## Resource

A federal appeals court has cleared the way for the Trump administration to reinstall interpretive panels at George Washington’s former Philadelphia home — a site where the Declaration of Independence was adopted — sparking controversy over how slavery is portrayed. The new signs, approved under a 2023 executive order promoting a “greatness” narrative, replace older panels that acknowledged the nine enslaved people who lived there in the 1790s. Critics, including historians and city officials, fear the new version downplays the brutality of slavery in favor of a sanitized, celebratory tone. The City of Philadelphia, which sued to preserve the original panels, is now seeking a pause to review the new content, arguing it undermines years of collaborative efforts to tell a fuller, more honest American story. The legal battle underscores a national reckoning over how to honor painful history at iconic landmarks.
