法律专家呼吁史密森尼学会领导层改组，痛批博物馆展品中充斥“恶毒垃圾”

一位法律专家呼吁史密森尼学会美国历史国家博物馆（NMAH）进行领导层全面改革，认为该博物馆对美国过往历史采取了消极、“自我厌恶”的叙事方式。
“我认为这是左翼激进分子更广泛行动的一部分，他们试图重新定义美国历史，将其重构为压迫者与被压迫者的对立叙事，”传统基金会高级法律研究员、前华盛顿特区联邦助理检察官卡里·斯蒂姆森对福克斯新闻数字频道表示。
“他们没有按时间顺序审视美国历史，既看到胜利也看到悲剧——包括奴隶制，以及我国为消除奴隶制残余所做的努力，之后通过了第十三、第十四和第十五条修正案，通过了民权法案，废除了各种在实践或精神上具有歧视性的法律。相反，他们采取了一种非常支持赔偿、‘我们是邪恶国家’的压迫者与被压迫者叙事。”
这番言论发表于2026年7月一份白宫报告指责史密森尼学会推进多元化、公平性与包容性（DEI）及左翼议程之后，随即引发了两场激烈的国会听证会，将美国历史国家博物馆馆长安西娅·哈蒂格推到了全国舆论的聚光灯下。

议员们指责博物馆领导层允许政治 activism 渗透进展品，影响历史的呈现方式，而哈蒂格则坚称博物馆无党派立场，“不会在美国的政治辩论中站队”。
斯蒂姆森称，听证会揭露了“他们试图伪装成历史的恶毒垃圾”，并表示“阳光是最好的消毒剂”。
“如果史密森尼学会负责人还有丝毫羞耻心，她早就应该体面地辞职，但她毫无羞耻之心，因为她对自己的所作所为完全满意，”斯蒂姆森说，“她不过是激进分子阵营的先锋，正试图将这种叙事强行灌输给美国民众。”
斯蒂姆森表示，哈蒂格本应在听证会结束“那一刻就被解雇”，原因是他所称的在作证过程中表现出“自命不凡、自以为是”，且拒不承担责任。
“她低头写问题的样子，还有她那副自鸣得意的神态，恰恰暴露了她对美国民众和国会监督的真实看法，”他说。

回顾2026年7月美国建国250周年庆祝活动，当时数十万民众来到华盛顿特区庆祝这一里程碑，斯蒂姆森称，民众在博物馆里看到的却是“各种令人作呕的内容，奴隶制捆绑，以及其他各种肮脏的东西”。
报告和听证会提及的一些争议展品包含露骨的性内容，聚焦种族、性别和性取向，且仅从开国元勋与奴隶制的关联角度刻画他们，而非他们在建设美国过程中扮演的角色。
“本应该有一整个展区专门介绍开国元勋、1787年制宪会议、重建修正案以及所有相关历史事件，包括内战，但没有，”他说。
斯蒂姆森称，美国经历了无数起伏，“才摆脱了我们历史上的丑陋篇章”，如今的美国人有理由为这个国家感到自豪。
“我们不应该拥有一个专门宣扬鞭挞和自我厌恶的博物馆，”他说，“这不是庆祝国家的方式。”
许多民主党人也指责共和党试图“美化历史”，斯蒂姆森驳斥了这一说法，称颂扬美国并不意味着无视其过往的黑暗面。

“颂扬历史不等于美化历史，”他说，“纵观人类历史，每个文明都曾存在奴隶制。这不能证明奴隶制是对的，但它是客观事实。”
但斯蒂姆森表示，这种历史教学方式不仅限于博物馆，这种担忧“值得所有人警惕”。
“你能在高等教育中看到这种倾向，不幸的是，在高中甚至更低年级的学校里也能看到，遗憾的是，在我们顶尖的国家博物馆中也存在，包括美国历史博物馆，”他说。
斯蒂姆森表示，人们应该从新冠疫情期间吸取教训，当时居家隔离的家长亲眼目睹了孩子们正在学习的内容。
“这就是为什么越来越多的人选择在家教育，越来越多的人支持学校选择运动，这种趋势在全国范围内呈爆发式增长，”他说。
他补充道，“父母是孩子的第一任老师”，他们有责任“以正确的方式讲述美国历史”。
斯蒂姆森认为，彻底的重组或许是这家博物馆所需要的。

“事情就是这样，”他说，“这就是恶毒的垃圾。需要连根拔起，彻底清除，然后重新来过。”

Legal expert calls for Smithsonian leadership overhaul over ‘self-loathing’ portrayal of history: ‘It’s bile’

Cully Stimson says Director Anthea Hartig should have been fired after heated congressional hearings over DEI concerns

Legal expert calls for Smithsonian leadership shake-up over ‘bile’ in museum exhibits
Cully Stimson spoke to Fox News Digital about the need for new Smithsonian leadership, calling its portrayal of American history “bile” that should be “ripped out, root and branch.”

A legal expert is calling for a leadership overhaul at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History (NMAH), arguing the museum has embraced a negative, “self-loathing” portrayal of the nation’s past.
“I think this is part of a broader effort by radicals on the left to redefine the history of the United States and reframe it in an oppressor-versus-oppressed narrative,” Cully Stimson, a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation and former assistant U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C., told Fox News Digital.
“Instead of looking at American history chronologically with all the triumphs and tragedies, including slavery, and then the things that our country did to eradicate the vestiges of slavery, and then passing the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments and the Civil Rights Acts and getting rid of various other laws that were discriminatory in practice or in spirit. They take a very pro-reparations, ‘we’re a bad country,’ oppressor-versus-oppressed narrative.”
The comments come after a July 2026 White House report accused the Smithsonian of advancing DEI and left-wing agendas, prompting a pair of heated congressional hearings that put National Museum of American History Director Anthea Hartig under the national spotlight.

Lawmakers accused museum leaders of allowing political activism to seep into exhibits and influence how history is presented, while Hartig maintained that the museum is nonpartisan and “does not take sides in America’s political debates.”
Stimson said the hearings are exposing “bile that they’re trying to pass off as history,” saying “sunlight’s a good disinfectant.”
“If the head of the Smithsonian had any shame whatsoever, she would have resigned in disgrace already and she doesn’t have any shame because she’s perfectly happy with what she’s done,” Stimson said. “She’s just the pointy end of the radical spear that’s out there trying to force this thing down the throats of Americans.”
Stimson said Hartig should have been fired “the minute after the hearing” for what he called “smug and self-righteous” behavior during her testimony and for failing to take accountability.
“Her little writing the question down and her smugness was really evincing of what she really thinks of the American people and congressional oversight,” he said.

Looking back to America’s 250th anniversary celebrations in July, when hundreds of thousands of people came to D.C. to celebrate the milestone, Stimson said families and children were instead greeted with “all sorts of disgusting things, bondage, and all sorts of other nasty things” at the museum.
Some of the controversial exhibits highlighted in the report and hearings featured sexually explicit material, focused on race, gender and sexuality, and portrayed the Founding Fathers through their ties to slavery rather than their roles in building America.
“There should be an entire section dedicated toward the Founding Fathers and the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and the Reconstruction Amendments and all the things that happened, the Civil War, but no,” he said.
Stimson said America has gone through many ups and downs “to get beyond the ugly parts of our history,” giving Americans reason to celebrate the country today.
“We should not have a museum dedicated to flagellation and self-loathing,” he said. “That is not how you celebrate your country.”
Many Democrats have also accused Republicans of trying to “whitewash” history, a claim Stimson rejected, saying that celebrating America does not mean ignoring the darker parts of its past.

“Celebrating doesn’t mean whitewashing history,” he said. “Every civilization throughout mankind has had slavery. That doesn’t make it right, it makes it reality.”
But Stimson said this approach to teaching history goes further than the museums and that the concern is “something you need to be aware of.”
“You see this in higher ed, you see this unfortunately in high school and even below in lower schools, and unfortunately at our premier national museums, including the American History Museum,” he said.
Stimson said people should take away the same lessons that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, when parents isolated at home got a firsthand look at what their children were being taught.
“That’s why you saw more and more homeschoolers, more and more people in the school choice movement just explode across the country,” he said.
He added “parents are the first educators of their children” and it’s up to them “to present American history” the right way.
A complete reset could be what the museum needs, according to Stimson.

“That’s all it is,” he said. “It’s bile. It needs to be ripped out, root and branch, and redone.”
