Smithsonian’s Shift Under Fire | Wilmington News

from Wilmington News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Historian Jody Edward Ginn warns that the Smithsonian is veering off course, abandoning its educational mission for an activist agenda under current leadership. He cites the leader’s past work with major historical organizations to show a consistent pattern of promoting Marxist-influenced political narratives over balanced scholarship. Ginn highlights her presidential address and congressional testimony as contradictions to her claims of nonpartisanship, especially given her public framing of history as a “tool of social justice.” He’s baffled by her denials of these past positions, raising alarms about the institution’s future direction and its ability to uphold neutral historical storytelling.
