Ron DeSantis government bans new advanced African American history course

Florida officials have blocked the introduction of a new advanced-level high school course that teaches African American history.

Governor Ron DeSantis' administration said the proposed course "lacks educational value and is contrary to Florida law".

The course is being rolled out in a pilot programme by the US College Board to 60 high schools across the country.

Officials did not specify what law the course breaks.

A statement by a spokesperson for Florida's Republican governor DeSantis said the course "leaves large, ambiguous gaps that can be filled with additional ideological material, which we will not allow".


"In Florida, we are taking a stand against the state-sanctioned racism that is critical race theory," Mr DeSantis said, citing the academic framework that denotes the existence of systemic racism in American society. yep he knows he need the MAGA white victimized base to win the nomination

Ron is in full blown culture war mode gearing up for His 2024 run and Florida is his guinea pig
what’s he at again, exactly?

If FL is his guinea pig, the facts suggest the people are thrilled with the results. He single handedly turned a huge, purple state red. 850 people a day from other states, are moving there.

but he’s a failure. right. He offered signing bonuses to cops when liberals wanted to get rid of them. His states unemployment didn’t increase as much as other states because he didn’t lock down as long. His schools
we’re open longer because he saw, sooner than almost everyone else, that there was no reason to close them.

And zero state i come tax.

Either she’s a terrific governor, or he’s a moron who’s been unbelievably lucky. Educated at yale and harvard, joined the military, sticking by his wife who has cancer.

You’re terrified of him, and with very good reason.

I don’t like what he did with disney, he’s not perfect. but if he can somehow get the nomination, then if the election were today, the only democrat who’d have a prayer is Michelle Obama. Nobody could defeat her.

General Flynn was in the military

Don’t be fooled by military service or education or his latest election victory.. against a bad candidate

And paying bonuses for cops with other people’s money is not brave Jim it unethical and political

Florida has never has income tax since 1968 nothing to do with Ron

but if he can somehow get the nomination

How could he lose with all these campaign stunts

But somehow using other people’s money to pay student loans and/or reparations is A-OK……..nothing unethical or political there.

Another one who doesn’t understand the difference between for the Social good . And the responsibility of a nation to admit it was wrong

Last time I checked no student’s loans are canceled.. or forgiven thanks to the GOP. Who of course think No Conservatives students would benefit

Poor Ron doesn’t even hide why he does what he does he’s helping himself .

the lack of actual principles, is stunning.

Everything is ok when democrats do it, everything is evil when republicans do it.

P.S. false equivalence! I call false equivalence!

Hey einstein, where does every single cent you ever made as a corrections officer, come from? Do you have a lemonade stand yiu set up that generates that money? Or does it come
From the confiscation of other peoples
money? Which is ok, as long as it flows to you.

The guy who supports the idea that everyone else should kick in and repay part of his kid’s student loans, all of a sudden says public spending is unethical?

Wayne, he won in a landslide. His constituents think you are full of crap.
