YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Florida Board of Education's approval of new standards for teaching Black history in public schools has faced criticism from education and civil rights advocates who argue that students should learn the "full truth" of American history. This decision comes amidst Florida's ongoing debate over African American history education, with the state recently rejecting a preliminary pilot version of an Advanced Placement African American Studies course for high school students. The new standards follow legislation prohibiting instruction suggesting race-based privilege or oppression and include requirements for middle and high school students to learn about the skills developed by slaves for their personal benefit and the acts of violence perpetrated against and by African Americans during historical events like the Ocoee massacre, the Atlanta race massacre, the Tulsa race massacre, and the Rosewood race massacre. Critics insist that students deserve an accurate portrayal of history, acknowledging the horrors of slavery and Jim Crow as vital aspects of American history.
