CNN conservative political commentator Scott Jennings criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for claiming Florida’s new middle school black history curriculum includes lessons “that enslaved people benefited from slavery.”
On Sunday’s edition of “State of the Union,” CNN anchor Dana Bash played video of Harris making remarks in Jacksonville, Florida, after the state Board of Education voted Wednesday on the new curriculum on black history.
It includes teaching that “slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit” — and requires teaching “acts of violence perpetrated against and by African Americans,” according to Mediaite.
“Just yesterday in the state of Florida, they decided middle school students will be taught that enslaved people benefited from slavery,” Harris said, according to Fox News. “They insult us in an attempt to gaslight us, and we will not stand for it.”
