Gov. Ron DeSantis imposed restrictions Friday on the way race-related issues are taught in public schools and in private workplaces in Florida. Lessons that might make some people uncomfortable would be banned.
DeSantis said he was acting to protect students from “pernicious ideologies like critical race theory,” promising that “we are not going to use your tax dollars to teach our kids to hate this country or hate each other.”
