I didn't mean to imply that it isn't intended to affect the Smithsonian. I meant, in addition, the order takes time to give directives to the Secretary of the Interior to change every park, monument, and memorial on federally owned land, which means everything managed by the National Park Service.

![When Louisiana was purchased in 1803, 2,000–3,000 slaves were within the limits of what is now Missouri, of which only the eastern and southern portions were then settled. By 1860 the Black population comprised 9.7% of the state's total including 3,572 free negroes and 114,931 who were enslaved.[3] By the beginning of the American Civil War, 32% of counties in Missouri had 1,000 or more enslaved individuals. Males cost up to $1,300.[4] In the State Auditor's 1860 report, the total value of all enslaved people in Missouri was estimated at US$44,181,912 (~$1.22 billion in 2023).

![Little Dixie is a historic 13- to 17-county region along the Missouri River in central Missouri, United States. Its early Anglo-American settlers were largely migrants from the hemp and tobacco districts of Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee. They brought enslaved African Americans with them or purchased them as workers in the region. Because Southerners settled there first, the pre-Civil War culture of the region was similar to that of the Upper South. The area was also known as Boonslick country.[1]
A 1948 article in the Missouri Historical Review defined the antebellum "Little Dixie" region as a 13-county area between the Mississippi River north of St. Louis to Missouri River counties in the central part of the state (Audrain, Boone, Callaway, Chariton, Howard, Lincoln, Pike, Marion, Monroe, Ralls, Randolph, Saline, and Shelby counties).[2]
When the Southerners migrated to Missouri, they brought their cultural, social, agricultural, architectural, political and economic practices, including slavery. Overall, Missouri's slave population represented 10 percent of the state's population in the 1860 U.S. Census. But in Little Dixie, county and township slave populations ranged from 20 to 50 percent by 1860, with the highest percentages for the counties developed for large plantations along the Missouri river. New Madrid County, along the Mississippi River south of St. Louis, also had a high percentage of enslaved Africans, but was not considered part of the region.

![https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cr%C3%A9mieux_Decree
The Crémieux Decree (French: Décret Crémieux; IPA: [kʁemjø]) was a law that granted French citizenship to the majority of the Jewish population in French Algeria (around 35,000), signed by the Government of National Defense on 24 October 1870 during the Franco-Prussian War. It was named after French-Jewish lawyer and Minister of Justice Adolphe Crémieux.[1]
The decree automatically made the native Algerian Jews French citizens, while their Muslim Arab and Berber neighbors were excluded and remained under the second-class indigenous status outlined in the code de l'Indigénat. As a result, the decree did not grant citizenship to the Berber Mozabite Jews, who were only granted "common law civil status" and French citizenship in 1961, over ninety years later.[2]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v67ylue6b72aed7esdnxmpao/bafkreicqebyod4zllf7i3xnew4nnog443aixapyn42ksor4wizlmyosdnu)

Muslim Algerians could apply individually for French citizenship on paper, but this required that they formally renounce Islam and its laws[3] and their requests were additionally very seldom accepted. That set the scene for deteriorating relations between the Muslim and Jewish communities, with tensions increased by the colonial administration's discrimination between natives and citizens. Seeing a fellow Algerian become a first-class citizen while being left as a second-class citizen made them suspect of collaboration with the colonial authorities as harkis and strongly divided locals.[4]
This eventually proved fateful in the 1954–1962 Algerian War, where suspects of French collaboration were seen as enemies of the revolution and traitors of the people and the nation, after which the vast majority of the Jews of Algeria emigrated to France.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v67ylue6b72aed7esdnxmpao/bafkreiaymmajhh6hy3ihcribh5w4624v5meaf6nzku7wgr32bnhp3fd45e)
