...and Socialists:
"Both Wood's and McPherson's remarks were published by the World Socialist Website, a left-wing, socialist website, which claims that the 1619 project's "aim is to create a historical narrative that legitimizes the effort of the Democratic Party to construct an electoral coalition based on the prioritizing of personal 'identities'—i.e., gender, sexual preference, ethnicity, and, above all, race."[41] The site has also published interviews on the project with historians Victoria Bynum[42] and James Oakes,[43] and promoted a lecture series critiquing the project's alleged "racialist falsification of American and world history."[41]"
