Original Note:
Much of the 1619 Project has been recognized as a valuable history. But some of the controversy stemmed from actual problems in the project's claims, in particular that protecting slavery motivated the American Revolution, a claim not supported by historical sources. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_1619_Project#Motivations_for_the_American_Revolution
