President Donald Trump marked Black History Month with an event Thursday at the White House that featured several of the Republican’s famous Black supporters. The celebration stands in sharp contrast to Trump’s attacks against diversity programs and discussions of race.

The ceremony comes as the Trump administration has pushed to eradicate diversity programs from the government, which some agencies have interpreted to end the observance of identity-based months.

This time Trump made the remark during an official White House event at the East Room in the presence of mostly Black supporters. This remark comes at a time when there is growing concern about him trying to use his presidential powers beyond the limits of the Constitution.
