Paper details:
1619 Research Project: Instructions With this essay, we will be completing a rhetorical analysis for the New York Times’ “1619 Project” and the controversy surrounding it. We will read Nikole Hannah-Jones’ introductory essay, a number of smaller essays from the project, a letter from history professors who seek to admonish the project, and an essay about the surrounding controversy. Then we will conduct independent research to develop our thesis statement on whether we find the critique of the 1619 project credible. Here are the steps to complete. 1. Read and annotate “The Idea of America” by Nikole Hannah-Jones (pages 14–26 of the pdf) (Links to an external site.)
