I can’t be snarky about this, because it’s horrifying that he’s going to destroy another one of America’s greatest institutions of learning. This just makes me want to weep.

He's going to replace the African American History museum's contents with a picture of Kanye West and a minstrel show on loop
A Rhetorical Howitzer to lay waste to the next republican that says "Party of Lincoln".

My home town of Bristol in the UK benefitted greatly from the patronage of Edward Colston. He made his considerable fortune by trafficking slaves from Africa to the USA. These people were packed literally like sardines in the wooden ships to allow for the inevitable deaths the transport caused. 😱
A bunch of students damaged Colston’s statue then dragged it to the docks and tipped into the water.It’s now in the local museum still dented and paint splattered with a plaque describing his history as a slaver.The concert hall, school, streets all in his name are renamed.Know history,warts and all
All persons in prison currently convicted of human trafficking will be pardoned because they were just good capitalists engaged in the triangle trade.

It is most specifically about wiping out any part of history that makes white people uncomfortable.
In my mind I am seeing a heist movie premised on a group of historians grabbing crucial museum exhibits before the barbarians plunder or torch them.
