Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "History Doesn't Change Because It Makes You Uncomfortable

History cannot be erased simply because it makes people uncomfortable. 

 In this hearing, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett pushes back against Republican attacks on the Smithsonian and efforts to sanitize America's past. From the displacement of Indigenous communities and the legacy of slavery to the struggle for civil rights, Crockett argues that telling the full truth about American history is essential—not divisive. 

During the exchange, she challenges claims that museums and educators are "sowing division," questions witnesses about the role of public institutions in preserving history, and warns that efforts to rewrite the past threaten the country's ability to learn from it. 

She also points to the continued threat of violent white supremacy and rejects claims that acknowledging history is itself an act of discrimination. This conversation is about more than museums or textbooks. It's about whether America is willing to confront its history honestly—or allow politics to decide which parts of the truth survive.

Federal judge orders Trump admin to restore slavery exhibit by Friday - POLITICO

A federal judge has given the Trump administration until Friday to reinstate a slavery exhibit torn down from a Philadelphia national park as part of the administration's effort to elevate "uplifting" narratives of U.S. history. 

Following her blistering rebuke of the National Park Service for censoring historic content earlier this week, Senior Judge Cynthia Rufe of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on Wednesday said the exhibits at Independence National Historical Park must be put back by the end of the week...

Judge orders restoration of Philadelphia slavery exhibits - POLITICO

In a withering opinion Monday, Judge Cynthia Rufe invoked George Orwell's dystopian novel "1984," saying the administration had attacked the concept of truth itself as it sought to erase details of America's legacy of slavery. She said the removal of the exhibits in January papered over Washington's ownership of slaves and the special measures he took to avoid those enslaved persons gaining their liberty while he lived in Philadelphia from 1790 to 1797...
