The planned book talk at the Jimmy Carter Library was unexpectedly canceled due to new approval processes imposed by the Trump administration. The event was aimed at discussing the legacy of civil rights educator Septima Poinsette Clark, featuring a photo of her with Jimmy Carter. Prior approvals for the talk were in place, highlighting a shift in criteria and increased oversight of events at the library. This cancellation points to a broader pattern of changes within the National Archives and Records Administration under the new administration, emphasizing the politicization of historical narratives.
Although I had received prior approval for my event discussing civil rights and the legacy of Septima Poinsette Clark, it was unexpectedly canceled by the newly appointed administration.
The cancellation of my book talk reflects a broader trend in which the new administration at the Jimmy Carter Library is tightly controlling programming, altering the traditional standards for event approval.
