Trish’s Reviews > The 1619 Project: A New Origin Story > Status Update

The shock, emotions, disgust, realizations hit hard. I have a vague remembrance of a childhood where race and slavery wasn't discussed with sufficient clarity. Even the short lessons seemed embarrassed, unable or unwilling to reveal the actual truth of it. I am grateful for these lessons, pointing the direction for learning as much as we can stomach. And am SO grateful for help in reading the material.
