The governor fought with the Republican member of Congress over state’s Black History standards.
during a campaign stop in Iowa amid an escalating conflict over the state’s newly revised Black History standards.
DeSantis’ comments were in line with members of his administration, his education commissioner as well as his presidential campaign apparatus who have criticized Donalds over the past two days. Those in DeSantis’ orbit — including members of his campaign team — responded by linking Donalds to Harris. The exchange over the standards is yet another flash point in an increasingly bitter proxy war of words between the Trump and DeSantis factions.— which Florida education officials adopted last week — another day. At first, DeSantis distanced himself from the dust-up, saying during a campaign stop last Friday in Utah that he “wasn’t involved in it.”
Jeremy Redfern, a spokesperson for DeSantis, pointed out the AP class standards included the language: “In addition to agricultural work, enslaved people learned specialized trades and worked as painters, carpenters, tailors, musicians, and healers in the North and South. Once free, American Americans used these skills to provide for themselves and others.”
