Take a look at the Discovery Walk section of this comment and tell me they didn’t/don’t have some sort of similar (further) history rewrite in store for us…
But as researchers—and married couple—Asamoah Nkwanta and Janet E. Barber argued in the Journal of Humanistic Mathematics in 2014, Banneker rarely receives credit for this remarkable scientific find.
Speaking with Billy Jean Louis of the Baltimore Sun, Nkwanta says Banneker’s identity as a Black man has “absolutely” played a role in this oversight.
“[W]e have a long way to go with correcting U.S. history in a sense [of] getting the correct history out there so we all [can] be well-informed of the past,” the scholar tells the Sun.
Same as you pointed out, America at the time was the worst, and this free black polymath scientist had a ton of time to study cicadas on his 100 acre farm. Wait, WHAT?

Didn't see that....Very Interesting.
It’s weird to see that they clearly have at least some thought toward making the founding fathers black for the next run.
I wonder what they have in mind…. Trump already said some things were going to be “a bit bumpy” in his address a few days ago.
And who the heck was here before? What year is it?

This is the comment that really gets me…

This dude is apparently approaching deism. I’ve literally never even heard of him before this week.
