About an hour ago, "News Nation," reports that "Florida’s slavery curriculum draws investigation from lawmakers."
Democratic lawmakers are seeking to determine if there are grounds to pursue legal action against the state of Florida for new curriculum standards regarding slavery.
Chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Rep. Steven Horsford, D-Nev., said the caucus met with Education Secretary Miguel Cardona and has sent inquiries to the Department of Justice regarding the issue.
Controversy over the new curriculum is centered around new rules regarding teaching Black history in schools. They are part of a law that requires lessons on race to be taught in an “objective” manner. The rule that has garnered the most attention instructs teachers to include information on how slaves learned skills that could be used to their benefit.
