Those cultural marxists at the College Board!

"National outrage ensued after the state rejected an AP African American Studies course, but a copy of the syllabus obtained by The Florida Standard shows the course sought to teach progressive doctrines such as intersectionality and Critical Race Theory.

Section 4 of the syllabus introduces the topic “Postracial Racism and Colorblindness” and features texts from Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, who employs Critical Race Theory in his writings...describes how “Whites talk, think, and account for the existence of racial inequality and makes clear that color-blind racism is as insidious now as ever.” ... Section 4 also includes “Black Queer Studies.” A description states: “This topic explores the concept of queer color critique, grounded in Black feminism and intersectionality, as a Black studies lens that shifts sexuality studies towards racial analysis.”

Go on crazies, keep on defending this crazy course and attacking Florida for daring say it didn't meet quality standards

Armed white supremacists with nazi flags telling people Jews are evil is ok because we need free speech but no one should talk about African American history because…well, we don”t even know why because their is no cogent argument.

Nowadays, a lot of gender ideology and other white liberal priorities are snuck in using black history as a smokescreen. There’s a lot of forced teaming of blacks with random ideologies we didn’t come up with and people who had nothing to do with our struggle. There’s also a tendency to portray blackness as negative and wholly characterized by suffering at the hands of whites — all under the guise of “sympathizing” with us. It’s insidious.

So, who knows what was bundled with actual black history in this AP African American history course.

Do you feel it’s your personal duty to review copies of all AP curricula or just this one? Who knows what was snuck in to any of the non-STEM AP class curricula. Why not start with your own child or children’s curricula and work your way up to national-level curricula? Be sure to post a copy of your critiques.

You sound unhinged. You do realize that new AP courses are always reviewed and tweaked before final approval - right? That goes for all the current AP classes. They all went through this process. Get a clue.

They’re not reviewed by governors of states who presumably have more important things to do.

You really think it’s DeSantis who comes off badly when you suggest that state governments shouldn’t make time to examine how the future of this country, children, are being educated?

He’s a bigot acting in bad faith, pandering to other bigots.

You’re entitled to your conjecture and opinion, but none of us know exactly what Florida is objecting to in the curriculum.

“Florida” didn’t object. DeSantis objected as a cynical political pander to the racist GOP base.

The governor is in charge of the Board of Education, as in most states. He is perfectly within his rights here. Educate yourself.

Interesting. Florida public schools rank squarely in the middle, rankings-wise. Right under New York, Minnesota, Illinois, and others. And above Colorado, Pennsylvania, Washington - and WELL above Michigan, California, and Oregon. So you were saying?


This is for 2023. Florida is 7th from the bottom of all states 8s what is invested per pupil in public education.

DP. This is a brand new pilot class. Reviewing it is not an unreasonable thing to do.

But random dipshits on Internet forums and racist Governors are not the approving authority for AP course curricula. This a legitimate field of study with established college curricula and requirements that can be adapted into an AP course by professionals who know what they are doing.

It’s a good thing then that DeSantis didn’t ban the creation of the course.
