Oprah should be ashamed of herself, falling for this Marxist, revisionist, racist “1619 Project”.
All my remaining respect for her just went down the crapper.
There is a 1776 project. The organizer was on TV this past week with Mark Levin. I don’t recall his name but this Black American man was very wise and inspiring.
