Misdirection Play(s), Florida Man Dept. 0
The Orlando Sentinel’s Scott Maxwell takes a look at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s practice of building windmills just so he can tilt at them, with a focus on DeSantis’s latest shibboleth, Critical Race Theory. Here’s a bit; much more at the ink.
The declaration scored the governor the headlines he craved. (Washington Times: “Ron DeSantis vows action on critical race theory that teaches children to ‘hate their country’“)
Except for two key points:
1) That’s not what Critical Race Theory actually does.
2) No local school districts actually teach this theory as part of their curriculums.
