Debunking the 1619 Project

Exposing the Plan to Divide America

By: Mary Grabar

Narrated by: Liisa Ivary

It’s the New “Big Lie”.

According the New York Times’ “1619 Project”, America was not founded in 1776, with a declaration of freedom and independence, but in 1619 with the introduction of African slavery into the New World. Ever since then, the “1619 Project” argues, American history has been one long sordid tale of systemic racism.

Celebrated historians have debunked this, more than 200 years of American literature disproves it, parents know it to be false, and yet it is being promoted across America as an integral part of grade school curricula and unquestionable orthodoxy on college campuses.

The “1619 Project” is not just bad history, it is a danger to our national life, replacing the idea, goal, and reality of American unity with race-based obsessions that we have seen play out in violence, riots, and the destruction of American monuments - not to mention the wholesale rewriting of America’s historical and cultural past.

In her new book, Debunking the 1619 Project, scholar Mary Grabar, shows, in dramatic fashion, just how full of flat-out lies, distortions, and noxious propaganda the “1619 Project” really is. It is essential listening for every concerned parent, citizen, school board member, and policymaker.

Truth Bomb

Grabar provides the proof why the 1919 Project is propaganda, not history. We should not view it as something that should be taught in schools. Historiography 101 teaches that we don't cherry-pick sources to shape our narrative. The narrative should flow out of the research just as we we box-in the answer to an algebraic equation. Poor history (or ideology disguised as history) causes ridiculousness such as the tearing down the statue of Hans Christian Heg, an abolitionist.

Wake up!

Great read. The narrator put in some serious effort and was very animated and enjoyable.

Brilliant and balanced

The author pointed out assertions of the 1619 Project and puts them in their proper perspective. in fact, at times it seems like Grabar is pushing those assertions only to next show their exaggerations and misinterpretations. The 1619 Project is debunked and shown to be what it really is, propaganda.

the truth

love this book, it put to shame the fiction book of 1619. more people need to review this to understand the truth

A Must Read!

Mary Grabar goes way beyond just Debunking the 1619 Project. She finishes the book by demolishing the tenets of the 1619 Project using names, dates and reviews of actual real historians.

It's Grabar's volume of information coming down like a sledgehammer on The 1619 Project's baseless accusations that sets it apart from other books.

Grabar leaves Hannah-Jones no quarter, leaving the polemicist up to her chin in debunked lies and racist rhetoric.
