London's iconic Museum of the Home is renaming its traditional Christmas exhibit in an attempt to be more inclusive to other holidays.
"Britain’s museum sector has been completely captured by the woke cult," said Toby Young, the founder of the U.K.'s Free Speech Union.
Young's comments come as the Museum of the Home in London announced that it will "celebrate Diwali, Hanukkah, Christmas, Lunar New Year and learn how they are marked at home," according to the Sun.
A "celebration of the winter solstice through a Black, queer lens" will be featured in the museum's Rooms Through Time collection.
The museum, which was founded in 1914, has long featured displays that examine home life from 1600 to the present. Its holiday exhibit, which explored family living rooms from the Tudor era to 2010, has proven to be a popular draw.
The museum, which had been known for over a century as the Geffrye Museum, changed its name to the Museum of the Home last year after undergoing a significant renovation in an effort to distance itself from the slave trader Robert Geffrye of the 1600s.
"Because Robert Geffrye didn’t create the museum, it was an easier decision," Sonia Solicari, the museum's director, said. "It’s not his collection, [and] he may or may not have liked the idea of a museum in his almshouses."
The building's former rear entrance still has a statue of Geffrye atop it, but the museum has expressed a desire to move it from its current prominent position.
"We believe there is potential to retain the statue on site but in an alternative and less prominent space, where we can better tell the full story of the history of the buildings and Robert Geffrye's life, including his involvement in transatlantic slavery," the museum said in a statement last year, according to a BBC report. "We are confronting, challenging and learning from the uncomfortable truths of the origins of the museum buildings, to fulfill our commitment to diversity and inclusion."
