This was never about combatting "wokeness" or reigning in the "excesses" of DEI programs, but as we see in Florida & other places its all about the whitewashing of history. The new Florida curriculum is a textbook example of gaslighting. https://t.co/0QDqDIKEyl
Florida is changing its public school curriculum to teach that Black people benefited from slavery because — hey — at least they learned useful skills. I wish I were joking but I am not. https://t.co/a3xMlLK4fW
Florida approved new standards for school curriculum that require teachers to instruct students that enslaved people were taught skills that benefited them.
It also requires countering accounts of violence against black people with accounts of violence perpetrated by them.
