One day after quoting MLK on MLK Day, Florida MAGA Gov Ron DeSantis cancels AP African American Studies Program, saying it ‘Lacks Educational Value’

This is literally white supremacist talking points & a reminder how much these people still hate MLK today.

Indeed, DeSantis banning AP African American Studies is a reminder of that old quote -- White privilege is when your history is the curriculum and every other history is an elective.

Sadly I can only boost this once, which I did. I lived in FL for decades and yes it is a racist state, before DeSantis it was actually becoming less so, by inches not feet, not yet, but less, more accepting, I lived there I know.
DeSantis has taken it backwards to a dark time in FL history.
Andrew Gillum should've won in 2018, and what happened to him then and since reeks of Republican dirty tricks. The truth will out, eventually.
