National Archives' report: Rotunda is structurally racist, needs safe spaces and trigger warnings(Well yeah. Duh!)

It’s time to “reimagine the Rotunda”. That is the conclusion reached in a report released by the National Archives’ task force on racism. The National Archives Rotunda is an example of structural racism and the Founding Fathers are portrayed too positively. Who knew that the Rotunda is in need of safe spaces and trigger warnings?

The Rotunda of the National Archives displays the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Declaration of Independence. The National Archives holds permanent records created by the U.S. Congress, U.S. Supreme Court, Federal District Courts in the District of Columbia, and Select Federal Agencies. It also houses pre-World War I military service records for U.S. Army and Confederate veterans and pre-1940 vessel and station logbooks for the U.S. Navy. The National Archives’ task force on racism determines that changes must be made. The report was completed in April and released this month with little notice. What the report does is provide yet another opportunity for erasing American history in order to fit the narrative of revisionists – the white Founding Fathers were racists who do not deserve to be recognized for their role in creating the world’s greatest experiment in self-governance. Structural racism “unequivocally impacts” how employees of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) interact with each other, visitors, and the historical records, too.

OFFS! Show of hands who would have expected a different conclusion. That is even if people knew there was a "review" taking place. The clockwise spiral continues unabated.

I keep being reminded of something Rush Limbaugh said during Obama's Presidential campaign in 2008. Speaking of the future of America, he said that if Obama wins, after a few years "you're not going to recognize the place."

Who dreams up all this cockamamie contrived leftist bullshit?

Better yet, why does anybody in their right mind pay any attention to it?

That's been the intended goal all along. All the talk about just wanting to remove the Confederate monuments from the parks, museums, etc., was just the opening salvo in the latest battle of the Culture War.

The ultimate goal, as bammy said, is to fundamentally transform the US.....into something none will recognize.

This reminds me of the 20-year-old story by The Onion where Congress demands a new Capitol building with luxury skyboxes and a retractable dome.

as dad used to tell us kids when we saw something that hurt our feelings...”Suck it up and GROW UP!”

Now our adolescent grown ups can’t, as they are in the immature stage of life at 30 or older years of age.

A lot of the archives are written in cursive so I guess they’ll have to be burned.

Okay. I'm doing it. I'm getting this happy feeling all over.

Better than when I visualized whirled peas.

That experiment is nearly over.
