Dear @CollegeBoard — Florida banned new Afr Amer Studies course outright claiming it “lacks educational value.” You worked over a decade creating course. You had scholars hail curriculum for being “rigorously vetted.” How are you not #AllOrNothingAP? 🤨🤔
How do you intro new course @CollegeBoard that’s gone through same rigor as all your other courses *now available in Florida* and yet have state say we don’t want course centering Black American history & culture — but we’ll take European History. How’s that work? #AllOrNothingAP
The *only course* Florida rejected is one that explores the contributions & experiences of African Americans. Japanese / German / French / Chinese / Spanish / Italian Language & Culture are *all permitted* in the state of Florida.
So dearest @CollegeBoard we are all waiting. This story went viral on Thursday. The silence is deafening. Let us hear something pls. How do you allow a state to reject your course teaching about Black Americans & accept *everything else* That’s just unacceptable. #AllOrNothingAP
