The 1619 project is correct, what you posted was the big lie. Slaves did land here in 1619. Anthony Johnson was not the first slave owner and the picure you have posted is not Anthony Johnson. The photo is of Lewis Hayden, an escaped slave from in Kentucky. Anthony Johnson died over 100 years before the invention of photograph.The 1619 Project curriculum taught in over 4,500 schools — Frederick County Public Schools has the option - Medill News Service (northwestern.edu)
I keep hearing how the "uneducation system" of the United Sates is going to push the 1619 project upon the young kids, so they can be punished for being white. Yet in 1619, there were not slaves in the "British Colonies" until 1655. And it was British rule that made blacks permanent slaves, for a black slave owner.

White kids learning history should not make them feel bad, but such thinking is evidence of a white supremacist attitude of it's fine for blacks to learn they were slave but whites must always be shown to be great.
Carol Hefner was wrong. No one black owned theshipping companies that transported slaves. Slaves did not just decide to live with their former masters because they were loved and treated like family.
