The Ochs-Sulzberger family that owns the New York Times were slaveholders who supported the Confederacy, according to a report from the New York Post. From New York Post, The Family That Owns The New York Times Were Slaveholders: I have found compelling evidence that the uncle Bertha Levy Ochs lived with for several years in Natchez, Miss., before the Civil War owned at least five slaves. [...] Separately, there is also compelling evidence that the brother of a Revolutionary War-era ancestor of the Sulzberger branch of the family was involved in the slave trade.

Ochs, supported the South and slavery.I wonder why this was left out of The 1619 Project? Follow InformationLiberation on Twitter, Facebook, Gab and Minds. |
