Ron DeSantis Finds Surprise Ally In Black Florida Democrat Over Recent AP African American Studies Course Fiasco
Bill Proctor, an African American Democrat who holds the position of Leon County Commissioner, has chosen to stand alongside Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the ongoing debate about the governor’s choice to put the kibosh on an extremely woke AP African American Studies course which was slated to be taught in the state schools after its development by College Board was finished.“I think it’s trash,” exclaimed Proctor when speaking about the course. “There is grave concern about the tone and the tenor of leadership’s voice from the highest spaces in our state being hostile to teaching of African American history.”
“Well frankly I’m against the College Board’s curriculum. I think it’s trash. It’s not African American history. It is ideology,” Proctor went on. “I’ve taught African American history, I’ve structured syllabuses for African American history. I am African American history. And talking about ‘queer’ and ‘feminism’ and all of that for the struggle for freedom and equality and justice has not been no tension with queerness and feminist thought at all.”
