Hey folks, does anyone know where I can find a full (and continually updated) list of those historical figures who have been officially deleted from government websites?
For context, I am the producer for a children's radio drama, one of the last surviving programs from the 1940s. Some of the stories we tell are modern, character-building stories, and others are purely historical.
In our most recent album, for example, we have a beautiful two-part series on Frederick Douglass, and another story on the origin of child labor laws.
I think it would be awesome if we could do a series of stories focused on those individuals who have been deleted from official government websites for being "DEI". After all, misunderstanding our history is how we got into this mess in the first place.
(I apologize if this isn't the wrong place to post this - if anybody knows of a more appropriate community, please let me know.)
I've seen several articles on the subject, but nothing like a comprehensive list. I hope you find one!
There is/was a community and subreddit called Keeptrack that tried to maintain lists of misdeeds. Maybe they're still around.
