  • It is our great pleasure and honor to welcome Professor Nikole Hannah-Jones, Knight Chair in Race and Journalism at the Howard University School of Communications at La Maison Française.
    Together with Steve Clemons, Founding Editor at Large of the new global news company Semafor, Professor Nikole Hannah-Jones will discuss the 1619 Project, which earned her the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Commentary. Based on articles originally featured in The New York Times Magazine and later published as an anthology of essays and poetry, The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story led to a fascinating and complex national and international conversation on the role of race in American history.

    I am so happy that Nikole Hannah Jones got inspired about 1619 as a high school student.
    Her book “The 1619 Project “ is one of the best works of literature I’ve ever read.
    Thank you for sharing this video.

    Prof Nicole Hannah-Jones is such a brilliant, well researched scholar. Its the reason she is so accomplished. Currently reading the 1619 project and Im amazed at the depth of knowledge and information she introduces the reader to. For instance, Nazi Germany borrowed racist ideals from USA. She and her allied historians so thoroughly contradicts our understanding of Amer history we as Amers have been miseducated about. Thank you professor Hannah Jones, Amers of all stripes owe you a debt of gratitude. Ida B. Wells would be proud.

      He's cutting her off because he is excited and has branched her last phrase to another thought and impetuously wants her to help him follow what he feels is an interesting thought. All humans do this. It takes training to listen and absorb without trying to dart ahead.
      Also, I saw at times she dropped her head and smiled. This is a teacher saying to herself, "He's listening and thinking. I've got him now. This is where we should be."
      She's having a conversation not giving a lecture. He's not attacking her. He's asking genuine questions coming from the new thoughts she has given him. In the conversation, she is acting as a mentor. She welcomes the questions and through evaluation of the questions sees what more she needs to tell him, how to lead him forward or bring him back on track.
      They are not adversaries. He is a willing student and she is enjoying his growth. He's Erkel (Welcome Back, Kotter) frantically raising his hand.

    and, contrary to other comments, I do not think she was interrupted too much - the gentleman to me appeared genuine in his curiosity, & like so many 'educated' successful white males who are comfortable asserting their intellectual sovereignty, only to find the occasion where, "Honest to God - we didn't really know!"

    I also learn something new every time she speaks and I fact check her. For one, she is correct in that most Americans do not read past the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence. She is right, the last
    crime in the "list of repeated injuries and usurpations" are "domestic insurrection" and the killing of colonists by "Indian Savages" (aka the people who were here first with whom we had no intention of sharing the natural resources).
    I can see how she points and says that "domestic insurrection" was only being brought by enslaved peoples. But I believe that the people who were the target of insurrection were also working to ensure poor people without property wouldn't join the enslaved people in insurrection. This is not me trying to inject a fact but to find out if they had non-enslaved allies. Bringing insurrection requires help from those who agree with your plight and can move about with relative freedom to gain advantage. Otherwise you're going to be punished for killing a master, but not killing the practice.

    There is a letter that a man named Horace Greely wrote to Abraham Lincoln asking him to use Black slaves to fight in the Civil War. Frederick Douglass even kept trying to convince Lincoln too to use the African Slaves. Lincoln wrote back to that man, Horace Greely, that HE DID NOT CARE, one way or the other, whether the slaves would be free or not--Lincoln's OWN WORDS (meaning...if HE allowed the slaves to fight, the objective was NOT their freedom!!!). He explained that HIS (LINCOLN) OBJECTIVE was to BREAK THE SOUTH FROM SUCCESSION FROM THE U.S AS A UNION, so TO END THE CIVIL WAR!!! So, HE was racist and NOT THE CONCERNED and the so-called honorable man, that White America & my ignorant Black American people think/thought that he was!!!!

      @rosebudd7063 Lincoln change his mind about letting the Blacks fight in the Civil War for one and one reason only, the North was losing the war. If he had made that decision sooner they may have ended the war sooner and some 700,000 men wouldn't have died. Your right Lincoln in his mind wasn't fighting the war to end slavery, but the South thought he was. And because the south was the first ones to fire on the north, which started the war. The Civil War was about SLAVERY! Seven Southern States stated it in their founding State Constitutions and they stated it in their National constitution. They didn't state State Rights or Taxes. Can we let go of the "Lost Cause Narrative" of the South that came alone after the North return control to their States, 12 years after the Civil War. Can we please stated what was stated by the PEOPLE WHO WAS THERE AND WROTE IT DOWN ON PAPER. God bless!

      @@darylstephens1391 Lincoln wanted to break the South and I already knew that Lincoln changed his mind about allowing the black population to fight & to set the slaves free to achieve his goal because the North was losing! Lincoln did not care about slavery and ending it because he was against it. He only cared about winning the war and what I said about breaking them because he knew that if he 'jacked up' their economic capacity, that would defeat them. I don't know what you are talking about with some lost cause narrative and I don't care. The move to end slavery was strictly a military strategy on Lincoln's part, not humanitarian, which is MY point!!!!! MY maternal and paternal great, great grandmothers and fathers and their parents, aunts, uncles, and siblings were slaves in Georgia! My maternal great, great grandmother spoke about her/their experience and what was happening at the time with her grandson, my 100 year old grandfather, his 101 & 102 year old sisters which backed up what I shared in my initial comment.
