That whole situation in Florida lacks context, and there appears to be needless fearmongering being promoted by some of the far-left progressive types. Newsweek gave that story a needs more context rating, which means we don't have the full story on that matter and thus should remain skeptical. From Newsweek: "The African American Studies AP course was blocked in its current form by DeSantis' administration, but the Florida Department of Education said it would reopen discussions about a revised version that was in compliance with state law." Sounds to me like the Florida Department of Education is certainly open minded on that matter. Here's a link to that source- [newsweek.com]

This was another interesting read, and begs the question that if DeSantis is truly guilty of promoting racism then why are they apologizing for accusing him of such? "Days after a member of Miami-Dade County’s Black Affairs board called Gov. Ron DeSantis “racist,” the leader of that volunteer panel apologized for the comment and said it did not reflect consensus.

“Words matter,” Pierre Rutledge, chair of the Black Affairs Advisory Board, said at the start of a Friday press conference.

“As chair, I must start by saying we want to pull that back,” said Rutledge, an administrator in Miami-Dade’s school system. “There’s nothing wrong with saying ‘We’re sorry.’ That’s not what we intended to say or be depicted by anyone. And that’s not the feeling of this board.” The link to that source, and worth pointing out that the Miami Herald leans to the left. Again, sounds like that whole ordeal was blown out of proportion and not what it seemed to be.-
