We've put together a list of organizations that are fighting to #SaveOurHistory and things you can do to support them.
Please consider donating. If you're an educator many of the orgs have resources to help you teach inclusive #history. If you're an activist many orgs have tools for you to advocate for museums.
The Nazi's declared modern art "degenerate art" on the grounds that such art was an "insult to German feeling", un-German, Jewish, or Communist in nature.
Trump is doing the same with our #history. We must #SaveOurHistory
Urgent plea to #Smithsonian & all #Museum curators and employees:
Please ARCHIVE and SAVE what you can! This is our Nazi "Degenerate Art" moment...
History will be lost and might not be able to be saved if we allow them to destroy it.
