Is Trump's attack on the Smithsonian being driven by Christian nationalist pseudo-historian David Barton? Barton says he recently told administration officials that the "tone" of the exhibits at the African American and Native America museums was too anti-white. www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...

Trump is codifying institutional racism and making any discussion of that, illegal.

Great example of white male racism.

The present tone of African America in general is one of forgiveness, but that's not enough for white power, which demands amnesia. And, if white power is dumb enough to break this fragile truce, what they're going to get is stochastic revenge.

Fellow citizens do not ask you to push atrocities down the memory hole. An occupying force tells you to push atrocities down the memory hole. And the only self-respecting response to an occupying force is a bullet through the back of its head, then keep on walking.

Remove the Tax Exempt Status of American Churches and fund public education! End the cults of proud ignorance, gullibility, violence, hate, greed, and tRump.

If the truth of what white people have done in the past makes you ashamed, it is not the fault of the exhibit or the museum. He should try learning some real history instead of the bullshit he sells to gullible idiots like the Pedofuhrer.
