    DeSantis banning AP African American Studies is a reminder of that old quote -- White privilege is when your history is the curriculum and every other history is an elective.

    In this case it isn’t even an elective. It is banned.

    Let me guess, more "Victimhood Studies" to teach any melanin-challenged students that they are villains who owe a perpetual debt.

    Since I’m guessing even if your school did have AP or IB you definitely didn’t qualify, here is a link. Educate yourself fool.

    I’d like to see a sample of the curriculum before I judge it, but apparently the reason it’s not allowed is because it violates the law. Maybe the college board should come back with a version that doesn’t violate the law.

    It’s not allowed because it is against the law.

    It’s against the law because it is not allowed.

    Yeah, the Faux Libertarian club here has two founding members.

    They are fine with the government telling others what to do as long as it backs their preconceptions. They just don't want it to be able to tell them what to do.

    Sure I did, but they called them college prep courses back then in my school. Extra levels of math and english, but no victimhood studies. I was deprived.

    So no Van Gogh in art, cuz he killed himself.
    No Hemingway in English, cuz he killed himself.
    No Vietnam War in history, cuz America can't ever be a bully.
    Basically, Klingon school.
    Only tough guys, and battlefield victors.

    Yeah, you get to respond with what amounts to "nuh uh, you're a doody head!" but don't respond in kind, because THAT would be stupid and childish.

    You knew exactly what I was referencing, but instead of just growing a spine and defending the collective guilt and sins of the father style of "education" you favor, you have to float a bunch of strawmen you know have nothing to do with me or my opinions.

    Are you being stabbed in the heart by Gowron?
    Is a Native American family moving into your house?
    No?
    Then quit your piss-baby fucking whining.

    If this class is incorporating the 1619 project then that’s not history, that’s propaganda and indoctrination and has no place in a K-12 classroom.

    There's no question that generations of white supremacy have impacted the wealth and socioeconomic standing of the black community in the US.

    The only question is to what degree.

    Yes, more than one thing can be true, there could be other factors at work. But that definitely IS a factor.

    And the history of the mendacity is absolutely necessary to be understood before it can be successfully addressed.

    K-12?

    You don't think high schoolers can think critically and evaluate it on their own?
    I was reading Stephen King in junior high.
    Ditto "Huckleberry Finn" with all the n-bombs.
    Just admit you want the fucking books burnt, Goebbels.

    No I won’t admit that because I’ve said repeatedly that they should be available in the school library. Pay attention.

    If anyone is Goebbels in this scenario it’s the lefties who want propaganda taught in schools and not real history.
