“The book in question is The Grimkes: The Legacy of Slavery in an American Family by historian Kerri K. Greenidge. Following a Tufts University review that uncovered multiple citation issues and factual inaccuracies, publisher Liveright removed the book from its website, and Greenidge is no longer employed at the university.” Google AI. Published in 2022 to widespread acclaim, the book won the American Historical Association’s Joan Kelly Memorial Prize. It shifted the narrative of the famous white abolitionist Grimké sisters to focus heavily on their multiracial, formerly enslaved nephews.” Google AI.
This is exactly the topic that the Left would be extolling and written by a black lady academic to boot so no surprise then that they are throwing prizes at her! Greenidge is allegedly accusing her white critics of racism but in fact if they are correct then she is not only a hack academic but also a racist herself! This may well be DEI at its worst and just like Jussie Smollet is only doing harm to her fellow black people who actually earned their success! But hey every race of human being has their assholes.
And that is all I’m going to say about that!
