New York Times Magazine reporter and founder of the controversial 1619 Project Nikole Hannah-Jones was sharply mocked by critics over the weekend for falsely claiming that Europe was "not a continent."
The left-wing writer took to Twitter Sunday to make the odd claim, appearing driven by others' concerns over the ongoing invasion of Ukraine by the Russian military. She also referred to such alarm over people that "appear White" as a racial "dog whistle.

“I DEMAND you pay attention to ME!!”
Funny. The Budweiser cans I’ve been drinking from clearly show Europe as a continent. 🍻
who?
I remember when I took Physical Geography in college, the instructor fudged on this issue. He basically said.. ‘you can call Europe a ‘continent’ or Asia a ‘continent’ but it’s ‘Eurasia’ that actually fits the definition. He didn’t make the same distinction for pre-Suez Africa. Upshot was Asia and Europe are continents because it’s conventional...’
Nikole is a special kind of racist.
The woke crowd invents words of war declaration of war every day. This is all a smokes screen regarding “systemic racism” when it is communism which is systemic.
Who is she calling white, by the way? She is doing the communist bidding of getting her “colored” culture destroyed…
Europe is part of Eurasia, rather than a continent in its own right. However, the fact that the New York Slimes continues to employ and endorse that unreconstructed unrepentant racist shows that the Slimes is itself racist and not a source of legit news.
Proof you needn’t be educated to be a race hustler.
She only cares about her racist narrative she has been trying to sell.
These people are monumentally ignorant and dangerously stupid. Fine spokespeople for their cause.
The Ural mountains to the Black sea, then the Bosphorus strait are the barrier between Europe and Asia according to my weak recollection of geography lessons of many years ago.
But things change, I guess.
The Ural mountains is what I was taught too.
Sounds like she is mentally ill denier of reality. That is why it is so easy for her to create fake history her fake news employer NY Times commissioner her to write.
What’s going on with Norah Jones?
I’ve been trying to contact her every since she sang to me and asked me to “come away with me in the night”.
I’ve got a bag packed.
You can reach it without getting your feet wet.
So technically there are only four continents.
EraAsifica, America, Australia and Antarctica.
Of course Antarctica is covered with frozen water which means technically it is under water and Australia is just a really big island so we are down to two continents.
And EraAsifica and America used to be connected by a land bridge so we are back in the Pangaea era.
Watch out for dinosaurs.
Well, SHE may be a continent.
Woof-woof!
She has a point, I mean who cares about black Christians being slaughtered in Nigeria by Muslims?
