Trump rewriting history? | Orders review of Smithsonian over 'negative' focus on slavery

President Donald Trump has sparked a major controversy after accusing the Smithsonian Institution of portraying U.S. history in an overly negative light, particularly its emphasis on the horrors of slavery. Trump announced that his administration would launch a sweeping review of the Smithsonian museums, stating they are “out of control” and too focused on “how bad slavery was.” The president says the initiative mirrors similar efforts he's made to reshape narratives in universities, aiming to make national museums “less woke.” Critics argue this move could lead to dangerous historical revisionism and silence marginalized voices.
