AP African American Studies is a HUGE step forward considering the whitewashed AP US History & AP World History exams.

Remember when they removed pre-colonialism from AP World? 🙄 This new class brings back the African history that @collegeboard cut. youtube.com/watch?v=L7-14W…

If College Board edits out important terms like “intersectionality” and “Black Queer Studies” from the AP African American Studies course, they will be complicit in the continued erasure and violence against these communities.

The College Board needs to step up. Because it's not worth our time rationalizing the conservative demands, when College Board has the power to say no to racism.

But this is the precise moment that they always cave. I've seen it before.

White supremacists will always try to limit access to info b/c empowered groups of people will upend oppressive systems.

Other conservative governors will almost certainly pull similar stunts. College Board should have expected this reaction & they need to respond in a big way.

🧵 I’m not surprised by DeSantis’ political stunt to reject AP African American Studies in Florida.

What matters now is how College Board responds. They can fight such blatant racism by offering the course online to all, sidestepping local censorship.

I agree with @amandadoamanda of Fiveable. The rejection of AP African American Studies is a racist stunt and College Board should fight it by making the course available online. 5able.me/3HAJUck

AP African American Studies is an incredible opportunity for students to learn our history & it’s shameful – though not surprising – that Gov. DeSantis opposes this. Proud to support Amanda from Fiveable 🌶️ of Fiveable to call on College Board to step up: 5able.me/3XFssZv

Couldn’t agree more with @amandadoamanda of Fiveable. The rejection of AP African American Studies is a stunt by Desantis to solidify power, and College Board should fight it by making this v impt course available online - read her case here: 5able.me/3HAJUck
