Arlington National Cemetery Removes Links Honoring Diverse Veterans

Website changes follow Trump administration orders targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion in military programs.

Arlington National Cemetery removed links to webpages about Black, Hispanic, and female veterans, as well as Civil War history, to comply with Trump administration directives.
The removed materials include educational content, notable grave listings, and lesson plans covering diverse military contributions.
A Pentagon memo directed a 'digital content refresh' to eliminate references to diversity, equity, and inclusion across Department of Defense platforms.
Officials stated they are working to restore some content in alignment with federal guidelines, though no timeline has been provided.
Historians and veterans' groups have criticized the changes, calling them an erasure of important historical narratives and contributions.
