This time correspondent Zinhle Essamuah bemoaned how the School Board was pressured to unveil a stripped-down model of its class freed from racial and sexual indoctrination.

“Tonight, the School Board unveiling a brand new framework for superior placement African American research after stress from critics to not embody subjects like black lives matter and sexual orientation,” Essamuah whined on the prime of the phase. 

Essamuah added that “the School Board’s new curriculum will now not embody authors flagged by Florida officers as students of concern but it surely says the revisions have been made independently from political stress including it consulted with greater than 300 professors of African American research and piloted the course in 60 colleges throughout the nation.”  

Turning to Robert Patterson, a leftist African American Research professor at Georgetown College, Essamuah requested if these modifications will likely be sufficient for Florida to raise its ban on the course. Patterson responded that Florida will not raise the ban as a result of “it is by no means been about this course. The Governor was very clear, African American research doesn’t have academic worth. And I feel that the governor has led with that, the federal government has demonstrated that by means of coverage, by means of feedback, and so forth.” 

In actuality, Florida already permits the instructing of African American research, simply not any programs that embody “queer idea”, the Marxist theories of the Black Lives Matter group, or different racial or sexual indoctrination.
