“The Undemocratic Impulses of American Democracy”

Jamelle Bouie for the NYT Magazine, part of their 1619 Project (“The 1619 Project is a major initiative from The New York Times observing the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding, and placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of the story we tell ourselves about who we are.”)
