<p>A group of scholars is demanding the Pulitzer Board revoke writer Nikole Hannah-Jones&#8217; Pulitzer Prize for her introductory essay in The New York Times&#8217; 1619 Project, in which she claimed that the American Revolution was fought in large part to preserve slavery.</p>
<p>&#8220;We call on the Pulitzer Prize Board to rescind the 2020 Prize for Commentary awarded to Nikole Hannah-Jones for her lead essay in &#8216;The 1619 Project,'&#8221; <a href="https://www.nas.org/blogs/article/pulitzer-board-must-revoke-nikole-hannah-jones-prize" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the statement begins</a>, which was signed by 21 professors, academics, and historians. &#8220;That essay was entitled, &#8216;Our democracy’s founding ideals were false when they were written.&#8217; But it turns out the article itself was false when written, making a large claim that protecting the institution of slavery was a primary motive for the American Revolution, a claim for which there is simply no evidence.&#8221;</p>
