Special Thanks:
While Jenn tackled controversial research in 2020, Congressman Charlie Crist (FL-D) and his staff supported her artistic rights by directly contacting the Smithsonian Institution for justification on policy positions. Congressman Crist opened doors that seemed sealed shut until his involvement and inquiry.
The Last Act
The Smithsonian proposes a controversial 1995 exhibit for the 50th anniversary of the end of WWII that includes the Enola Gay, atomic bomb, and exposes what happens to the Japanese after it detonates.
When misinformation saturates the media can history survive the very first battle of the culture wars?
