It began as a prize-winning magazine issue and became a cultural flashpoint, and now “The 1619 Project” is coming out as a book. It arrives at a time when dozens of bills around the country have been proposed or enacted that call for various restrictions on books seen as immoral or unpatriotic.

Independent bookstores plan to donate copies to schools.
