Flipboard Culture Desk<p>The USA's history is littered with shameful moments and dark chapters — and in recent years, historical sites have begun to acknowledge this in their communications with visitors. That may be about to change. The Trump administration is now posting signs asking visitors to report historical information “negative about either past or living Americans," the Colorado Sun reports. Last Friday, signs went up at the Amache site where Japanese Americans were incarcerated during World War II, and at the Sand Creek Massacre site where U.S. troops killed peaceful Southern Cheyenne and Arapaho people in 1865. “I interpret it as a direct threat to why we have national parks,” said Tracy Coppola, Colorado senior program manager for the southwest regional office of the nonprofit National Parks Conservation Association. “Definitely a chilling effect on our park rangers, whose job is to tell the story of these places. The Park Service is not partisan, and they represent all of us.”</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/q8UVXF" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/q8UVXF</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Culture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Culture</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USHistory</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/NationalParks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NationalParks</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/JapaneseAmerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JapaneseAmerican</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/NativeAmerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NativeAmerican</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/TrumpAdministration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrumpAdministration</span></a></p>
