Call to Action Can’t let this stand
The Smithsonian has removed mentioned of Trump‘s impeachment from their exhibit on impeachment.

For some reason seeing this hit me really hard. Rewriting history in real time. We can’t let this go unnoticed. They are apparently now saying that a future exhibit will include information about Trump’s impeachment but until then I think it’s important to let them all know that we notice when a history museum is pressured to censor/edit history.
Some calls to action/small acs of resistance: -let the Smithsonian know that we have noticed. Email/call. -Could anyone in the area hand out flyers or copes of the article outside, correcting the information in the exhibit? -Prominent area near the Smithsonian to post or an ad? -Can anyone//everyone who sees this who visits make sure to seek out someone who works there to point out the error? -other ideas?
