The 1619 Project – Episode 2 – Part 2 – A Commentary

I will be watching and commenting on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/thecontrabandwagon) on this brand-new Hulu show based on the 1619 Project by Professor Nikole Hannah-Jones. We already covered episode 1 so we will continue with episode 2!

I will be pausing to add my commentary and insight throughout watching the first half of the first episode. There are six one-hour episodes in total so you can expect twelve episodes of the show on this series (not necessarily back to back though)

Here is the show’s description on Hulu: “Hulu’s six-part 1619 Docuseries is an expansion of ‘The 1619 Project’ created by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones and the New York Times Magazine. The series seeks to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the very center of our national narrative”
