From the start of this country in 1776 with the Declaration of Independence, America has been a white supremacist, classist, and misogynist nation. At the time, “We the People” meant only white, Christian, straight males who were property owners.
It took centuries of Constitutional amendments and new local, state, and national laws to ostensibly give basic civil and voting rights to everyone, including women, Blacks, other People of Color, the LGBTQA community, and the lower and middle classes.
It has taken only weeks for the Trump-Musk administration to start removing from American history any mention of non-whites and non-males from official government websites and organizations.
Trump has decided that anything and everything that includes Black and brown people is “woke” and “DEI,” and he has declared that those policies are “illegal.” He has threatened to withhold federal funds to any public or private college or organization (including non-profits) with any program or even a mention of integration and civil rights in their policies.
Last week, the Department of Defense (DoD) started deleting from its website any mention or photographs of anything except white males, including any LGBTQA persons or history.
The DoD just searched for any mention of the word “gay” because that term is often related to homosexual persons.
It would be funny if it weren’t so sad that a photograph of the airplane, the “Enola Gay,” was almost deleted. The DoD staff didn’t realize that the plane that dropped the hydrogen bomb on Japan near the end of WWII was proudly named after the mother of the plane’s pilot, Colonel Paul Tibbets. “Enola” was her first name, and “Gay” was her middle name.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is also renaming some government Forts after Confederate Generals and replacing some government statues with those of Confederates.
Other Trump-aligned government organizations searched for the word “gay” and decided to substitute the word “homosexual” for “gay.” That meant that Olympic championship track star and 2nd fastest man in the world Tyson Gay is now referred to as “Tyson Homosexual.” Who’s next? Motown singer Marvin Homosexual?
A few years ago, after the murder of George Floyd, a section of a main thoroughfare in Washington, D.C. was painted with “Black Lives Matter.” That section is now being painted over.
Most non-Trump supporters have known that Donald Trump, whose father was a card-carrying member of the KKK, is a racist. The only Black people he even acknowledges are those who kowtow to him. He has no Black people in his cabinet, not even those who said they “loved” him, like Rep. Tim Scott (R-SC).
People also know that Elon Musk, who was born and raised in apartheid South Africa, wants to make the United States an apartheid-like country, making racism an almost official policy.
Some Trump policies want to give preferential treatment to those areas whose demographics contain high numbers of (white) married families with children (not counting LGBTQA families, of course). Vice President J.D. Vance is complaining that “woke” policies are emasculating white masculinity.
The nation’s service academies, including West Point, have paused their recruitment efforts at large Black events and are trying to eliminate or decrease women and LGBTQA as recruits or candidates at their schools.
Much of the mainstream media, many schools, companies, and other organizations are eliminating their DEI initiatives due to directives from the Trump administration.
According to the ACLU, “We the People” means ALL the people.
It is up to us to ensure that happens, despite the attempts by Trump and Musk to “Make America White Again.”

I’d add the old adage WASP, because we know what they REALLY mean.
