The docuseries weaves Nikole’s own story with the story of our country. A Pulitzer Prize-winner and one of TIME's most influential people in the world, Nikole has spent her career proving that when we understand the history of Black America, we understand the history and the future of all America-which makes us better equipped to fight for racial justice today. "Black Americans have always been foundational to the idea of American freedom," says Nikole Hannah-Jones. Watch the trailer for the 1619 Project series below: “It really is talking about America today.” “ The 1619 Project is not a history,” Nikole says. She offers us the chance to gain not only a better understanding of our past, but also the tools to make real change in the present. Nikole talks to real people-from workers to musicians to mothers-whose compelling stories give us a larger picture of Black America and America as a whole. Each episode is based on an essay from the original anthology, exploring concepts like democracy and music. She turned the anthology into a #1 New York Times bestselling book, and now she’s hosting and executive producing the 1619 Project docuseries-which debuts today! Nikole is the creator of The 1619 Project, the hit anthology which garnered international recognition and acclaim.
