Ron DeSantis banned lessons on racism in Florida public schools. ‘Freedom schools’ fill the gaps
Extracurricular classes teach ‘the majesty and value of Black history’ from the origins of Africa to Jim Crow policies
this article lost its purpose with this point.
The call and response from the kids grew louder as they read a fictional story about a dystopian world without African Americans and their inventions. A folding bed, tricycle, clock, toilet, heating furnace, thermostat and air conditioner were among the innovations that no longer existed because, “Black people invented it,” the students shouted.
first of all they are all still around. and some were invented by whites and some by both races. this lesson such a mess. DeSantis was right to toss it out. it is not correct. its completely wrong.
