Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration rejects African American AP course

This is a common tactic on the right. They have given up supporting racism directly but instead moved on to protecting institutional racism. That is to say, they claim the problem isn't racism, it's people pointing it out and trying to correct it. Their supposedly equal view is "we shouldn't see race". Of course since we actually do have institutional racism, anyone pointing to race as a factor of inequality or trying to combat it through education is explicitly "seeing race" and can be gone after as such.

It's part of a broader right pattern of, "it's not the crummy stuff that is a problem, it's the people that are pointing it out that are the problem."

More FACTS that racist cowards don’t want known … both female and male.

1.) Mothers’ milk: slavery, wet-nursing, and black and white women in the Antebellum South

“WET-NURSING IS A UNIQUELY GENDERED KIND OF EXPLOITATION, AND under slavery it represented the point at which the exploitation of enslaved women as workers and as reproducers literally intersected.

Feeding another woman’s child with one’s own milk constituted a form of labor, but it was work that could only be undertaken by lactat- ing women who had borne their own children. As a form of exploita- tion specific to slave mothers, enforced wet-nursing constituted a distinct aspect of enslaved women’s commodification.

The evocative image of an enslaved wet nurse, carefully holding a white child to her breast in order to provide sustenance through her own milk, therefore holds much resonance for historians interested in gender, slavery, and relationships between black and white women in the antebellum South.

Wet-nursing bound women together across the racial divide, and white women also sometimes wet-nursed enslaved infants. Yet ultimately, white women used wet-nursing as a tool to manipulate enslaved women’s motherhood for slaveholders’ own ends.”

3.) History of Trauma
THE HISTORY OF BLACK WOMEN & BREASTFEEDING

“the historical trauma of Black women being used as wet nurses during slavery. Black women in slavery were forced to stop nursing their own children to provide breast milk for the children of the slave owner. “On the one hand, wet nursing claimed the benefits of breastfeeding for the offspring of white masters while denying or limiting those health advantages to slave infants. On the other hand, wet-nursing required slave mothers to transfer to white offspring the nurturing and affection they should have been able to allocate to their own children,” writes the historian Wilma A. Dunaway in The African-American Family in Slavery and Emancipation. And since breastfeeding reduces fertility, slave owners forced Black women to stop breastfeeding early so that they could continue breeding, often to the detriment of their infants’ health, Dunaway notes.”
