According to the Associated Press, the Air Force has removed training courses featuring videos of the Tuskegee Airmen to comply with the Trump administration’s crackdown on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
The Tuskegee Airmen, the nation’s first Black military pilots, ferried warplanes during World War II and played a critical role in U.S. military history.
The Air Force confirmed the removal of these videos, which had been part of DEI training in basic military courses. Officials stated they are executing directives in the Executive Orders with professionalism and alignment with national security goals.
However, the broad interpretation of these orders has caused agencies to remove content proactively to ensure compliance.
