National Archives failing to preseve ICE records
The National Archives admitted to censoring photos of the 2017 Women’s March to obfuscate signs with criticism of President Donald Trump. History professor Mathew Connelly calls this the latest example of “a great and growing threat to our nation’s capacity to protect and learn from history.” Connelly is concerned that the archives is now allowing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to destroy millions of documents chronicling their treatment of immigrants.
