A coalition of national park supporters and teachers has filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s efforts to remove educational exhibits that address slavery, the forced relocation of Native Americans, and other difficult periods in the nation’s past.
The legal action seeks to prevent park officials from dismantling displays that educate visitors about these challenging historical topics at national park sites across the country.
The plaintiffs argue that removing these educational materials would eliminate important opportunities for Americans to learn about and confront the more troubling aspects of the nation’s history.
