    Historian blasts Smithsonian's activism

    A historian and museum professional accused the Smithsonian of abandoning its educational mission in favor of activism following his visit to the National Museum of American History (NMAH) for the first time in more than a decade amid mounting criticism from the Trump administration and conservatives over how the museum presents American history.

    I used to like visiting the Smithstonian. Not anymore.

    I "accidentally" subscribed to their magazine one year, I think I read just a couple of them. Been there as well.
    Sometimes I wish I had a Harry Potter's wand and make people go up into smoke.

        I lived in DC as a kid for a few years. The Smithsonian was my favorite place there, we went there many times and the zoo.

          Got a bit into the article and it was rather easy to figure what happened. Quite simply the Slow Joe 'Obama' Dumbocats tossed their theology into the museum. Same political party that is destroying our schools. Solution? P.T. needs to put a strong conservative into the place as director. Start cleaning out all those sex toys the Black Lives Don't Matter sheet and get it back to the incredible learning experience it was last time I visited.

            This is not a new approach. This crap was going on in the early 60's, Had a class called modern problems, the teacher was a card carrying communist. Learned quite a bit later there was another one that was hiding in the wood work so to speak.
