"B b b bu but Black History don't deserve to be taught in rigorous college level classes! I can teach black history to my kids better than a Black Professor with a PhD can!!"

And people wonder why Black Wall Street and countless black inventors are almost forgotten :unimpressed:

It was by design, not simply forgotten. Societies are built atop intellectual property and Black people had those ideas and they were taken from them.

Those inventions were stolen from Blacks as badly as record companies stole royalties..

Black people should be teaching their kids black history. Might keep families together.

Not happening at this point, you might as well push it to the mainstream level.

Generations past already, and information is not being passed around fast enough. You take it to the academic level.

That is our problem. We spend money on Hennessy instead educating ourselves about us.
How do we push it to the mainstream without getting hoed by the process and in the outcome?
We been pushing for mainstream acceptance and the situation seem to get worse.
Time to stop that and come back home and build quietly with each other.
It's too late in the day to keep running with tactics that don't get results.
We're too disorganized and we been too disorganized since '75. Time to clean ourselves up.

@Neo The Resurrected ONE

I'm not sure why you negged me? :jbhmm:

If highschool kids can choose their own ap courses, the Florida government shouldn't have a problem with the subject of AA history.





All people should be taught our history. That should not be an elective course. Black people should learn Black history. White people should learn Black history. Asians, Mexicans and whoever else should learn Black history.

That shouldn't be optional.

What do you want us to do about it OP???:what: file a class action lawsuit!!?




Quit c00ning, brotha. You got no problem with a million threads being made where Biden gets bashed. Somebody rightfully calls out these evil Republicans and you upset that it's getting posted?

Get that c00n spirit out of you!

Outcry Grows After DeSantis Rejects AP African-American Studies Course​

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s Department of Education has rejected a request from the College Board—which runs the SAT and approves advanced placement (AP) courses for high schools across the country— to approve a high school African-American Studies course in Florida on the grounds that it violates state law, according to a copy of the letter provided to The Daily Beast.
Specifically, some on the right are saying the Advanced Placement (AP) program, which is currently undergoing a nationwide pilot, was vetoed because state officials believe it promotes Critical Race Theory, recently banned from schools under the state’s “Stop W.O.K.E.” Act.

The brief rejection letter, dated Jan. 12, reads: “as presented, the content of this course is inexplicably contrary to Florida law and significantly lacks educational value.”

“If the course comes into compliance and incorporates historically accurate content, the Department will reopen the discussion,” said Florida Department of Education spokesperson Cassie Pelelis in an email to The Daily Beast.

The College Board, for its part, said revising the curriculum is par-for-the-course and remained tight-lipped about whether it expected the class to be offered in Florida classrooms.

“The process of piloting and revising course frameworks is a standard part of any new AP course, and frameworks change significantly as a result,” the College Board said in a statement to The Daily Beast. “We look forward to publicly releasing the updated course framework as soon as it is completed and well before this class is widely available in American high schools.”

DeSantis as President will be worse than the guy below (iykyk):
