In recent years, there have been several documents and documentaries published that present a past that a lot of people want to forget or change. Beginning in 1619, a year before Pilgrims dropped anchor in Plymouth, enslaved African people arrived on the shores of Jamestown on the ship White Lion. Urged by Nikole Hannah-Jones, an American investigative journalist, [1] the New York Times has documented this in its 1619 Project[2] and in the new origins story in Hannah-Jones’s book of the same name.[3] The project aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding it with the beginning of American slavery and exploring the consequences and contributions of Black Americans at the center of the story of America.
