Florida was part of a group of states that banned the teaching of critical race theory, a framework that claims American institutions are inherently racist and function to maintain racial inequity. Conservatives claim that critical race theory and other teaching techniques can distort the truth. Critical race theory is not being taught in many schools, despite the fact that it is a major culture war point of contention for Republican officials. The Florida Department of Education released four examples of prohibited content in proposed textbooks. The Department of Education made no mention of critical race theory in its reasoning for banning the examples.
It seems that some publishers tried to paint over an old house that was built on the foundation of Common Core, and indoctrating concepts like race essentialism for elementary school students.
The president of the Florida Education Association union said Monday that he wants more transparency from the Department of Education about how it made its decisions on math textbooks.
Conservative news is usually the top link post on Facebook. According to NewsWhip, Shapiro accounted for three of the top 10 posts.
Florida becomes the fifth state to bar schools that teach critical race theory.
