There's been much gaslighting & moderate justifying of the new Florida social studies standards, people stating the "clarifications" were designed to show Black resilience, or were just "facts." So, I thought I'd compare the African-American history standards to the Holocaust's.
On this day in 1984, Prince and The Revolution released their iconic soundtrack Purple Rain. The album received 2 Grammys, 3 American Music Awards, 2 Brit Awards, and an Academy Award for Best Original Song Score, and the album remained at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for 24 weeks.
