When one is dealing with a very ignorant bigot of low moral character such as Ron DestupidBigot, no changes will satisfy this defective individual who was groomed to be a God-mocking, American-hating bigot.
What are the specific objections to the course as written? That is the key question.

I have a forum page question. Why has the Tweet section taken over half of my YES page? And how do I get get it over to the right side where it belongs?

It is quite annoying.

Is it happening on your page, too? I thought I must have inadvertently hit a button or something, but I see no arrow or way to shrink the Tweet section.

Another GOP governor who hates democracy: Ron DeSantis said Republicans should exploit "corrupt as hell" voting opportunities until they can be banned. "I don't think you should have mass mail balloting. And early voting, even though we did very well, I kind of like election day."

Backlash grows against DeSantis decision to block AP African American studies classFlorida Gov. Ron DeSantis is facing mounting backlash regarding his administration’s decision to prohibit an Advanced Placement high school course on African American studies, with Black leaders rallying in the capital, a prominent civil rights lawyer threatening to sue and state lawmakers urging him to reverse the decision.
Attorney Ben Crump accused DeSantis of violating the federal and state constitutions Wednesday by refusing to permit the course. His legal team noted that a federal judge found a 2010 law in Arizona that banned a Mexican American studies program from Tucson schools unconstitutional and officials “motivated by racial animus.”
The state Department of Education contends that the class is “inexplicably contrary to Florida law.” A new education law championed by DeSantis requires lessons on race be taught in “an objective matter” and “not used to indoctrinate or persuade students to a particular point of view.” Some education advocates and teachers say the law is so broadly framed that it is having a chilling effect on the teaching of Black history.
“If he does not negotiate with the College Board to allow AP African American Studies to be taught in classrooms across the state of Florida, these three young people will be the lead plaintiffs in a historic lawsuit,” Crump said before he introduced the students.
