US EditionMost Books Pulled From Naval Academy Library Are Back on the Shelves
- In early April, the library at the Naval Academy located in Annapolis, Maryland, cleared 381 books that addressed topics related to anti-racism and gender.
- This removal came after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's office ordered the Academy to eliminate books promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion content.
- Following a Pentagon-ordered review, most of the removed books, including those on the Holocaust, feminism, civil rights, and Maya Angelou's autobiography, have returned to the shelves.
- A Defense Department memo dated May 9, authorized by Timothy Dill in his role as acting deputy defense undersecretary for personnel, established a committee that provided search terms like 'critical race theory' and 'white privilege' to identify educational materials for review.
- The ongoing review extends to other military services' libraries and aims to determine an appropriate final disposition of such materials considered incompatible with the Defense Department's mission.
