The education nonprofit offered an apology for not pushing back sooner.
The College Board has finally hit back at Florida’s attempts to paint an AP African American Studies class as an indoctrination effort that “lacks educational value.” The education nonprofit slammed the DeSantis administration’s “slander” of the class and organization in a statement Saturday, offering an apology for not pushing back sooner and poking holes in Florida officials’ attempts to “engineer a political win.
DeSantis’ incessant complaints about the “woke” class, the College Board also wants to set the record straight that the changes had nothing to do with him. And although Florida claimed the College Board removed 19 topics at their behest, the nonprofit says that the state not only never formally asked them to remove those topics, but many remain in the course.
