The White House on Monday lashed out at Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) over education policy.
President Joe Biden will establish a national monument dedicated to the memory of Emmett Till and his mother on Tuesday. In announcing the move, press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre took the opportunity to criticize school history standards in Florida."Let's not forget what we have seen these past several months as we witness extreme officials in Florida and across the country lie about American history," she said.
Vice President Kamala Harris made similar remarks late last week during a speech in Florida, saying,"They want to replace history with lies, middle school students in Florida to be told that enslaved people benefited from slavery." The Florida Board of Education revised the state's black history curriculum last week, with critics saying the new standards whitewash U.S. history. Chief among the criticisms is that standards require middle schools to teach students that slaves benefited from skills they learned."Democrats like Kamala Harris have to lie about Florida's educational standards to cover for their agenda of indoctrinating students and pushing sexual topics onto children," he wrote.
