Some Black churches are pledging to support the National Museum of African American History and Culture following an executive order by President Donald Trump alleging exhibits there and at other Smithsonian Institution sites have expressed a “divisive, race-centered ideology.”

Turner knelt in prayer and laid a wreath at the entrance of the museum in support of its mission, which incurred President Donald Trump’s criticism alongside other Smithsonian Institution sites. In a March 27 executive order, Trump alleged that Smithsonian exhibits had disparaged the nation’s history via a “divisive, race-centered ideology.”
