Since Trump Admin wants to scrub out accomplishments which may be based on race/gender, I'm wondering how long it will be before the cease funding or else close down the National Museum of African American History, National Museum of the American Indian, Holocaust Memorial Museum, Military Women's Memorial/Arlington, etc.

If they are so adamant that all government websites have to be combed through for any mention of accomplishments by those in targeted categories, then how can they defend keeping these facilities (and all others like them, supported with Fed money) open?

Maybe that question should be posed and see what the answer (or deflection) would be.

I say scrap them all except the Holocaust. That was an historical event that should be memorialized. I couldn't care less about the rest.
I'm a woman btw. Don't need a Women in the Military memorial. It's somewhat patronizing.

Didn’t we just go through an exercise of tearing down monuments and renaming places and schools to toss those out of favor into the dustbin?

Why are only men honored and menorized?

Are the Military memorials male only? I would think if a woman gets a Purple Heart or some such that would be enough of an honor. Is a statue really necessary?
