The anti-Trump nature of the 2017 Women’s March will be blurred for anyone who relies on a photograph currently displayed at the National Archives and Records Administration as a promotion for its exhibit on women’s suffrage.
The National Archives used a photograph from the
2017 demonstration as part of a promotional display for an exhibit keyed to the 100th anniversary of American women being granted the right to vote in 1920. The 2017 photo was paired with an image of a 1913 suffrage march in Washington to show two protests in the same place but a century apart.
However, the 2017 photo has been altered, according to
The Washington Post.
The National Archives, which
on its website calls itself “the nation’s record keeper,” blurred the name of
President Donald Trump where it was used on protest signs, and also blurred references to female genitals, which were present on some protest signs.
The Post used as an example a sign that originally read “God Hates Trump” but now has the president’s name blurred. A sign reading “Trump & GOP — Hands Off Women” also has Trump’s name blurred.
So is this another partisan hit job?
or just a fuck up on their part... I think -=IF=- you bother to READ the article, you will see it is clearly the first choice!
