"An illustrated edition of The 1619 Project, with newly commissioned artwork and archival images, The New York Times Magazine's award-winning reframing of the American founding and its contemporary echoes, placing slavery and resistance at the center of the American story. Here, in these pages, Black art provides refuge. The marriage of beautiful, haunting and profound words and imagery creates an experience for the reader, a wanting to reflect, to sit in both the discomfort and the joy, to contemplate what a nation owes a people who have contributed so much and yet received so little, and maybe even, to act. --Nikole Hannah-Jones, from the Preface. Curated by the editors of The New York Times Magazine, led by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, this illustrated edition of The 1619 Project features seven chapters from the original book that lend themselves to beautiful, engaging visuals, deepening the experience of the content. The 1619 Project: A Visual Experience offers the same revolutionary idea as the original book, an argument for a new national origin story that begins in late August of 1619, when a cargo ship of enslaved people from Africa arrived on the shores of Jamestown, Virginia. Only by reckoning with this difficult history and understanding its powerful influence on our present can we prepare ourselves for a more just future. Filled with original art by thirteen Black artists like Carrie Mae Weems, Calida Rawles, Vitus Shell, Xaviera Simmons, on the themes of resistance and freedom, a brand-new photo essay about slave auction sites, vivid photos of Black Americans celebrating their own forms of patriotism, and a collection of archival images of Black families by Black photographers, this gorgeous volume offers readers a dynamic new way of experiencing the impact of The 1619 Project. Complete with many of the powerful essays and vignettes from the original edition, written by some of the most brilliant journalists, scholars, and thinkers of our time, The 1619 Project: A Visual Experience brings to life a fuller, more comprehensive understanding of American history and culture"--

Good seat COVER, but not a seat cushion
Color: Grey, Size: Front Seat Cushion-1 Pc
First, it would be very helpful if the description/information did not use the word "cushion" as this implies some sort of padding in addition to the cover. The cover has a layered backing but there is no cushioning or padding like material. That said, it is a very nice sheepskin cover. It was well packed and the sheepskin material itself is soft. It is a good size and nice to sit on. However, I will return as I need some actual padding to make my very firm car seat more comfortable. My rating would have been 5 stars otherwise.

Nice comfort and warm seat cover
Color: Pearl, Size: Front Seat Cushion-1 Pc
Used when traveled to Florida and back (3,000+ miles). Nice comfort and fit onto my Honda CRV seat good. It has straps and clips to hold it in place and rubber backing to keep it from moving around. In the winter it warms you up quickly, added bonus not expected. The quality is good, not problems with piling, or coming apart.

It’s great quality in terms of the fur, but the non-slip aspect lacks.
Color: Pearl, Size: Front Seat Cushions-2 Pcs
I wanted this not to provide extra cushion - although it does. I got this more to protect my seats in my sedan because they are tan in color and a suede-type material. So my jeans would bleed blue or black pants ect… would cause problems. It works perfectly for the purpose I wanted it for. I no longer damage my seats, and it does not appear that my pants colors bleed into the sheepskin either. Or at least it’s so minimal I have not noticed. I even spilled a bit of water by accident, and it came off very easily too so that’s a bonus. It’s lacking in the non-slip department. I understand the bottom is designed to be non-slip, and I do utilize the clips that attatched into the seat (the clips just slide out). Despite this is slips often. It’s not a deal breaker, but it was very disappointing. It’s frustrating to re-adjust. The gripping material underneath is not super textured like I thought. The clips not working as indented is also annoying. They don’t provide any gripping it just comes out no matter how hard I push inward. Also, the color I bought is slightly different from what I received. I know colors vary from photo to life, but it seemed like the color was just off a tad. It was supposed to be a lighter beige according to the photo, but it’s darker. Not a deal-breaker again, but something to consider. It was close enough for me. Overall still a good purchase, but depending on why you are buying these things may stand out to you.
