Air Force removes lessons on black WWII pilots following Trump diversity order

The US Air Force has removed lessons on black and female pilots from its training programs following an executive order from President Donald Trump banning diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. This includes material on the Tuskegee Airmen and Women Airforce Service Pilots. Previously, trainees learned about these pioneering servicemen and women as part of DEI courses. The Air Force stated it took immediate steps to comply with the president's order, which aims to eliminate programs that consider race, gender, or other characteristics. Trump's order affects federal agencies, and similar actions have been taken by major companies like Meta and Amazon to reduce DEI training. The Air Force plans to provide more details on curriculum updates in the future.
