Harriet Tubman posthumously named a general in Veterans Day ceremony

Revered abolitionist Harriet Tubman, who was the first woman to oversee an American military action during a time of war, was posthumously awarded the rank of general on Monday.

Dozens gathered on Veterans Day at the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad State Park in Maryland's Dorcester County for a formal ceremony making Tubman a one-star brigadier general in the state's National Guard.

Gov. Wes Moore called the occasion not just a great day for Tubman's home state but for all of the U.S.

“Today, we celebrate a soldier and a person who earned the title of veteran," Moore said. "Today we celebrate one of the greatest authors of the American story.”

GoMarylandGo!

... The reading of the official order was followed by a symbolic pinning ceremony with Tubman's great-great-great-grandniece, Tina Wyatt....

Tubman's status as an icon of history has only been further elevated within the last few years. The city of Philadelphia chose a Black artist to make a 14-foot (4.3-meter) bronze statue to go on display next year. In 2022, a Chicago elementary school was renamed for Tubman, replacing the previous namesake, who had racist views.

However, plans to put Tubman on the $20 bill have continued to stall.

Joe, there's still time.

Trump vows to rename Denali, North America's tallest mountain, as Mt McKinley

45. Trump, dead last. I'm not sure why he isn't #46. Did they lose one? Is it because Cleveland had nonconsecutive terms?

Back to the article:

... The U.S. Department of the Interior, in the 2015 order that was signed by Obama changing the name to Denali, noted that McKinley had never visited the mountain and had no "significant historical connection to the mountain or to Alaska."

Denali, the local Athabascan name, meaning "the High One," was officially designated as the peak's name in 1975 by the state of Alaska, which then pressed the federal government to also adopt the name.

MAGAfascists detest states' rights.

... Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski, a Republican, pushed back on Trump's pledge to rename the mountain.

"There is only one name worthy of North America’s tallest mountain: Denali - the Great One," Murkowski wrote in a post on X....

Federal courthouse renamed after Latino family in segregation fight

President Biden has signed a bill that renames the U.S. Courthouse in Los Angeles after the Latino parents who helped end legal school segregation in California and set up the 1954 landmark Brown vs. Board of Education ruling.

The big picture: Felicitas and Gonzalo Mendez U.S. Courthouse comes decades after Latino activists tried to draw attention to the pre-Brown case, which set the stage for racial desegregation nationwide.

Zoom in: It's the first federal courthouse in U.S. history named after a Latina and sits just blocks from where the 1947 Mendez v. Westminster case was originally decided....

On Monday, the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal church — where Fredrick Douglass, Oprah Winfrey, and former President Barack Obama have all worshipped — was awarded power over the Proud Boys name by DC superior court judge Tanya Jones Bosier, who opened the door for the church to seize any profit made from the sale of merchandise sales using the far-right extremist group’s name, logos, and insignia, The Guardian reports....

I watched a show on PBS today about that event. It had video of a young John Lewis at the front of the march. When this happened I was just a kid; ten years old. Just two years earlier I had to deal with the goddamn president being shot, and then this. And on top of that, by the time I was sixteen Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King had both been shot. It was hell in a bucket.

Trump Signs Order To Restore Racist Monuments, Remove 'Anti-America' Ideology

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday aimed at undoing many of the changes made during the racial reckoning movement, including the restoration of monuments, and the removal of so-called “anti-American ideology” from national museums and other federal properties.

The White House said the order was part of “restoring truth and sanity to American history by revitalizing key cultural institutions and reversing the spread of divisive ideology.”

Bring back White supremacist historical revisionism.

The executive order calls for the removal of “improper, divisive, or anti-American ideology from the Smithsonian and its museums, education and research centers, and the National Zoo,” pointing to exhibits that address the United States’ history of racism and celebrate the transgender rights movement.

Make America Bigoted Again Do cons really want a POTUS deciding on the content of museum displays?

The National Zoo? Is it going to be okay to call Blacks 'monkeys' again?

“The prior administration pushed a divisive ideology that reconstrued America’s promotion of liberty as fundamentally flawed, infecting revered institutions like the Smithsonian and national parks with false narratives,” the order reads.

Says the Liar in Chief. Name a false narrative, with credible citations. Good luck.

Trump’s directive also calls on the Secretary of the Interior to restore statues and other monuments that have been “improperly removed or changed in the last five years to perpetuate a false revision of history or improperly minimize or disparage certain historical figures or events.”

Many monuments to racist figures in American history were vandalized and ultimately removed during the 2020 uprising in response to the murder of George Floyd. In the capital, those include memorials honoring Confederate generals and a pro-slavery Supreme Court justice who said Black people were not American citizens.

Antifa and other decent citizens, break out the tools of vandalism and destruction again.

While in office, former President Joe Biden supported the removal of racist statues from public squares and advocated for moving them to museums focused on that aspect of American history.

A reasonable compromise.

Trump has signed more than 100 executive orders ― directives that do not require Congressional approval ― just two months into his term, far outpacing the number of orders signed by at least the past 14 presidents.

MAGA loves fascism. Record number of lawsuits and contrary judges' rulings, too.
