[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here you go, includes a link to Trump’s EO: https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/some-artifacts-removed-from-african-american-history-museum-after-executive-order/3900353/[/quote]

Linda St. Thomas, the Smithsonian Institute's chief spokesperson, released a statement in response to visitors seeing artifacts being removed from exhibits.

"The Greensboro, NC, lunch counter is not leaving the Smithsonian. It is on display at the National Museum of American History where it has been for many years. The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) also has two stools from the original counter; one is on exhibit at all times, the other rotates in so that they can be properly preserved.

The Bible and book belong to Rev. Brown of San Francisco who generously loaned them to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture for an exhibition. The loan agreement expires in May and the items are being returned to the owner which is standard museum practice. The curator called and wrote to Rev. Brown.

With regard to the loan, NMAAHC added:
As part of our commitment to responsible stewardship, we will continue to honor all loan agreements, including the timely return of objects. These will be going back to the owner."

Oops. And explain why, if Trump is trying to turn the US into Christian nationalist country, would be get rid of bibles?

Interesting how you quote the person who has to speak for the administration rather than what Rev Brown had to say himself. [/quote]

Anyone that refers to themselves as a reverend is suspect. [/quote]

What's the the phone number for the "Anti-Christian Bias Task Force"? I'd like to file a report.

I would say anyone responsible for pulling much-needed food from food banks is pretty much as anti-Christian as it gets.
