Trump Official Proposes Replacing 200-Year Old White House Columns A Trump administration official is proposing an ornate upgrade to the 200-year-old White House columns at the building's main entrance.

A Trump appointee wants to rip out the White House’s 200-year-old columns and replace them with the gilded Corinthian style Trump splashes across his resorts—after bulldozing tradition for a $400M ballroom. The People’s House is being treated like a vanity project. #SaveTheWhiteHouse #ProtectHistory

One of the "overpass signs" I saw online for MLK Day said #ProtectBlackHistory . So very true. Actually, these days, we MUST #ProtectHistory ... all of it....from the current monstrous administration....for our future.✨🇺🇸🫂

Please don't throw them out...someone takes these and archive them!! #Librarians #ProtectHistory

I hope they win the lawsuit.

Don’t let Trump rewrite history at the Smithsonian! If the Smithsonian gives in to Trump, it helps his administration take greater and greater control over America and make the historical record more in line with his racist, hateful, far-right views.

Coalition strategizes how to protect President’s House Site from Trump administration ATAC held a public town hall at Zion Baptist Church in North Philly as the Trump administration plans to remove materials it finds "inappropriately disparage" American history.

The truth about our history should never be erased. From Philly to the nation, we must fight to preserve the exhibits that honestly confront slavery. Our students, our communities, and our democracy deserve nothing less. #ProtectHistory #TruthMatters

Thank you to City Lights and the artists who put on that exhibit. The work had a nostalgic, comforting energy that reminded me why this city matters. We don’t always need to erase history. Sometimes, we need to let it live.

Trump is trying to rewrite history by purging the Smithsonian of facts he doesn’t like. This isn’t democracy. It’s authoritarianism. Attacking truth, historians, and museums is the playbook of dictators, not leaders of a free nation. #Surge4Democracy #ProtectHistory #DefendTruth

White House calls for a 'comprehensive review' of eight Smithsonian museums The effort is focused on bringing the organization in line with President Trump's cultural directives ahead of the country's 250th anniversary celebrations.

Patriotism isn’t pretending the hard parts never happened. Real love of country means telling the whole truth — the good, the bad, & the lessons we must never forget.

I remember being angry by the Taliban's destruction of the Puli Khumri Public Library, & the over 55,000 books and manuscripts. All I can think now is I hope someone else has copies of everything in the LOC before it's wiped out. #Protecthistory #protectthetruth #LibraryofCongress #GOPDestruction

Trump's Executive Order Reshapes Smithsonian: What It Means for American History​ Imagine visiting a museum where only select parts of history are displayed—stories that fit a specific narrative, while others are conspicuously absent.

"Trump wants to decide what counts as 'patriotic history.' That’s not preserving the past—it’s rewriting it."

AHA–OAH Joint Statement on Federal Censorship of American History The American Historical Association (AHA) and the Organization of American Historians (OAH) have released a joint statement condemning federal censorship of American history.

Historians are sounding the alarms…will anyone listen and take action? #Resist #StopTrump #ProtectHistory #AcademicFreedom #SpeakUp

Trump & GOP attacks on DEI led to Arlington National Cemetery erasing Black & female service members’ history. A direct order from their whitewashing agenda. They don’t honor service; they erase it. Disgusting. #ProtectHistory #ArlingtonCemetery

Something Orwellian is happening: the rewriting of history. In 1984, countries would “fight” and then “never had fought.” History was erased. We must resist this. Ukraine was never the aggressor. Changing history is the first step toward authoritarian control.

The text discusses the censorship of community histories, stating that erasure is an act of control meant to instill fear and erase the identities of marginalized groups. It emphasizes the importance of resisting this erasure by preserving history and amplifying silenced voices. The message specifically highlights the censorship at Stonewall National Monument as part of a larger pattern of historical erasure, not just of LGBTQ+ history but also of Black, Indigenous, immigrant, and women’s histories. It calls on readers to defend historical truth to ensure that public spaces reflect the full and diverse story of the nation. The text ends with a firm statement that allowing this erasure to happen means accepting a future where only the privileged and powerful are remembered—a future we cannot allow.

When a community’s history is censored, it’s not just about silencing stories—it’s about erasing the community itself - see images for more thoughts
