  • Nevada is the latest state taking on critical race theory. Parents are now clashing over curriculum proposals. In Reno, people packed a school board meeting as trustees considered expanding the K-5 curriculum to include more teaching about equity, diversity and racism. Opponents say the proposal would lead to the teaching of critical race theory. A conservative group even suggested teachers wear body cameras to ensure they aren't teaching lessons, including topics like "The 1619 Project." Dr. Peter Wood, president of the National Association of Scholars, and Dr. Greg Carr, the chair of the Department of Afro-American studies at Howard University, join Marc Lamont Hill on "Black News Tonight" to discuss if slavery is foundational to the United States.

    Great show Dr. Hill. I always enjoy Dr. Carr-(TSU). You cannot in any way minimize African contribution to America we did the the work. Dr. Carr your point “They are not interested learning they are interesting winning elections ” sums it up best . Most of states creating these laws rank low in education. Hopefully the bright inquisitive students with a quest for knowledge discover the truths ,unfortunately many of the other will probably become politicians. That was a win Dr. Carr

      Isn't that the purpose of a discussion or a debate? To counter the premise.
      So if the 1619 project premise is that African American slaves are solely the basis of the formation of America then the opposition would be that white people contributed also.
      It's intellectual reductionism, even cowardice, to then attack the person bringing whites into the conversation as "here we go again"

      Incorrect, culturally and within government all groups had a hand in the structure. Native Americans provided a practice framework for democracy that helped our own, non existed in Europe and black Americans helped ensure many of the rights we all enjoy today. The colonial government is not what we use today. As far as the constitution that document was actually informed by a wealth of sources including the quran and letters to native people.
      Before Columbus came Spain was highly populated by African Muslims and had Muslim rule. To suggest that this culture had no part in early America when it was a feature before 1619 is a eurocentric and limited scope imo.

    Slavery has a major part in the ideology of the people we called the founding father to dismiss the idea that slavery was just a piece is like comparing darkness to daylight, white hate, and overtly white racism was embedded in the fabric of this country to say that the European model shaped the mindset and ultimately how slave and slavery would be the blueprint of American society. When humans were no more than animals says this was the mindset of the enslavers and the rest of Americans. Talk about the lasting effects on slaves even today. My grandparents were slaves so to give me a perspective grounded in opinions rather than how people who suffered this hardship are disingenuous at best and an outright lie at worst.

    Errrr! Ships were created thousands of years before Europeans got to American and were not 'invented' by Europeans by any stretch of historic accuracy. The boat was the main source of transportation, as far as Europeans are concerned, from the days of the Greek/Roman Empires, supposedly, until the early 20th century. Yet a ship in the class of the Mayflower, Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria, has not ever been produced dating back to this time period. Trojan Wars, Roman Conquest, Age of Exploration - Spanish Armada - Trans Atlantic Slave Trade(15 million individuals transported 260ish at time, on a 2mo voyage 1-way) - British Navy(Pre 1776). Not ONE boat of any of these era, anywhere. Not moored in historic harbors, or museums, or on History Ch. documentaries, @ the Smithsonian, or on display @ historic wreckage sites on beaches WORLDWIDE, not even on an episode of Jacque Cousteau who was underwater his whole damn life, did one make an appearance. Don't let the smooth taste fool ya. That's the sharp twang of Bullcrap Lager, brewed from distilled waters at the base the Caucus Mountains, maybe.

The people that made the ships didn't have slavery in mind, they had willing passengers in mind and then it was used for slavery. His point was to differentiate the two groups, not dehumanizing one of them.
