Florida’s new standards for teaching African-American studies found a surprising defender on CNN last week amid an onslaught of criticism from pundits and the mainstream media.
CNN political commentator Scott Jennings pushed back against Kamala Harris’s claim that, “Just yesterday in the state of Florida, they decided middle school students will be taught that enslaved people benefited from slavery.”
“They insult us in an attempt to gaslight us, and we will not stand for it,” Harris added.
“What is amazing to me [is] that how little Kamala Harris apparently has to do that she can read something on Twitter one day and be on the airplane the next to make something literally out of nothing,” Jennings said. “This is a completely made-up deal. I looked at the standards, I even looked at an analysis of the standards, in every instance where the word slavery or slave was used, I even read the statement of the African-American scholars that wrote the standards — not Ron DeSantis, but the scholars.”
