Trump Reportedly Aims to Erase Slavery From African American Museum; Historians, Advocates Sound the Alarm

Critics accuse Trump of rewriting Black history as his administration reportedly targets the slavery section of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Washington, D.C., USA - November 13, 2017: The National Museum of African American History and Culture, opened in 2016, is located on the National Mall.

Donald Trump is stirring nationwide outrage as reports emerge that his administration is attempting to remove or reduce slavery-related content from the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

The museum, a centerpiece of Black historical preservation located on the National Mall, has drawn millions of visitors since opening in 2016. It was championed under President Barack Obama and highlights centuries of African American history; from slavery and segregation to civil rights and contemporary culture.

But under Trump’s second term, sources say key exhibits detailing the horrors of slavery may be altered or removed altogether. The effort is reportedly part of a larger rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives across federal agencies, including public historical institutions.

The museum’s powerful lower-level exhibits guide visitors through 250 years of American slavery, followed by Jim Crow laws, the Civil Rights Movement, and major historical milestones like the Montgomery Bus Boycott.

According to sources within the Smithsonian reported by April Ryan, officials are quietly working to rally bipartisan support in hopes of preserving the museum’s integrity. The urgency intensified last week when museum director Kevin Young unexpectedly stepped down.

This isn’t the first sign of historical revision under the current administration. A recent change to the National Park Service website quietly removed Harriet Tubman’s name and replaced references to the Underground Railroad with language focused on “Black/White Cooperation.” Critics view this as a sanitized portrayal of U.S. history, designed to avoid the painful realities of racial injustice.

Trump has defended such changes as a way to “remove ideological bias” and “present a more unifying version of American history,” but many see it as a direct threat to truth and accountability.

The museum was established by law in 2003 and opened its doors under Obama in 2016. It stands as a powerful symbol of Black history and resilience. Attempts to alter or whitewash its narrative risk sparking public protests and legal challenges.

With more than one million visitors in 2022 alone, the museum is not just a landmark, t’s a lifeline to the truth for generations to come. And as critics warn, that truth should not be subject to political revision.
