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.

Note to the self-appointed "Alpha Males" and the politicians who think gay-bashing is a winning formula:
Nobody has ever elevated themselves by putting someone else down. It's a path to inevitable self-destruction.
Lift people up.
After a self-described "alpha male" tried to troll Greta Thunberg with a bizarre tweet boasting of having "33 cars," Thunberg made him absolutely regret it.
The climate activist needed just two short sentences to reduce him to ashes. 🔥
When will they ever learn: do not come for Greta unless she sends for you.
I thought it important to pause from my holiday break to share with you this post, originally published on March 5, 2021, after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott bused asylum seekers on Christmas Eve in sub-freezing temperatures to Washington, DC. His political stunt, which included children and many who were not properly dressed for the conditions, was not a surprise, but it was particularly vile for a man who portrays himself as a Christian.
