The U.S. Department of Defense is planning to remove content related to the historic aircraft, the Enola Gay, as part of Donald Trump's crackdown on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Trump signed executive orders forcing the removal of all references to DEI in the federal government, as well as mandating that the federal government deny the existence of transgender people by recognizing only two sexes —male or female— despite the scientific and medical consensus.
After the orders, the Defense Department has created a database of more than 26,000 images and posts that have been marked for deletion across all branches of the military.
Several photos were seemingly flagged for removal only because their file included the word ”gay,” including the World War II aircraft, which dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan.
The database also marked for removal content about the first black pilots in the military and the country’s first women fighter pilots. References to Women's History Month and Black History Month have already been removed.
They can remove databases, but they can't remove us, the people!!!
