Florida considers whether to allow revised AP African American Studies course

A week after the state rejected it, the College Board, the body that oversees Advanced Placement courses for high school students, released the revised, official framework of a proposed African American Studies course Wednesday.

The board changed several areas of the initial framework, including taking away required readings from authors of critical race theory.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration rejected the initial framework from being taught in the state more than a week ago. The Florida Department of Education highlighted specific issues with proposed sections on Black queer studies, reparations, the Black Lives Matter movement and activism, saying the proposed topics amount to indoctrination, not education.
