Hey Pricelis! Thanks for your article. I respect how you reject the tribalism that characterizes so much political dialogue. Reading your article, I was horrified to consider a school advocating for slavery, claiming that it was good for the enslaved. However, when I was researching this, I was unable to find anything in the 2022 FL law about slavery benefiting African Americans. Could you provide a source?

Thank you! It's not a specific school but politians in Florida trying to pass the policy. The policy is in the article I wrote above but here are articles talking about the claim and plans: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-florida-standards-teach-black-people-benefited-slavery-taught-usef-rcna95418 and https://www.cbsnews.com/news/floridas-new-education-standards-says-slavery-had-personal-benefits/
