God, the people on this thread are stupid.

CRT isn’t even what the Republicans think it is. It’s just being used a buzzword to rally the conservative racists without trying to appear as racist as they are. It’s as clear as the DeSantis coded remark about “monkeying” around.

The word “Intersectionality” simply means that racism, class, sexism, ageism, etc. do not exist alone in a vacuum. Many of society’s worst problems are tied together. That’s just common sense.

And as far as a passing mention of the African-American LGBTQ, what is wrong with that? Those people exist. Why should they left out of history? Not everyone is a middle-aged straight racist white man. Thank God.

When did the history of black people and queer theory become linked together? I can’t keep up with the ever-changing narratives thrown at us.

Mr Ed

You ask, “where is your outrage over the 75% out-of-wedlock birth rate, unfettered crime, irresponsible and absent fathers, rampant illiteracy, and entitlement mattress mentality?”

There is no outrage only at public officials who refuse to go soft on crime, reward such with special programs on top of special programs, more nonprofits funded by taxpayers for more handouts, free rent, free nail and hair weaves, free abortions, and a free ride for absentee fathers. The only thing Curtis is good at in my opinion is manipulating RB Holmes. The Reverend should be giving counsel to his flock and especially to Curtis, who needs it.

““Instructional materials shall include the vital contributions of African Americans to build and strengthen American society and celebrate the inspirational stories of African Americans who prospered, even in the most difficult circumstances,””

Like how a VP climbed the Ladder on her Knees?

Marxicrats are very good at deception, and cloaking their true intent with emotional trigger phrases and titles like “African-American Studies”. Governor DeSantis details quite clearly what the concerning and destructive agendas are that are hidden within the course. But as you will note, none of these so-called “leaders” address those. They simply stay on the talking point of… wait for it… race.

I would like to ask the so-called leaders of our communities of color – particularly those in the faith-based arena – where is your outrage over the 75% out-of-wedlock birth rate, unfettered crime, irresponsible and absent fathers, rampant illiteracy, and entitlement mattress mentality?

As always… You will never solve a problem you refuse to acknowledge.

This really isn’t an issue about disparity this is about Curtis attempting to seek publicity publicity and a PR stunt for his next reelection campaign. Curtis should do something about the crime instead.

Governor DeSantis Best Governor in America!

I don’t know what Curtis is so upset about, it’s an “AP” course… so that means Asians won’t get their dose of Black History. No big deal, I’ll bet there aren’t any remedial Asian History courses, so it all evens out.

On this subject the players all know its a waste of time and money to try to make Desantis back down. So that is not whats happening with the “debate”. Political posturing pure and simple.
