NPS removes Harriet Tubman references from website
https://abc7ny.com/post/national-parks- ... e-4/7/2025
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.

Re: NPS removes Harriet Tubman references from website
As I recall, Trump admires Pres. Jackson. So Tubman won’t be on the $20 bill any time soon.
In preparation for a visit from Hegseth. They include a biography of Jackie Robinson.

Re: NPS removes Harriet Tubman references from website
Not necessarily. Are you saying people of color, ethnicity, gender, are incapable of merit-based promotion?
Well, then

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.

You've never worked for a corporation, obviously. Or politics. Lotta ass kissing. Or, have you also been promoted medically for ass kissing? Or dei? Either way remind me to go elsewhere for er services.

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.Beebs52 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 07, 2025 6:41 pmHow what his administration is?

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.NPS wrote:Changes to the Underground Railroad page on the National Park Service's website were made without approval from NPS leadership nor Department leadership. The webpage was immediately restored to its original content,
