National Archives' Racism Task Force Says Rotunda Example of 'Structural Racism'
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] The National Archives’ racism task force said in a report that its own Rotunda — which houses the Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution and Bill of Rights is an example of "structural racism."
The report, according to Fox News, attacked the Founding Fathers as "wealthy White men in the nation’s founding while marginalizing BIPOC [Black, Indigenous and other People of Color], women, and other communities."
The task force, which was established after George Floyd’s death, suggested ways to "reimagine the Rotunda" including "dance or performance art in the space that invites dialogue about the ways that the United States has mythologized the founding era."
