Reply to comment by mrhardliner007 in Florida city opens nature preserve after citizens helped save it by Metlman13

Never said they didn't exist elsewhere, just that it's laughable to assume this "pure Florida native" bullshit where they all care about the environment. I'm totally fine with living around assholes, gonna happen anywhere you're right. But I'd prefer my kids go to schools that are comfortable teaching about Black people and actually have books in their libraries. Something tells me that doesn't require living in a Utopia. Just anywhere besides Florida.

Reddit hyperbole at it's finest. They still teach black history here. Just not the "your white classmates are evil oppressors and you should hate them" variety. But hey if that's what you want your kids to deal with.

Yeah, it's pretty clear from your responses that I'm definitely making the right call in getting them educated literally anywhere else. As someone who actually took AP African American history, I assure you nothing like that is part of the curriculum. Convenient you ignored the part about books being taken out of libraries, but I guess that's a bit harder to wave off with casual racism.
