DEVELOPING: New College of Florida dumped hundreds of library books this afternoon.

The school also emptied the college’s Gender and Diversity Center, tossing hundreds of their books.

Working to file a story now.

Anyway, more about Project 2025:

Did y’all know that FAFSA and Pell Grants ($ for students from low-income families) are issued by the US Department of Education?

Project 2025 will eliminate the US Department of Education, FAFSA, and Pell Grants. This is a Trump-Vance policy.

It is all part of a decades-long conservative campaign to co-opt the language of the civil rights movement and use it to dismantle any programs that might actually help bring about equality for descendants of slavery by claiming these efforts amount to anti-white “reverse” discrimination. As sociologist Stuart Hall once wrote, “Those who produce the discourse also have the power to make it true.”

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

What we are witnessing, once again, is the alignment of white power against racial justice and redress. We now have a legal landscape that takes the very laws created to eliminate the anti-Black caste system and uses them destroy racial justice efforts. The Supreme Court has determined actual school segregation is fine, but efforts to remedy it are unconstitutional.
