.RepMaxwellFrost led a letter against 'bigoted teaching standards in Florida that want kids to learn that Black people received 'benefits' from being enslaved.'
Four Black Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday joined the growingopposing"racist tropes" in Florida's new K-12 history curriculum, which includes teaching middle school students"the resurrection of one of the greatest lies America has ever told itself, that slavery benefited the enslaved."
The first-of-its-kind standards approved Wednesday by the Florida board"are not the truth of American history but riddled with falsehoods that minimize the unique racial terror experienced by Black people in America throughout time," the lawmakers argued. Additionally, for high schoolers, the standards"list massacres of Black people in America as, 'examples of acts of violence perpetrated against and by African Americans,' falsely assigning shared responsibility to Black victims," the lawmakers noted.
