You're saying black actors and actresses were not removed from movie posters in Europe and Asia?

Donald Trump has become the first U.S. president since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established to not issue a proclamation honoring the federal holiday, breaking a tradition observed for nearly 40 consecutive years.

At the time of publication, there is no Martin Luther King Jr. Day proclamation from Trump posted on the White House’s official website, its social media accounts, or in the Federal Register. These proclamations are usually signed days in advance of a holiday and even if Trump signed one late, his administration isn’t making the proclamation public in a timely manner. Therefore, for all intents and purposes, Trump is skipping the presidential emphasis on the MLK holiday.

The absence marks a sharp departure not only from presidential precedent dating back to Ronald Reagan, but from Trump’s own first term, during which he issued MLK Day proclamations every year from 2018 through 2021.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day was signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 and first observed as a federal holiday in 1986. In his 1986 proclamation, Reagan said, “Dr. King's activism was rooted in the true patriotism that cherishes America's ideals and strives to narrow the gap between those ideals and reality.”

Project 2025 is in full effect.

I mean is anyone really surprised.
Big deal.

Yes an apology and then what? Point is black states are not revered oversea, especially in East Asia.

And this is where they go :scared1:

Those who casually toss out that word haven't seen real racism in other parts of the world. It's mind boggling that they expect all 330 million people not to be racist. They may as well expect 330 million people don't drink and drive.
