Trump Criticizes Smithsonian for Focusing on Slavery’s Past
President Donald Trump recently expressed his dissatisfaction with American museums, particularly the Smithsonian, accusing them of being “woke” and focusing too much on historical shortcomings. He claimed that the museums should instead showcase positive aspects of the country and its future. Trump announced his intention to involve attorneys to address his concerns, similar to his actions with universities. This move is seen as a threat to these institutions, as he may attempt to cut off federal funding if changes are not made to align with his vision of American history.
