Donald Trump’s administration won’t allow a Ku Klux Klan member convicted of murdering a civil rights leader to be labeled a racist.
To kick off Black History Month, the Trump administration has directed the National Park Service to scrub any mention of racism from the brochures and a plaque outside the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument in Jackson, Mississippi, including removing language labeling Medgar Evers’ killer as a racist, Mississippi Today reported.
However, a white house official told the Daily Beast that the changes were not authorized by the administration and accused employees of a deliberate act. The incident is under investigation.
Assassin Byron De La Beckwith, a Ku Klux Klan member, waited in the bushes outside Evers’ home on June 12, 1963, until the civil rights leader returned from an NAACP meeting, then shot him in the back in his driveway. Evers died lying in a pool of his own blood—a grisly scene that federal officials have also removed references to.
