Continuing the Censorship Question: About the Removal of Slavery Exhibits in Philadelphia (02.02.26)

An exhibit paints a thousand words — as well as years and years of uncomfortable history. Following the removal of informational panels about the history of slavery at Philadelphia’s Independence National Historical Park, constituents and officials alike have surfaced their disapproval regarding this change, leading to public upheaval and legal battles in its wake. The recurring question remains: How much can Americans take when it comes to the sheltering of information by their government? Music credit for this rendition of “Nobody Knows the Trouble I See” goes to artists Rachel Barton Pine and Matthew Hagle, with composition by Maud Powell and J. Rosamond Johnson.
