Jan 30, 2023Pure fictional rubbish. When will Hollywood stop promoting this hateful, divisive agenda? These people clearly hate America.
-
Jan 31, 2023Absolute lying, garbage, divisive woke trash from a race grifter! Complete and utter b.s!

Feb 6, 2023Wow I can’t believe this made it to the screen. Hollywood is embarrassing
-
Feb 20, 2023Pure work of fiction. This does a disservice to the viewer and its target audience.

Feb 28, 2023Excellent show based on a podcast that I still think about regularly. If only more people would watch it rather than assume they know their opinion based on hearing their favorite right wing talk show yell hate about it.
-
Feb 12, 2023Great series, well-researched, deftly handled, packed with proven truths that clearly upset racists who subscribe to Metacritic.

Mar 17, 2023Absolute far-left garbage. The historical inaccuracies are too numerous to count. I am dumb founded that a studio actually paid money for this crap. Wow, in the worst way, wow.

Anyone who follows the news will be familiar with many issues the series addresses, which makes some episodes feel a bit remedial. But at its best, The 1619 Project makes astute—and highly personal—connections between the antebellum and pre-civil-rights past, and a present in which Black Americans still disproportionately face police violence, workplace exploitation, and other forms of inequality.
-
Whether you’ve read Hannah-Jones’ work or are coming to it for the first time, The 1619 Project is a fascinating look at the Black population’s significant contributions to the building of the U.S., with a nuanced approach that was never in our U.S. History books.
-
It succeeds both technically and as a piece of art, skillfully weaving shots of Black Americans with firsthand accounts, explanations, interviews and stories that have been consistently omitted from the historical record.
