The Rev. Al Sharpton has led a march to Florida's Capitol to protest Gov. Ron DeSantis’ rejection of a high school African American history course.
Sharpton's appearance in Tallahassee signaled an elevation of the national scrutiny that has followed DeSantis during his time as governor and that has increased as he stakes out his position as a firebrand willing to lean into cultural divides.began last month when Florida announced it was rejecting the College Board's course, saying it violated state law and was historically inaccurate.
The spat continued when the board issued a set of statements days apart that heavily criticized the DeSantis administration and apologized for not taking a stronger stance. The board has also said it is still awaiting clarification on exactly how the course violates Florida law. “Florida students are going to have that ability that is not going to be diminished, in fact we’re going to continue to work to expand it," DeSantis said,"but it’s not clear to me that this particular operator is the one that’s going to need to be used in the future.”
