Slavery exhibit swapped overnight at Philadelphia’s Independence Park

The Trump administration has replaced an exhibit on slavery at Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia with a version that advocates say sanitizes the nation’s history.

The President’s House site at the park includes an excavation of the home where George Washington lived when he served as president, with surrounding panel displays and videos focused heavily on the stories of nine enslaved people who lived with and served him.
