    Pres Trump claims the 1619 project distorts and "rewrites" American history. He says the project wrongly says America was founded on "oppression not freedom." Fact: At America's founding, kidnapped enslaved black people were exploited. The consequences of slavery continue today.

        Exactly. There are different perspectives to the history we were taught, as we were taught it in short snippets from the white property owners' perspective. There were other sides to the stories. Our society needs to know them to get a full understanding.

        He’s giving a speech to promote white supremacy. That’s what this is.

        It was founded on the idea of freedom and established through the act of oppression. There i fixed it for everyone.

        Our country was built on the backs of slaves. This is a fact. We can't rewrite history, but we can learn from it and hopefully use this knowledge to understand how to make a better future for us and our children.

        Trumpism itself is an attempt to not only rewrite history but to also rewrite the present
