Very good idea...
He should demand they get to read the Constitution, and the
Federalist Papers also.
Outstanding!
Bravo, Gov. DeSantis! The liars who pimp the “glories” of communism have to be shown for what they are.
Every other Republican governor pales in comparison.
They should add at least another 45 minutes for “victims of Fascism” and another for “victims of Globalism”. The name of the course could be “Murderous Utopians 101”, or the like.
Orwell’s 1984 could be required reading for 7th graders too...
Their heroes are monsters
DeSantis is just about the only Republican getting stuff done. Expect the RINOs like Romney and Mitch to try to kneecap him.
Good. That should be nation wide.
They should also teach how they come into power by promising to make things “fair” by taking from the successful (equity) as opposed to having the same rules for everyone (equality).
AOC, Bernie and some other misguided ‘rats should be required to take it.
Orwell's "1984" should also be required reading, side by side with learning about the U.S. Constitution.
Went through the public school system here in Fla back in the 70s.
Back then we’re were required to take a class in high school called “Americanism v/Communism.
Sounds like this is something similar.
Interesting. Same day a Jewish group banned DeSanti from speaking in NYC.
Dear Florida,
Could the rest of the country borrow your governor for eight years? We promise to return him when we are through.
Thanks in advance.
Engraved-on-His-hands
Gulag Archipelago ought to be required reading in high school.
That might give some of the skulls full of mush a glimpse of what communism actually is.
Amercianism vs. Communism was a class required to graduate Florida schools back in the 1970s. What’s old is new again.
The post is phrasing this in a strange way..
They are trying to start a fight again.
The law isn’t about teaching kids things. Governor DeSantis knows full well that his struggle has been AGAINST schools teaching this that the parents never signed on about.
They are trying to set up an environment where leftists can get angry because they believe the governor is now teaching subjects parents might not want.
I sense trickery afoot.
The biggest potential pitfall here are the teachers and the teachers union, who will do everything they can to undermine it.
A possible solution would be to have the anti-communist instruction produced by contract, by one or more outside, anti-communist organization, of which there are many.
If they really wanted to spice it up, choose an annual theme, starting with “people persecuted by communists”, which could give them a hundred or more different blocks of instruction. These would be inexpensive to produce, as the communists have murdered, starved, tortured, enslaved and persecuted so many people, in so many nations, and their victims rarely have a chance to speak about it.
