the founder of the New York Times’ 1619 Project penned a lengthy racist screed attacking all white people in 1995.
Nikole Hannah-Jones, the lead essayist on New York Times Magazine’s 1619 Project, wrote a letter to the editor in Notre Dame’s The Observer stating that “the white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world.”
Hannah-Jones claimed that the actions of European settlers and explorers such as Christopher Columbus were “acts of devils” and likens them to Hitler.
“[The whites] lasting monument was the destruction and enslavement of two races of people,” Hannah-Jones wrote.
Hannah-Jones claims Africans arrived in North America long before Europeans, but that unlike Europeans, Africans befriended and traded with the indigenous people. She claims pyramids in Mexico are a symbol of said friendship.
She then moves to the present and argues that white people today still take advantage of other people.
“The descendants of these savage people pump drugs and guns into the Black community, pack Black people into the squalor of segregated urban ghettos and continue to be bloodsuckers in our community,” she writes.
She ends her letter by pitying the author she was responding to and claiming that white people still struggle with a supremacy complex.
“But after everything that those barbaric devils did, I do not hate them,” she wrote. “I understand that because of some lacking, they needed to [sic] constantly prove their superiority.”
The Times did not respond to a request for comment on whether their employee maintained these beliefs.
Will she be canceled for this bigotry? If the races were reversed, we all know what would happen...
This is the same one who said that destroying property isn't violence. Amazing though; she can say things that if a white person had said, they would be called "racist."

Yes. Anytime I even have doubt as to whether something is racist, I just substitute black for white. The things said on this forum about whites (and Jews), as well as what we hear in real life by the the BLM followers are exemplifying the very racism that purport to be against. (Of course, they’re only against racism against blacks; they’re fine with bigotry against other races or religions.)
