      You wouldn't know it from reading this piece from @baseballcrank, but academic historians still disagree about how to understand the place of slavery in the coming of the Revolution. Wilentz's preoccupation with this is just downright sad.https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/sean-wilentz-fires-back-on-the-1619-project-and-the-climate-of-anti-history/?taid=6149c2f2e56df4000174e53b&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter …

      Wilentz is 100% correct & the 1619 project is at least 30% pure garbage. Yes, I am credentialed, published, & credible; & happy to make the case. But why bother when Wilentz & MANY others have done so ably & irrefutably. The 1619 theory on history of police Siri: case in point.

      I wrote about the Hannah-Jones origin of policing theory. It was indeed shockingly bad history.https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/04/no-modern-policing-did-not-originate-with-slavery/ …

      It's hilarious to me that you trace this theory back to HNJ, when any number of legal scholars and historians have written on this subject going back years. You really need to find a new hobby.

      I responded to her because she popularized it. But it is such hilariously bad history that any scholar who is peddling it really needs to find a new profession. The lineage of modern American policing from Robert Peel's London bobbies is extraordinarily well-documented.

          Let me know when you publish a scholarly study in response.

          I assume that you consider the numerous historians, newspapers, & law enforcement organizations & museums I cited - including NHJ's own cited source - to be unqualified hacks?
