The fact most Americans of African ancestry also have European ancestry (but didn't inherit any wealth from the slave owner/rapist) is definitely part of the pattern of wealth and privilege.

Relevant trivia. In 1948, the South African Nationalist Party (pro apartheid) took over Parliament with under 40% of the vote, owing to gerrymandering. They didn’t win a majority of the (almost all white) electorate for a decade. Note it took violence to reverse this.

A country that sells an ambassadorship for $1 million to a thug who sets about concocting conspiracies against domestic opponents and demanding other governments join in has a major corruption problem. That country, however, is NOT Ukraine.

@ZaidJilani In Virginia, slavery was taught like this. The "problem" with the 1619 Project is it made clear that the wealth of the Colonies and later the USA was inseparable from, indeed based on, slave labor and stolen land. Not a side chapter like a biography of Betsy Ross and her flag.
