Description

The 1619 Project: A Visual Experience by Nikole Hannah-Jones and The New York Times Magazine is an illustrated edition that reframes the American founding story, placing slavery and resistance at its center. Beautiful words and imagery come together to create a powerful experience, inviting reflection on the nation's complex history. This book offers seven chapters from the original project, featuring newly commissioned artwork and archival images. It presents a revolutionary idea: a new national origin story that begins with the arrival of enslaved people in 1619. By reckoning with this difficult history, we can prepare ourselves for a more just future. The result is a thought-provoking book that combines stunning visuals with profound words, encouraging readers to contemplate what a nation owes those who have contributed so much yet received so little.
