Confusing headline of the day





The ‘1619 Project’ Isn’t Anti-American — It’s Anti-White Identity Politics


It's honestly hard to tell what the headline-writer is trying to say here.
Is he saying that the 1619 Project is engaging in identity politics that are anti-white?
Or is he saying that the 1619 project is against "white identity politics?'

Is it  (anti-white) identity politics?
Or Anti- (white identity politics?)

Skimming the article, I'm pretty sure it's the latter, but come on New York Magazine Intelligencier. Surely you can do better than this.

It does seem to suggest two different things at the same time.
