Happened about six months ago.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) responded on Wednesday to Elon Musk’s tweet earlier in the day saying he was leaning toward supporting DeSantis for president in 2024.
“I’m focused on 2022,” DeSantis, who is rumored to be considering a bid for the White House, told reporters.
“But with Elon Musk, what I would say is, I welcome support from African Americans, what can I say?” he continued. >

TIL Musk is from Pretoria, South Africa. >

If this makes it to the Supreme Court, get ready for an unhinged majority opinion written by Clarence Thomas >

How would it end up in the SC? Declaring Florida schools have to teach The College Board's classes would not only destroy a state's right to decide its own educational curriculums, but would put an insane amount of power in The College Board's hands. Every state legally has to teach their classes? And what about the AP classes that schools don't teach? Every school needs to offer every AP class, since not doing so is harming the student? >

College Board does not have a right to force every state to teach their classes and no one is arguing that they do. But to deny certain AP classes on a racially discriminatory basis WOULD be a legitimate legal challenge >

Exactly, it is like right to work states, you can fire someone for no reason, but you can’t do it for a reason that is discriminatory against a protected class. >

It's fucked black history has to have dedicated classes and only has a month to talk about mlk and Harriet tubman and to kill a mockingbird. It's fucked because the sheer barbarity of what happened to a continent and what we did to other human beings and how we subjugated them is reduced to a trial in the south, a peaceful protestor, and the underground railroad. 
It's nothing. We'll talk about world War 2 and Anne fucking frank until we're blue in the face (and still not really go into detail as to why the barbarities were done and how Hitler and his party came to power) but black people just get to be confused as they learn about the Civil War for the umpteenth time and how heroic Lincoln was. Never mind the boats, the colonial rape of Africa, subhuman treatment for generations and the lasting impact on today's black community all of that left behind. 
Colleges typically do better with telling of historical events but you have to go looking for it. High schools? Haw. >

Ironically completely forgetting the indigenous people of two continents, whose genocide was largely successful and directly inspired the super evil ultimate bad guy Nazi Germans..
