YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this explosive excerpt from the latest episode of NIGHT SCHOOL, Marc Lamont Hill tears into Donald Trump’s escalating assault on Black culture, calling out his reported plans to censor the National Museum of African American History and Culture—specifically, the slavery exhibit.
According to veteran journalist April Ryan, Trump’s camp is targeting the Smithsonian museum’s narrative on slavery as part of a larger war on DEI, identity politics, and historical truth. Hill doesn’t just expose the political stunt—he calls out a deeper problem: Black history is being controlled by white institutions.
Hill pushes the conversation further, arguing that no white-led government or museum should be the gatekeeper of Black memory. He calls for independent Black institutions that can't be defunded, rewritten, or whitewashed by politicians chasing MAGA applause lines.
This is more than just a beef over a museum—it's about who gets to tell our story.
This is an excerpt from the latest NIGHT SCHOOL episode.
