President Donald Trump escalated his rhetoric against museums and alleged “WOKE” exhibits, saying “everything” is centered on highlighting negative aspects of American history, including “how bad slavery was.” https://cnn.it/4g3FwCl

I guess this means Trump hates US discoveries and inventions, including semiconductors and computers, and our achievements in air and space, not to mention the art of Norman Rockwell and Frederick Church.

Das ist ein klassischer Fall von Schuldzuweisung und Vermeidung der Realität. Trumps Problem ist nicht, dass er US-Entdeckungen und Erfindungen ablehnt, sondern dass er die Wirklichkeit nicht akzeptiert, wenn sie nicht seinem Narrativ entspricht.

In other words, Dump is signaling that he wants to erase, downplay, and whitewash the history behind African enslavement. Especially, the facts that it was Europeans (colonizers/whites) that perpetrated slavery for centuries (1400's-1800's) in all the Americas and Carribean. #️⃣ Black History Matters

There was nothing beautiful about fighting the British for our freedom, exterminating the natives, or kidnapping &returning to America people who would become our white southern farmers property & slaves.

Or maybe the attempt to erase or white wash our American history gives a sense of “It wasn’t so bad.” So that these deeds could be resurrected from the ashes again. MAGA, you are exposing yourself. The signs are there.
