The National Park Service has directed the removal of three quotes — about slavery, immigration and memorializing death — from the Bunker Hill Monument in Massachusetts. It’s part of a broader push by the Trump administration to strip what it describes as “corrosive ideology” from government-run institutions, according to new reports.
The historic site in Boston commemorates the Battle of Bunker Hill, fought on June 17, 1775, becoming the first major military engagement of the Revolutionary War. It includes banners emblazoned with quotes from various figures, seen by thousands of visitors every year.
