It’s not just about slavery. That’s obviously part of American history and I don’t think anyone’s trying to get rid of it. However, if the entire network of Smithsonian museums are focused more on demonizing the US rather than focusing on the awesome achievements of America, something probably needs to change.

the smithsonian focuses on neither how bad nor good america was/is. it just focuses on what it was/is, which happens to be quite bad in many notable regards

I’m not sure if this is the case. I think the demonization of America is an increasing trend in modern society
