Historian J.T. Roane Explores Black Ecologies

https://daily.jstor.org/historian-j-t-roane-explores-black-ecologies/

"J.T.

It examines how the knowledge emerging from those relationships fuels insurgent, liberatory practices.

Florida's teaching standards push educators to lie about slavery

According to Florida's new guidelines, instructors will be expected to teach that enslaved people “developed skills” that “could be applied for their personal benefit.”
