Remember Michele Bachmann and her hubby Marcus, or rather how could we forget, but at least she missed Heritage Month. Attacking the 1619 Project does seem to be a bit passe. Considering how plaintiffs can now be manufactured by RWNJs, she could raise her standing with the meta-oriented thinkers in the GOP by giving those ‘evil’ “Black historians” subscriptions to the Journal of Historical Review. Just another attempt by the GOP to erase history
BREAKING: Trumper Michele Bachmann goes on a shocking rant, declares that the enslavement of millions of Africans in America was not “sinful” — and that the Black historians who are teaching the youth about the centuries of slavery in America are “evil.” But it gets even worse… Bachman then accused today’s Black historians of “rewriting American history,” something that she says is “appalling” to her and other white conservatives, who she claims are “very motivated” to whitewash slavery. Projecting, much? Bachman, Trump, and the rest of the Republican Party have spent years trying to rewrite history by claiming that slavery wasn’t so bad — and now she has the gall to accuse Black historians of rewriting history simply for telling the TRUTH about America’s greatest sin. x BREAKING: Trumper Michele Bachmann goes on a shocking rant, declares that the enslavement of millions of Africans in America was not “sinful” — and that the Black historians who are teaching the youth about the centuries of slavery in America are “evil.”
But it gets even worse…… pic.twitter.com/j7usYYYqD6 — Occupy Democrats (@OccupyDemocrats) July 6, 2023 Former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) celebrated America's birthday by declaring that slavery was not a "sinful" part of the nation's founding. In a July 4 appearance on the Christian program Flashpoint, Bachmann was asked how America's youth viewed the country's inception. She responded by calling the 1619 Project's efforts to document the effects of slavery "evil." "Well, I think sometimes when evil comes into the world and when falsehoods come into our nation, people react to that," Bachmann said. "There's the 1619 Project that came in, and that is a rewriting of American history, a false view of American history. And a lot of people were absolutely appalled by that." www.rawstory.com/...
