Bea Arthur webpage reinstated after Trump DEI purge

Bea Arthur webpage reinstated after Trump DEI purge

A webpage about the late Golden Girls actress and gay icon Bea Arthur has been reinstated after falling foul of the Trump administration’s campaign against diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).

Previously, X account ‘tortured marketing department’ (@swiftillery) revealed the page about Arthur on the US Department of Defense (DOD) website had been scrubbed.

Arthur, who died in 2009, enlisted in 1943 as one of the first members of the United States Marine Corps Women’s Reserve.

After boot camp, she served as a typist at marine headquarters in Washington DC, before the Marine Corps accepted her transfer request to the Motor Transport School at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

She worked as a truck driver in North Carolina in 1944 and 1945, and reached the rank of Sergeant before she was honourably discharged in September 1945.

Page not found

From at least 20 March 2025, the page on the DOD website documenting Arthur’s military service began displaying a ‘404 – Page Not Found’ error message.

The URL contained the letters ‘DEIbefore’, adding credence to the theory it was a victim of US President Donald Trump’s anti-DEI campaign.

Previously, Trump’s defence secretary Pete Hegseth announced the military had until 5 March to “remove all DOD news and feature articles, photos and videos that promote [DEI]”.

The mention of DEI in the URL, and Hegseth’s order, led many to conclude Arthur’s page was deliberately yanked.

Back from the dead

But now, it appears to have been reinstated.

At time of writing, the page canvassing Arthur’s military service and subsequent entertainment career, was accessible.

The summary of Bea Arthur’s life, written by David Vergun, contains extensive information about the actress, including her support of DEI.

“Arthur was born Bernice Frankel and was raised in a Jewish home in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. She was a longtime champion of equal rights for women and an active advocate for the elderly and Jewish communities in her major television roles, charity work and personal outspokenness,” one section says.

Gay icon

Another passage states: “She embraced the gay community, which had supported her professionally since the 1970s. Late in life, Arthur took up the cause of homelessness among LGBTQ+ youths.”

One of the biggest gay icons of the 20th century, Arthur initially attracted the community’s attention through her camp roles in Broadway musicals.

She played the role of Vera Charles in the original Broadway production of Mame from 1966 to 1970.

Sassy roles on television – including Maude Findlay in Maude (1972-1978) and Dorothy Zbornak on The Golden Girls (1985 to 1992) – bolstered her status as a community favourite.

Multiple episodes of The Golden Girls dealt with LGBT+ issues, with Dorothy displaying inclusive attitudes.

Arthur’s charity work for queer youth cemented her status as a rainbow community favourite.

When she passed away at the age of 89, she left $300,000 to a shelter for homeless gay teenagers in her will.

The performer was also a long-term benefactor to the Ali Forney Centre, a New York-based homeless LGBT+ charity.

While she was twice married to men (Robert Alan Aurthur from1944 to 1950 and Gene Saks from 1950 to 1978) there were persistent rumours that she was a lesbian or bisexual.

It remains to be seen whether her DOD webpage stays online.

The Fairly Oddparents: A New Wish

@fandomshatepeopleofcolor

@fandomshatepeoplewdisabilities

I have something to share about The Fairly Oddparents: A New Wish, which is on indefinite hiatus with no confirmation of a second season and it is almost a year after this show premiered.

As I said before, one of the showrunner and co executive producer of the show is Ashleigh Crystal Hairston who also voices the main character Hazel Wells. She also voices many side characters in the show as shown here.

The show aired on May 20, 2024 on Nickelodeon in the USA and the first 10 episodes were released on Netflix on November 14, 2024 internationally and there has been no announcement for the last 10 episodes to be released. All 20 episodes are on Paramount Plus on the USA.

All 20 episodes aired in the European, Middle East, and African Region on May 26, 2025 on Nickelodeon.

This is what Gary LeRoi Gray who voices AJ on the Fairly Oddparents and its sequel A New Wish had to say about on the day after the premiere.

I tagged fandomshatepeoplewithdisabilities because the protagonist has mental health conditions as confirmed here by the other showrunner, Lindsay Katai.

Also here is the reception of the show on Netflix.

It won the Kidscreen Award. Also the two adults standing beside Hazel are her parents, Angela and Marcus Wells.

It also won the Outstanding GLAAD Children's Program Award too.

I want to post these three pictures in particularly. The two other kids in the images are Hazel best friends, Jasmine Tran, and Winn Harper. Jasmine who is beside Hazel is Vietnamese American and Winn Harper is non binary European American.

Some people said that it is probably too expensive to make, but according to Gary LeRoi Gray's it is not the case.

There is no offical merchandise or supplemental material for the Fairly Oddparents: A New Wish either.

Thank you, Jasmine Crockett, you told it like it is, was, and if things don't change, will always be!

"White men" and "oppression" do not belong in the same sentence. Now, "white men" and "oppressors," on the other hand, go together like mashed potatoes and gravy.

Buying copies of banned books is awesome, but I also want to put this out there. If anyone is in college and/or has access to peer reviewed academic journals PLEASE do the following:

Buy USB drives

Download as many articles from academic journals in the coming months as you can about topics under attack, such as gender variance, DEI, critical race theory, racism, reproductive rights, climate change, and so on. Maybe pick one or two journals and topics to focus on per month! (There may be pay walls or limits on how many you can freely download)

Keep them organized on your USB’s by topic or journal

We don’t really know what will happen, what will get erased or censored from the web, but they’re already taking websites down related to DEI and reproductive rights. We need to work together to save the research and literature that we have!

Navigating the DEI Landscape: Embracing Complexity, Overcoming Division

DEI is not about replacing one form of discrimination with another but about creating environments where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed based on their merits and contributions.

In recent years, the acronym “DEI” – Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – has become a staple in conversations across various domains, from corporate boardrooms to academic circles and beyond. It represents an aspirational vision of a society where every individual, irrespective of their background, identity, or circumstances, is afforded equitable opportunities and esteemed for their unique…

Hey, the US gov just put up a tip line for teachers who say DEI or woke stuff. I’m sending this to any of the accounts I follow that seem able and potentially willing to spread this so we can spam it into uselessness! Link to form: https://enddei.ed.gov/

To make it easier, click here.

Everyone go spam the hell out of this! Let’s let these motherfuckers know we are not interred in their witch-hunting!
