The 10 Most Absurd Claims From Hulu’s ‘1619 Project’ Series

Activist “journalist” Nikole Hannah-Jones’ along with Oprah Winfrey, who served as an executive producer, and some handpicked historians and commentators brought Hannah-Jones’ revisionist history to the screen and it’s just as bad, if not worse, than her original writings of The 1619 Project that were published by The New York Times Magazine back in August of 2019.
