The U.S. Naval Academy has undertaken the removal of nearly 400 books from its library that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in compliance with directives from the Defense Secretary's office. This action seems to be part of a broader initiative by the Trump administration to eliminate DEI-related content from federal institutions. The Navy's compliance follows an initial identification of around 900 books for scrutiny, leading to this controversial library purge. While it does not directly fall under earlier executive orders regarding K-12 education, the action reflects an intensified focus on regulating curriculum and resources within military academies.
"The Naval Academy's removal of nearly 400 books marks a significant step in the Trump administration's effort to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion materials from federal agencies."
"Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell stated that all service academies are committed to executing President Trump's Executive Orders regarding DEI content, reflecting broader policy changes."
