The move comes as Trump continues to exert influence over major cultural institutions since beginning his second term in January, alongside significant cuts to arts and humanities funding.
A letter addressed to Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie Bunch, published on the White House website, announced a “comprehensive internal review of selected Smithsonian museums and exhibitions.”
Eight major museums will be scrutinised, including the National Museum of American History, the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and the National Museum of the American Indian.
Last month, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History removed a label referencing Trump’s two impeachments, though the institution later denied the decision resulted from White House pressure.
The Smithsonian has yet to respond to AFP’s request for comment.
“We are reviewing the letter with this commitment in mind... and will continue to collaborate constructively with the White House, Congress and our governing Board of Regents,“ the statement added. – AFP
