This change was accompanied by the removal of Juneteenth and Martin Luther King Jr. Day from the list of free admission days. Other fee-free days now include Presidents day, Memorial Day, Independence Day weekend, Constitution Day, the 110th anniversary of the National Park Service, Theodore Roosevelt&#8217;s birthday, and Veterans Day.<\/p>\n<p>This shift marks a departure from the 2025 schedule, which had honored Juneteenth and MLK Day, holidays meaningful to Black Americans and civil rights.The change sparked criticism from some Democrats who viewed it as racially insensitive.<\/p>\n<p>The article also discusses controversies surrounding Juneteenth celebrations, citing incidents of violence, and critiques what the author terms &#8220;white guilt&#8221; and the ongoing societal focus on America&#8217;s history of slavery. Drawing on economist Thomas Sowell&#8217;s commentary, the article argues that slavery has affected many races throughout history, not just Black Americans, and notes the persistence of slavery in some parts of the world today, highlighting perceived inconsistencies in political outrage.<\/p>\n<p>the piece frames the policy change as a rejection of race-focused narratives and criticizes what it describes as a left-wing grievance industry profiting from America&#8217;s ancient slavery issues.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump trolled race-hustling leftists by adding Flag Day &mdash;
