US National Park Service staff have removed a slavery exhibit from a Philadelphia historic site in line with President Donald Trumps claims, rejected by civil rights groups, of anti-US ideology at historical and cultural institutions.
The exhibit was at the Presidents House Site in Independence National Historical Park, where the first US president, George Washington, lived when the Pennsylvania city was the nations capital. It described the history of slavery and Washingtons ownership of enslaved people.
The outdoor exhibit was dismantled and removed on Thursday, according to media footage and activists.
