"Tubman's removal from the "Underground Railroad" page "is both offensive and absurd," Fergus Bordewich, a historian and the author of a book about the Underground Railroad, told CNN Sunday. He described the new webpage as "diminished in value by its brevity."

So perhaps Trumpers here would like to tell us how they aren't racist pieces of ----.

Trumpers is a term that should be replaced with the more accurate term "racist Nazis. Every one knows that the Underhround Railway was just a subway from Georgia to Massachussetts.

"Both the quote and an image of Tubman have since been removed, along with several references to "enslaved" people and the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850."

Ah, this wipes out Oney Judge and Harriet Tubman in one fell stroke.

Indefensible.

"Harriet Tubman had nothing to do with the underground railroad. It was all the genius Peter Navarro who set the slaves free!"

"Harriet Tubman will be erased from the pages of history."

"Israel will be erased from the pages of history."

Same energy.
