MIAMI -- Another advocacy group is warning people of color about traveling to Florida – but for different reasons.
The NAACP issued a travel advisory for the state "in direct response to Governor Ron DeSantis' aggressive attempts to erase Black history and to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in Florida schools," the group said in a written statement Saturday.
The announcement came days after LULAC – the League of United Latin American Citizens – issued a travel advisory for Florida after DeSantis signed a new immigration law that will go into effect in July.
Both LULAC and the NAACP say actions under the DeSantis administration are "hostile" to their communities.
"Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals," the NAACP said. "Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color."

Huh. I fail to see the downside in this.
I haven’t been to Florida in years and am planning on going back though I’ve heard some not so wonderful things about downtown St. Petersburg and shots being fired. But one pretty much has to know where to avoid in every downtown.
Let it be so. Let us be a nation of hyphenated-Americans. E Unum Pluribus.
The NAACP is as credible and respectable as the Southern Poverty Law Center.
😉
travel advisories... this is funny.
it must be pretty bad there in florida to warrant this.
Then why does virtually every Democrat politician have a home there?
A couple days ago, I read a quote by a Black female in a news story about the Subway choke hold death who incongruously stated that Republicans are trying to erase Black history, and that Florida is leading the charge.
What the heck was she talking about?
48% of Florida residents are non-white.
I hear Baltimore is nice this time of year as well.
A really easy way is to stay many blocks away from any street or avenue named after Martin Luther King.
Anything short of complete capitulation to BLM, ANTIFA, CRT, DEI, gang violence, Marxism, reparations and virulent anti-white actions constitutes “hostility” to these racist mental midgets. A civil society is wasted on them.
Great idea!
Or even Memphis...
Inciting and stirring the pot. Disgusting.
How is this different from Scott Adams’ advice to Whites? And he got his comic cancelled for it.
Florida could respond with ads: Our beaches are whiter than ever.
Bingo. Let's see this grifter move out of the state. Give him no rest until he lives in Chicago, Oakland, or New York City.
Ironically, Democrats who are busy bringing in all the Latino immigrants are in a sense phasing out the Blacks. Any complaints?
(crickets chirping)
Then the race mongers can rewrite their boycott proposals based in facts...
