Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times writer Nikole Hannah-Jones once penned a polemical letter to her college newspaper denouncing the white race as "barbaric."
"The white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world," she wrote in a 1995 letter published in the Notre Dame Observer, according to a report by the Federalist. She added that white Europeans "committed genocide … in their greed and insatiable desire to destroy every non-white culture."
Her essay goes on to compare Christopher Columbus to Hitler, claim that Christianity was an "excuse" for genocide, and state the white race continues to subdue the black community in a similar fashion to this day.
"The descendants of these savage people pump drugs and guns into the Black community," she writes.
Hannah-Jones also implied that the descendants of white Europeans are racist because of their ancestors.
"After everything that those barbaric devils did, I do not hate them or their descendants," she says. "Because of some lacking, they needed ot [sic] constantly prove their superiority."
Hannah-Jones's editorial was written in response to an editorial by a fellow sophomore, Fred Kelly, who had defended Columbus's legacy after protests were staged against his murals hung in a campus building.
Hannah-Jones won the Pulitzer Prize for commentary in May for her "1619 Project" on the legacy of slavery in the United States. It has been frequently criticized by historians for its inaccuracies, such as its claim that the American Revolution was fought primarily to preserve slavery in the colonies.
In December 2019, five distinguished American historians wrote a letter to the magazine editor, saying they were "dismayed at some of the factual errors in the project and the closed process behind it."
The "1619 Project" has also been sent as curricula to thousands of classrooms with the help of the Pulitzer Center.
Those cartoon eyebrows are rough.
Africa had no real civilization not created by caucasians
A bunch of mud homes and temples in Mali simply doesn’t count Despite woke anthropologist efforts
No wheeel
No phonetic alphabet
Tropical Africa is the worlds laggard
And we are paying that price for my ancestors buying them from the yankee calvinists who brought them here
I do apologize we didn’t send them back like my ancestor William Dunbar of Natchez tried to do
Hat tip Ibo and Tutsi tribes ....they at least have tried to better tropical Africa against the retarded IQ masses that have ALWAYS resorted to brute violence borne of jealousy of their betters
This statement like the 1619 Project show a profound ignorance of history.
The Arabs of North Africa are the hands down practitioners of commit[ing] genocide … in their greed and insatiable desire to destroy every non-[Muslim] culture
There is no race/culture that comes close equaling let alone surpassing the Muslim hoards that swept out of Arabia in the Seventh Century to rape, pillage and conquer Muslims are the all-time winners when it comes to the said crimes in human history.
There is no argument there is no question. Millions dead, thousands of cities looted and destroyed by Muslims.
And what were Sub-Saharan African people living like, when white people first found them?
Imagine what America would be like today if our ancestors did not import Black African slaves.
Her hair is red, just like her political beliefs.
CC
So she’s about 75% barbaric?
Mocha brown c***.
Has this imbecile ever heard of Hutus
I actually know a couple Tutsi people.
Appropriating ranga hair
Fanning the flames of civil war.
Haters gotta hate.
Nikole’s message is pure hate, regardless of her disclaimers. It is an Abomination.
She ain’t never been to no African countries, I presume.
Well, Nikole, there are flights every day leaving for destinations in southern Africa, take one. I’m tired of the constant whining, bitching and complaining by what amounts to a minority of the 13% of Blacks who make up our population.
Sure sounds a lot like:
“The Jewish race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world.”
Now, where have we heard that before? And what followed?
Wakanda isn’t real?
Never built a ship that could sail out of sight of land.
