Politeness Is "White Supremacy"? Smithsonian: “Absolutely.”
from The Andrew Branca Show · host Attorney Andrew F. Branca
House Oversight hearing exposed just how far the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History has fallen — and Reps. Brandon Gill and Tim Burchett made sure the whole country saw it. Gill's now-viral exchange with Director Anthea Hartig, catching her defending a "toolkit" that lists politeness as a marker of "white supremacy culture," was one of the most devastating moments in a congressional hearing in years. Burchett's questioning on inappropriate content pushed on children was just as damning.Hartig couldn't answer basic questions about her own institution's materials because there's no honest answer to give. This is a taxpayer-funded museum that has decided the values that built the greatest civilization in human history — order, family, hard work, objectivity, courtesy — are something to be pathologized rather than celebrated.Join me as I break down the full hearing, why Western and white culture built the modern world's freedoms and prosperity, and why the Smithsonian's leadership needs to be held accountable — or replaced.Join me LIVE right after the open-access show.
