This is vile, though not the first time the Smithsonian has been targeted by right wing idiots. We need to strategize how to continue memory and heritage work with diverse communities during such attacks. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Pres AndrewJackson (!) was offered a coffin thought to have held a Roman emperor.His reply "I cannot consent my mortal body shall be laid in a repository prepared for an Emp. or a King; my republican feelings & principles forbid it,the simplicity of our system of government forbids it". A message?
Exhausted by the news, the Fox of Greenwich Village had gone to see an exhibition of watercolours by Thomas Moran at the Met. He walked listlessly from painting to painting, his mind churning over the morning paper, the violent rives torn daily in the fragile veil of democracy by men so monstrous that their very souls had fled their mortal frames. Wiping away a sudden tear, he reached the final landscape and was abruptly, unexpectedly, spellbound. A fiery sunset over the ocean, a study so slight and yet so skilful, so beautiful, so ephemeral, it sent shivers all the way to the end of his white-tipped tail and his long elegant whiskers. He moved closer to read the faint pencil inscription, suddenly desperate to know which sea, which eternal sky had been captured in those delicate washes of paint. And there it was, in the artist's clear and distinctive hand: "T. Moran, 1883. The Gulf of Mexico."
