DeSantis Discusses Ban of High School AP African American Studies Class That Contained CRT and Section on Queer Theory
Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has spoken to reporters about why his administration has barred an AP African American studies course from being taught in the state’s schools.
The course was banned after a review found that it violated the state law prohibiting CRT from being taught in classrooms. It also contained a section on “queer theory.”
Naturally, the left lost their minds over the ban, accusing Governor Ron DeSantis of implementing a “Don’t Say Black” rule, alluding to the “Don’t Say Gay” nickname for his Parental Rights in Education law.
“They’re advocating things like abolishing prisons. Now that’s a radical political position,” DeSantis told reporters. “You’re free to take that in your own life, I don’t think very many people think that would actually work, but how is that being taught as fact?”
“It’s not fair to say that somehow abolishing prisons is linked to black experiences, that that’s what black people want,” the governor continued.” I think they want law and order, just like anybody else wants law and order. So that is more ideology being used under the guise of history, and we want to do history.”
DeSantis’ office said they are ensuring Florida schools “utilize accurate, historical curriculum.”
