美国在2025年从荷兰墓地撤走纪念二战黑人士兵的面板, U.S. removed panels honoring Black WWII soldiers from a Dutch cemetery in 2025, citing policy shifts, sparking outcry over erased history.

2025年春,美国从荷兰玛格拉特的美国公墓撤走了两个纪念第二次世界大战黑战士兵的小组,引起荷兰官员、退伍军人家属和当地居民的反弹。 The U.S. removed two panels honoring Black World War II soldiers from the American Cemetery in Margraten, the Netherlands, in spring 2025, sparking backlash from Dutch officials, veterans’ families, and local residents. 这些小组强调非裔美国人部队,包括士兵George H. Pruitt的服役情况以及军方的隔离政策,但未经公开解释便被撤消。 The panels, which highlighted the service of African American troops, including soldier George H. Pruitt and the military’s segregation policies, were taken down without public explanation. 总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)的行政命令终止联邦多元化、公平和包容倡议, Internal emails indicate the move followed President Donald Trump’s executive orders ending federal diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. 美国作战纪念碑委员会指出,隔离小组与其纪念任务不符,并说普鲁特的展品被“旋转出来”,代之以一名白人士兵。 The American Battle Monuments Commission stated the segregation panel did not align with its commemorative mission and said the Pruitt display was “rotated out,” replaced by one about a white soldier. 批评者认为,清除行动抹去了历史的重要部分,破坏了战争遗留下来的共同记忆。 Critics argue the removal erases a vital part of history and undermines shared memory of the war’s legacy.
