We're live on the #SoFlaRoundup.

First up: The former principal of a high school in Boca Raton couldn’t say the Holocaust was a factual, historical event.

We'd like to hear what you think: What role do schools play in teaching the Holocaust? How have you faced anti-Semitism?

@AMarraPBPost says the mother brought this to regional supts to express her concerns about the principal's comment regarding Holocaust education. The school said it counseled the principal on how he can't say that.

@AMarraPBPost Rep. Mike Caruso in Palm Beach County says Mr. Latson's comments were 'reprehensible." He called for his termination if he refused to resign.

@AMarraPBPost Caller named Michael in Plantation says it's a fact than millions of Jews died. The response Latson sent was a clear violation of ethics and that he should not retain his job.

"The role of schools is education. It is our responsibility to include this in our history lessons," says Dr. Miriam Klein Kassenoff, a Holocaust Studies education specialist for @MDCPS who fled Nazi Europe as child with her family. #SoFlaRoundup

@MDCPS If the principal replied, "I'll get back to you" in the email, this would be a different story, Dr. Klein Kassenoff says

The story of Palm Beach multimillionaire #JeffreyEpstein continues to unfold. He was arrested in NJ last weekend on new sex trafficking charges of sexually abusing girls as young as 14.

Note to listeners: This conversation will discuss sexual abuse & there are graphic details.

We're talking with @MiamiHerald's @EmilyMichot about how she and @jkbjournalist were able to tell #JeffreyEpstein's victims' stories through photos and videos. wlrn.us/1a0iKaC

@MiamiHerald @EmilyMichot @jkbjournalist "You just have to try to make them as comfortable as possible," @EmilyMichot says. Being moms raising teenagers, being young women at one point, that helped too.

@EmilyMichot @jkbjournalist "Looking back, we interviewed most of these women at her homes," @EmilyMichot says. Michelle was the first victim they talked to. Read her story here: wlrn.us/30FcFfJ

@EmilyMichot @jkbjournalist @EmilyMichot: We were really grateful to the former Palm Beach Police chief. He was so key in making sure the #JeffEpstein case went to the FBI. He was trying to get justice for these girls.

@EmilyMichot @jkbjournalist Emily and Julie gave voice to the women who were victimized. You can read their investigative series #PerversionOfJustice here: wlrn.us/2JwNZ3i

Limited access to healthcare in the Florida Keys is one of the reasons people are leaving. As people get older, they’re concerned about not getting the medical care they need close by. wlrn.us/2JpBGFM

And the challenges are even more compounded for pregnant women who are on Medicaid. wlrn.us/2WoFbUW

It's hard to recruit nurses and doctors down here [in the Keys] too, says David Johnson who is a nurse practitioner.

A big thanks to everyone who joined the South Florida Roundup today. See you next week!
