Trump administration’s anti-woke campaign targets Smithsonian museums
The Trump administration has launched a campaign targeting Smithsonian museums, accusing them of promoting an "anti-American agenda" through exhibits that focus on oppression rather than national achievements. A White House document, obtained by the Guardian, lists problematic exhibits at seven museums, including a Benjamin Franklin display linking his scientific work to slave ownership and a film about George Floyd's murder. The administration has demanded content corrections and threatened to remove what it calls "woke" ideology from the institution.
