SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Utah Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson appealed to President Donald Trump in a series of posts on X/Twitter on Thursday evening, asking him to “give us back our history.”

Henderson’s posts come after the “African American History,” “Hispanic American History,” and “Women’s History” categories were delisted from the Notable Graves section on Arlington National Cemetery’s website.

The removed categories can still be found through a Google search or by putting in the right URL as of March 7, but they are no longer easily located on the Arlington National Cemetery website. Among those graves that were affected by the change was that of Seraph Young, a prominent Utahn who became the first woman to vote in America under an equal suffrage law.

Henderson called Young an “integral part” of Utah’s state history. She said the now-historic moment was immortalized with a giant mural that overlooks the House chamber in Utah’s Capitol Building, presiding over lawmakers today.

“She is now one of the many women who have been deleted with a click of a mouse,” Henderson said. “Mr. President, this is not the way. Give us back our history.”

Young’s grave was added to the list of notable graves as a part of Women’s History under Trump’s first term in September 2020. She was listed after a ceremony introducing a new gravestone that corrected a misspelling of her name.

“We don’t celebrate these women because they are women. We celebrate them because of who they were, what they did, what they overcame, and what they mean to us,” Henderson said. “They shouldn’t be deleted simply because they are women.”

Henderson said many of the women’s stories listed in the Women’s History section of the website were salvaged from the “dustbin of time.” She said they had been brushed off and shined light on stories that deserve to be told and remembered.


“Let us rejoice in and be inspired by the successes and failures, hopes and dreams, fears and acts of courage of our foremothers. They have been forgotten for too long,” Henderson said.

President Trump has not yet made a public comment responding to Henderson.

Damn. Did a little research. The agency was created by Nixon under Executive Order. Then in 2021 legislation included in the Infrastructure + Jobs act passed Congress, signed by Biden making the agency permanent. More money, authority and resources was also thrown at the agency.

So Trump can't just wipe it away via Executive Order. This should be challenged in court. But I'm guessing they will just fire mad people and reduce the scope of the agency without actually eliminating it. Essentially making it barely functional.


Looks like from 2022 data, black people had the most contracts and biggest job creation out of all the minority races, but were behind Asians and Hispanics in captial.

When does the energy shift in the masses take place
People don't pay attention to this kind of news as long as they're not impacted and Fox News drones keep repeating "DOGE is cutting out the fraud and waste". They have to do this to clean out the "deep state"

Even now the only people who have felt it are federal employees. So masses still feel like everything is fine.

Social security and Medicaid checks getting cut will be the GOAT eye opener and spark the mass energy shift. Unfortunately it might be too late by then
