How are they going to explain the existence of Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Historic Park ? ( Nice place to visit and adjacent to Blackwater Wildlife Refuge, IMHO 5 stars ) https://www.nps.gov/hatu/index.htm
We need the same outcry for erasing transgender people on the Stonewall National Monument. They literally took out the T and erased Martha P Johnson, a strong black transgender LGBTQ+ leader. This administration is evil.
#Canada NEVER forgets. Harriet Tubman, a prominent abolitionist and conductor on the Underground Railroad, played a significant role in helping enslaved people escape to freedom in Canada, particularly in St. Catharines, Ontario, where she established a base of operations + helped refugees settle.
Why don’t they resist? We’re losing valuable history that was celebrated long before DEI was a thing. Is someone misinterpreting, or are they being told specifically what they need to do lest they get shut down? I’d really like to know.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they kept a page on the Underground Railroad but talked about how “lawless” it was and how “criminals” ran it to aid and abet “thievery”
This is so on the nose it's not even questionable with the worst bad faith arguments.
A disabled, freed black woman, who couldn't read or write, managed to make fools of racist slave owners, freeing dozens of slaves and never being caught.
She was a hero and they hate her for it, they're scum.
I am surprised they didn't remove the whole page. After all, they are erasing any history of the black people. How do you discuss the Underground Railroad, then?
It is racism, sexism, and homophobia.
The people who said that tearing down Confederate statues was "erasing history" is actually trying to erase history.
When I saw this the other night my blood ran cold and I was livid. The Fascists came for Harriet Tubman. Utterly sickening. Trump and his shits are pure evil. And they are running amok. How can we stop this????
I think there's a lot of malicious compliance going on as, which I hope this is. It got our attention and we're making enough noise to find out about it. Trouble is, how do we hear over all the other noise rn?
I have never read the Underground Railroad page at the National Park Service. Thanks to education, however, I do know who Harriet Tubman is. Right now, I pray all the keepers of our knowledge understand & appreciate the ending of Ray Bradbury's Farenheit 451. We will need you soon.
We must change the talking points. And the old Democrats cannot do it. They are content being in second place.
It isn’t “anti-DEI” or “anti-woke”.
It is White Power.
White Nationalism.
White Supremacy.
... this gives me flashbacks to the episode of Family Guy where Peter does a bit that includes the underground railroad
it's a toy train under the floorboards
casually horrifying.
raise of hands. who read 1984
remember this part? modifying history in favour of the ruling class😱

This admin is whitewashing everything and the MAGA crowd has wanted this since before MAGA was a thing. It will take a lot of work to fix all of this once they are out — and they need to be out as soon as possible.

Thank goodness for outcry.
We cannot endure these insults, offenses, and dangers much longer. 🔔🔔🔔
White supremacist mediocrity really can’t handle black excellence so they continue these attempts at erasure of black excellence. Bigotry is neither wise nor brave.
And also fuck those MAGA assclowns.
I know right? Dont hear nothing from her now.!! Know what makes me sad a little? Liz Cheney risked her career to get him ousted! Even switched parties. Although I didn't agree with her! But she was strong.

We will NEVER forget and we WON'T GO BACK
It's their racist overlords and they are erasing black history everywhere, on all government websites - with a chainsaw.
😳😢

Only color photo and only one without a bio….

What's going on is bad enough, we don't need to spread falsehoods.
It’s disgraceful!
I'm surprised they didn't remove the whole Underground Railroad page entirely? Probably have plans to rewrite it with a White Savior narrative.
How times have changed.

I make no distinction between the klan and someone voting for klan member.
TRUMP VOTERS ARE RACIST.
