2 People want this project to be what they want it to be and done how they would have done it. I made explicit the boundaries and argument of my project. And that's it. — PolitiTweet.org
Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones
@Valaguy1 @Bri_Elyse2 @kentuckyliz2 I think you just need to be right here. 1619 Project is not the story of slavery. It's the story of how slavery as a foundation of the colonies that would form America when we became a nation has shaped that nation. That means PR and Florida are not part of that origin story. — PolitiTweet.org

@lazlo_writes @nd_wallingford @RobsueCastaneda @CharlesLGriggs Lastly, one can look at the renowned scholars who consulted on this curriculum, including Henry Louis Gates, and know they have the expertise to determine what is Black studies cannon, not you, not a politicians with no subject-matter expertise. — PolitiTweet.org

@lazlo_writes @nd_wallingford @RobsueCastaneda @CharlesLGriggs And certainly, Coates, a National Book Award winner and MacArthur genius, and Crenshaw, a renowned scholar, should without question be taught in any African American studies course, and indeed are taught across the country. — PolitiTweet.org
Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones
@lazlo_writes @nd_wallingford @RobsueCastaneda @CharlesLGriggs Once can also simply look historically and at contemporary politics to see that the writings of Crenshaw and Coates represent the larger political and social views of a majority of Black Americans. — PolitiTweet.org
Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones
@lazlo_writes @nd_wallingford @RobsueCastaneda @CharlesLGriggs You're kidding, right? First of all, for a Black studies course, Black people get to decide who are the important thinkers and writers to illuminate our experience. And one can't look at the Black support for the writing and ideas of both to determine their inclusion. — PolitiTweet.org

@kentuckyliz2 @Bri_Elyse2 Actually, the reparations claims for slavery for Puerto Ricans would be to Spain, as slavery there was over by the time they became a part of the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org

@noobasuar What was the point of your comment here? I'm never not going to be offended by racist language deployed against Black people. — PolitiTweet.org

@winfordwnt No. They deploy Black writers to legitimize the racist language here. — PolitiTweet.org

I am not giving oxygen to the rightwing media frenzy against the #1619hulu docuseries because I know they use the #1619Project for clicks, but I am so aghast and offended that the National Review would print this about this child just to make digs at this work. https://t.co/bYaNbROZ6j — PolitiTweet.org
