Together we will preserve the full story of our nation.
Sign from Independence National Historical Park
The National Park Service is the nation’s largest outdoor history classroom. Spanning over 400 sites, the Parks work tirelessly to fulfill their legal mandate to steward our nation’s stories and make them accessible to all Americans.
Real history is not just happy stories.
The Secretary of the Interior has asked people to report signs in the Parks that “inappropriately disparage Americans past or living.” This grows out of Executive Order 14253, “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History,” which seeks to erase “negative” stories from public view. Some signs have already been removed.
Join our effort to build a community archive of the signs, exhibits, and texts that could soon disappear from our national parks.
We must act quickly to preserve all Americans’ stories.
