the premodern history of the United States included a great deal of barbaric, uncivilized behavior: the conquest of Native American tribes

This is world history - every square inch of land in the entire world has been fought over, blood spilled and wars enacted.

What infuriates me about Howard Zinn and the 1619 project is that it blames white people uniquely for the sins of slavery and genocide against native people. As if this has happened nowhere else in the world at any time, ever.

What they never mention is that it is whites, first in England and then the U.S. that put an end to slavery in the Western Hemisphere - at a cost of a great many lives in the case of the U.S.

If Biden is elected, Zinn and the 1619 project will become the public school curriculum and anyone that challenges it will be in grave danger of having his career destroyed.

Zinn is very old, hopefully he will assume room temperature soon.
