Requests:  0 Summary:  "The animating idea of The 1619 Project is that our national narrative is more accurately told if we begin not on July 4, 1776, but in late August of 1619, when a ship arrived in Jamestown bearing a cargo of twenty to thirty enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival inaugurated a barbaric and unprecedented system of chattel slavery that would last for the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country's original sin, but it is more than that: It is the country's very origin. The 1619 Project tells this new origin story, placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the center of the story we tell ourselves about who we are as a country. Orchestrated by the editors of The New York Times Magazine, led by MacArthur "genius" and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, this collection of essays and historical vignettes includes some of the most outstanding journalists, thinkers, and scholars of American history and culture--including Linda Villarosa, Jamelle Bouie, Jeneen Interlandi, Matthew Desmond, Wesley Morris, and Bryan Stevenson. Together, their work shows how the tendrils of 1619--of slavery and resistance to slavery--reach into every part of our contemporary culture, from voting, housing and healthcare, to the way we sing and dance, the way we tell stories, and the way we worship. Interstitial works of flash fiction and poetry bring the history to life through the imaginative interpretations of some of our greatest writers. The 1619 Project ultimately sends a very strong message: We must have a clear vision of this history if we are to understand our present dilemmas. Only by reckoning with this difficult history and trying as hard as we can to understand its powerful influence on our present, can we prepare ourselves for a more just future"-- Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Sixteen Checked In   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked out 06/30/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 973 Si Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 4 Next
