Federal government replaces slavery exhibition at Washington's home in Philadelphia
The Trump administration replaced an exhibit on slavery at President George Washington’s Philadelphia home with a version criticized as whitewashing history. The original 2010 panels detailed enslaved people who lived there, while the new exhibit focuses on broader historical context but omits specific details. A federal court initially blocked the replacement, but a three-judge panel later allowed it.
