The government under President Donald Trump is bending the arc of US history in a new direction, away from the civil rights focus of the past 60 plus years.
The article from CNN dated May 2, 2025, discusses former President Donald Trump's efforts to rollback civil rights protections, focusing on his administration's actions that impacted voting rights, protections for the LGBTQ+ community, and affirmative action policies. Trump's policies aimed at reducing what he described as "overreach" by previous administrations, leading to significant changes such as the reversal of guidelines that protected transgender students and the weakening of the Voting Rights Act's enforcement. Critics argue that these rollbacks have disproportionately affected marginalized communities, exacerbating existing inequalities. The article also highlights ongoing legal challenges and public protests against these policy changes, indicating a deeply polarized response to Trump's civil rights agenda.
