Trump and Hegseth Erase Black and Latino Veterans from Military History

What Happened: The Pentagon deleted memorial pages for Black, Latino, and women service members from Arlington National Cemetery’s website. This follows Hegseth’s directive to remove content related to “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.” Among those erased were tributes to Gen. Benjamin O. Davis Jr. and the Tuskegee Airmen.

Why It Matters: This isn’t just an attack on diversity—it’s an attempt to rewrite military history and erase the contributions of Black, Latino, and women veterans. Trump and Hegseth are dishonoring the sacrifices of those who fought for America while enabling the whitewashing of the armed forces.

If there was no other reason than being black or a female, then using DEI as the excuse for removal is wrong and should be reversed.
