Original Note:
1619 is the year the history of African American slavery in what became the USA began, and the date is clearly stated in the posted image. Everyone with even a passing knowledge of history should know it is not the founding date of the USA, so NNN. The statement is factual. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_the_colonial_history_of_the_United_States https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Africans_in_Virginia
