WASHINGTON -- The National Park Service has removed a reference to Harriet Tubman from a webpage about "The Underground Railroad."
The webpage used to lead with both an image and quote from Tubman.
But a comparison of the webpages between late January and mid-March shows those items have since been removed.

Several references to "enslaved" people and the fugitive slave act of 1850 are also gone.
The webpage now leads with commemorative stamps of various civil rights leaders, including the phrase "Black-white cooperation."
There is a separate National Park Service webpage dedicated to Tubman.

Several government websites have recently been changed as the Trump administration enacts a campaign to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Removing DEI is actually returning to Jim Crow days.

As I recall, Trump admires Pres. Jackson. So Tubman won’t be on the $20 bill any time soon.

Not necessarily. Are you saying people of color, ethnicity, gender, are incapable of merit-based promotion?

In fairness, I think this administration has shown that you can compete without talent, by being just a great ass kisser, and possibly get promoted. With that said, it really is astonishing how white his administration is.

I have bad news for you. Hospital administration is full of ass kissing, and a lot of hospitals are not well run. So, yes, I have reasons to be worried about the world being run by ass kissers.

Also, the Defense Dept. restored web pages on the Tuskegee Airmen, Navajo code-talkers, and yes, Jackie Robinson. The Air Force has not put back a page about Colin Powell, a Republican who opposed Trump.
