Biden offers grants to teach children U.S. 'inherently racist': Program 'gives the stamp of federal approval' to absurd 'sources'

Last October, two members of the 1776 Commission, Hillsdale College President Larry Arnn and Hoover Institution fellow Victor Davis Hanson, were among the professors, academics and historians who signed a letter urging the Pulitzer Prize Board to rescind its award to the author of the "1619 Project," Nikole Hannah-Jones.

Posted on the website of the National Association of Scholars, the letter asserts there is "simply no evidence" for her claim that "protecting the institution of slavery was a primary motive for the American Revolution."

The Biden administration plans to offer grants for K-12 history classes that use curriculum claiming the United States is inherently racist.

The funding will support the teaching of Marxist-based critical race theory and the "1619 Project," the New York Times series that contends the United States was founded on slavery, regarding it as the defining characteristic of the American experience, the Washington Times reported.
