"Trump Admin Orders Parks To Purge Shops Of DEI, Trans References" [1]
"The review comes as the White House leans heavily on parks as the vanguard of next year’s celebrations of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence."
"The National Park Service has ordered park rangers to remove books and retail items at park gifts shops that run afoul of President Donald Trump’s edicts targeting diversity and equity across the federal government, according to a recent memo viewed by POLITICO’s E&E News.
NPS acting Director Jessica Bowron issued the order Nov. 25, labeling all “public-facing content” as up for review in the concessionaires, gift shops and bookstores within national parks. Those businesses are run by official partners of the NPS, often nonprofits that also raise money for parks.
Park rangers were given until Dec. 19 to carry out the reviews, which are already being criticized by park advocates as censorship of U.S. history."
