The headline says, Laida gives its reasons for 22 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: rejecting proposed ap African American studies course. It's not the 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: state of Florida, okay, as government officials who represent the 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: state of Florida.

Oh, basically, they don't 31 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: want blacks to know nothing about blacks. Okay. If they 32 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: are not teaching it, okay. If the hunter is not 33 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: allowed to tell, to tell, then the lions shall not learn. 34 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: All right. You know that old African proverb when tell 35 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: the lion tells the story, the hunter will always be 36 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: the hero.

A one 39 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: page document prepared by the Florida Department of Education says 40 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: that it rejected a proposed advanced placement course because it 41 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: included the study of topics like the Movement for Black Lives, 42 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: Black feminism, and reparation, and it questioned the inclusion of 43 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: certain black authors and historians whose writings touch on critical 44 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: race theory and black communism. Can I give you an 45 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: example of a lesson they don't want taught. The state 46 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: objects to the inclusion of writing by Robbing D. G. Kelly, 47 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: a professor of American history at UCLA, who warns that 48 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: simply establishing safe spaces and renaming campus buildings does nothing 49 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: to overthrow capitalism. She not lying at all. I mean, 50 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: those are steps in the right direction, but changing the 51 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: label on poison the holistic medicine doesn't make it not 52 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: poison now. Florida also said the course framework for the 53 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: study of reparations has no critical perspective or balancing opinion 54 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: in this lesson. I feel like y'all think I'm lying. Okay, 55 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: So let's go to CBS Miami for the report. Police 56 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: Governor rods at his facing widespread outrage of its administrations 57 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: projection of a new course on African American studies in 58 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: the state high schools and the statement of relates to 59 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: CBS News. A spokesperson for the Department of Education and said, 60 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: in part quote and its current form, the College boards 61 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: APay African Americans Studies course lacks educational value and there's 62 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 1: contrary to Florida law. If the course comes into compliance 63 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: and incorporates historically accurate content, the Department will reopen the discussion. 64 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: It says. The Governor was in Fort Myers today and 65 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: made no mention of the decision. The course, which has 66 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: been tested at sixty schools across the country, aims to 67 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: expand the advanced coursework offered by the College Board into 68 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: the study of the African diaspora in the US College Board. 69 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: The organization behind the course responded with this statement. Like 70 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: all new ap courses, ap African American Studies is undergoing 71 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: a rigorous multi year pilot phase, collecting feedback from teachers, students, scholars, 72 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: and policymakers. We look forward to bringing this rich and 73 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: inspiring exploration of African American history and culture to students 74 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: all across the country. What is the white man. I've 75 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: given us historically accurate content about us. Can I tell 76 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: you something. I think the act of blocking African American 77 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: studies is disgusting because it literally is saying in the 78 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: quiet part out loud, which is simply, we don't want 79 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: you negroes knowing nothing about enough. And Okay, it's the 80 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: tale as old as time. Shoot the nose off the spins. 81 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: Don't teach black people anything except how African American history 82 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: began with slavery. As long as we keep them dumb, 83 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: deaf and blind to who they are, they will never 84 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: know what they can be. Oh which the Lion King baby, Okay, 85 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: the whole chapter of my last book, Black Privilege, is 86 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: about how The Lion King was based on the history 87 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: of black people in America and how when we came 88 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: to Western civilization, we didn't know who we was until 89 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: Raffiki wokes himber up and reminded him. And that's what 90 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: this is. Okay. Rafiki may be coming in the form 91 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: of ap African American Studies, and the government of Florida 92 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: is not happening it. Okay, We're gonna keep these negroes 93 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: eating bugs and singing a coonam with Toddle when they 94 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: know Dan, Well, it's a lot to worry about. Now 95 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: here's the thing, back to my original point. Okay, I 96 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: believe the act of blocking African American studies is disgusting, 97 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: but we can't depend on white institutions to educate us 98 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: about us. Okay, teaching us about us has to be 99 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: on us, all right. That should be learned in the 100 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: home because the reality is you're not gonna hear about 101 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: Malcolm X, Nat Turner, then Mark Bessie, James Ballwin in 102 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: no public schools. Okay, they're gonna give you some MLK 103 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: junior with the side of Rosa Parks and that staff. 104 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Now Ron just and spoke to why he is against 105 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: the African American ape studies. Let's go to ABC ten 106 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: twittery port Plice Day. Governor Runda Santis is speaking at 107 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: a press conference today. He addressed the recent rejection of 108 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: an African American studies course at Florida high schools. This 109 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: course on black history. What are what's one of the 110 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: lessons about queer theory? Now, who would say that an 111 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: important part of black history is queer theory? That is 112 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: somebody pushing an agenda on our kids, and so when 113 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: you look to see they have stuff about intersectionality, abolishing prisons, 114 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: that's a political agenda. And so we're on that's the 115 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: wrong side of the line for Florida's standards. We believe 116 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: in teaching kids facts and how to think, but we 117 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: don't believe they should have an agenda imposed on them. 118 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: The governor goes on to say that he and the 119 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: administration and we're outraged earlier this month after banning that 120 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 1: ap course, arguing that it violates state law and quote 121 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: lacks educational value. Now I can agree with Ron de 122 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: santists shouldn't be any political agenda involved in black history. 123 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: And I asked someone who is way smarter than me, 124 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: what is queer theory, and they said intersexuality. You know, 125 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: think studying roles James Baldwin being you know, gay, you 126 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: know how that played a role in his life. Totally 127 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: understand that queer theory makes perfect sense. That I love 128 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: James Baldwin, you know, the panel conversations between him, Bayard Rustin, 129 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: and Malcolm X are incredibly insightful. But I don't feel 130 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: as if they focused on identity politics the way this 131 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: generation does. They were all black first, and mind your 132 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: own business about who they sleeping with. Second. But that's 133 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: the type of stuff you could learn by teaching the class, okay. 134 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: And you can't really teach the last twenty years of 135 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: black history, you know, without BLM, which was founded by 136 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: members of the queer community. So I think the difference 137 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: between now and then is that Bayard Rustin, James Baldwin, 138 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: they were members of the lgbt TQ community, but it 139 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: wasn't mentioned, but now it would be. So what do 140 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: we have here, ladies and gentlemen, a classic case of 141 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: the white man white manning. Okay, this is what's been 142 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: happening since we got here, all right, always trying to 143 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: erase our history. So what's the answer. Yeah, we can 144 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: and should raise hell about this African American studies class 145 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: being blocked. But don't just focus on what the white 146 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: man isn't allowing us to teaching the schools. Focus on 147 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: what we are teaching our babies at home. Can we 148 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: please let Chelsea handle give Ron to Stantis in the 149 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: Florida Department of Education the biggest he had Hee haw 150 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: hee haw.

Right now. We were saying that I 159 00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: love you. It's more personal, more intimate, more intimates, more casual, 160 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: and people are saying people aren't putting as much thought 161 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: as they used to when they say love you. It's 162 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: just like saying goodbye or hello, or love you, love you, 163 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: love you. That's that's what I love you is very different, 164 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: and we're gonna talk about that when we come back 165 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: with the context of I love you, because I tell 166 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: I tell friends I love you. Who? What do you 167 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: mean who? My friends? I don't love you? Don't look 168 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: so hurt about it.
