Navajo Code Talkers disappear from military websites after Trump DEI order

Articles about the renowned Native American Code Talkers have disappeared from some military websites, with several broken URLs now labeled "DEI."

Why it matters: From 1942 to 1945, the Navajo Code Talkers were instrumental in every major Marine Corps operation in the Pacific Theater of World War II.

A two-man team of Navajo code talkers attached to a Marine regiment in the Pacific relay orders over the field radio using their native language. The Navajo language was a particularly effective code during World War II, as it is not a written language and few people understand it.

It would be silly to think, in this time of spectacular fools, that the Donald Trump administration mandate to kill diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs was simply a workplace issue. What’s happening is bigger than that, says Vernā Myers, and it will have implications for years to come. The US government has declared war on American culture."

"The US defense department webpage celebrating an army general who served in the Vietnam war and was awarded the country’s highest military decoration has been removed and the letters “DEI” added to the site’s address.

On Saturday, US army Maj Gen Charles Calvin Rogers’s Medal of Honor webpage led to a '404' error message. The URL was also changed, with the word 'medal' changed to 'deimedal'."

"What I have tried to say over and over again to those people in my writing is that your silence will not save you. Palestinian rights, trans rights, women’s rights: these are not separate issues. Unless you are a Maga supporter at the top of the food chain, the Trump administration will be coming for you too."

"A presidential campaign built on the Big Lie, and incorporating lots of little lies, is intolerant of images, voices or evidence at odds with its worldview. It has only one vision of America in mind, much of it fanciful, and so it will erase anyone not part of that narrative."

But if it's good my 401(k)….

Many of us voted to purge others of us and I suspect the purges are just starting.

"An NIH mural featuring Anthony Fauci was removed.

More systematically, it is also the removal of women, persons of color, and trans people, following executive orders around DEI and gender. Here, the removals signal the end one form of representation that valued inclusiveness and a broader understanding and acknowledgment of people whose stories were not always told."

"Right now, the federal government is engaged in a dramatic purging of visual representations of American history and its current workforce. Some of this is a Stalinist removal of former officials. The official portraits of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, and Trump Secretary of Defense Mark Esper are gone."

To be clear, DEI was our societal effort to get the best employees, students, leaders, etc instead of them being bypassed by lesser candidates. The myth of the exclusively meritorious white male had to be busted for the betterment of the nation. #DEI

Apropos of nothing else...I just drafted my company's first written #DEI policy.

That likely means that I won't get any government contracts under this regime - but I would prefer to grow slowly and sustainably with other clients rather than compromise my ethics by dealing with the current poor examples of humanity that are occupying the corridors of power.
