The Trump administration must restore exhibits at the nation\u2019s museums, parks and landmarks that were removed or altered because the administration thought they “inappropriately disparage Americans past or living,” a judge ruled Friday.\u00a0<\/p>

The judge who issued the order described the administration\u2019s changes as an effort to “rewrite the Nation\u2019s history with a white-out pen.”<\/p>

Park Service forced to censor exhibits<\/h2>
<\/div>

The backstory: President Donald Trump signed an executive order “restoring truth and sanity to American history” at the nation\u2019s museums, parks and landmarks last year. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum later directed removal of “improper partisan ideology” from museums, monuments, landmarks and other public exhibits under federal control.<\/p>

National Park Service employees say they\u2019ve been forced to remove or censor dozens of exhibits that share factually accurate and relevant U.S. history and scientific knowledge, including about slavery and climate change.<\/p>

Many of the changes were at Philadelphia\u2019s Independence National Historical Park, where the administration removed exhibits on the lives of nine people enslaved at the site in the 1790s under George Washington, the first U.S. president.\u00a0<\/p>

Other changes included removing a sign at Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument in Arizona describing basalt bubbles because it had an image of a visitor holding a Pride flag while films on labor history were removed from the Lowell National Historical Park in Massachusetts.<\/p>

What they’re saying:<\/p>

“History cannot be faithfully told while excluding the experiences of communities whose contributions, struggles, and achievements form an important part of our Nation\u2019s story,” U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley wrote.<\/p>

“Under the guise of promoting American dignity, this Administration seeks to share a limited history by ordering the removal of all signs, displays, and interpretive exhibits at National Parks that do not align with its preferred narrative, thereby telling half-truths,” she continued.\u00a0<\/p>

What’s next:<\/p>

The Trump administration must also provide a status report every week with the progress they\u2019ve made in restoring the sites, the judge ruled.\u00a0<\/p>
