Thank you.

In an effort to start this out with an olive branch I want to say this because it isn't said enough.

This rejected line in the original draft of the declaration is pretty much only relevant due to The 1619 Project.

We would not have to worry about who brought slavery here and who implemented slavery here if The New York Times didn't say the U.S. invented slavery and that the United States is responsible for slavery going back to the U.S.'s actual founding in 1619 and the Founders tried to defend slavery and desperately wanted to keep slavery around.

This whole story line of theirs is so easy to disprove with original sources. It is sad that we who love the Founders are losing the argument. Ask 10 random k12 kids, they all think the U.S. is racist and will state 1619.

Post 1 itself is a history teacher who didn't even know this rejected line was written. That's how badly we're losing to outright lies. The teachers do not know because they too were lied to, and the facts have so few vehicles to come to light.

The sick thing is people like you think slavery is the only part of US history that is relevant. In fact 90% of US history has NOTHING to do with slavery. You are a trouble maker. Race hustler.
