DeSantis WINS


DeSantis, who has made removing 'ideological conformity' in education a headline of his leadership, said he would ban the course being taught in Florida's schools.

Across four broad units, the course covers many, mostly uncontroversial topics ranging from origins of the African diaspora to slavery and civil rights.

Authors who have been removed from the draft include Columbia law professor Kimberlé W. Crenshaw, a leading scholar in critical race theory, and Ta-Nehisi Coates, who has written about the case for reparations for African Americans.


GOOD!

The publication of the course curriculum comes just one day after DeSantis announced a series of reforms to Florida's higher education system that he said were designed to remove 'political activism' from teaching and instead 'promote academic excellence'.

P.S. And to my perpetual downvoter, get a brain!
