Never thought I would see the day when the World Socialist Web Site is a go to site for US History than the NY Slimes.

I live in Virginia and have no problem with sites like Colonial Williamsburg and Mount Veron giving voice to the slaves who lived and worked there. I do have a problem when the NY Times puts that experience as THE narrative not A IMPORTANT narrartive.

The Communists have to go. There is no place in a constitutional republic for them. They have taken over our government at all levels by disguising themselves as caring, sensitive, progressives. They have fooled the young people and the suburban women and bought the minorities with other peoples money.

‘In essays, stories, poems, podcast episodes, and more, the Times has grappled with how slavery shaped all that followed.’

this country will sacrifice itself to exorcise the sin of slavery that hasn’t existed in over a century...

1776 is the year for me to remember. My 1st cousin 6 times removed died August 27, 1776 in the battle of Long Island. I have never found any slaves in my family. Only 3% of the population had slaves and most of them were purchased from Muslims in Africa.

True dat.

I read at least one of the interviews they published about this, and it was a very, very good piece. Truly amazing it came from the Commies, but I thank them muchly for it.

I feel like there was someone over there who was just completely intellectually outraged by the BS in the Times and did something about it.

They really got the ball rolling on calling this malarkey out for what it is.

The true history is either not known by these dolts due to the failure of the American education system or they don’t want to know because it wont fit their narrative. I side with either.
