Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., called Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis 'thirsty' after he invited Vice President Kamala Harris to discuss his changes to African-American history standards.
DeSantis spoke with Fox News Digital and other news organizations after a stop at a restaurant in Concord, New Hampshire on August 1, 2023.for inviting Vice President Kamala Harris to discuss the state's newly updated standards for teaching African-American history.
The controversy around Florida's new African American history curriculum caused a firestorm after critics highlighted a specific line from the new standards and suggested it was teaching that slaves"benefited" from slavery. DeSantis' letter responded to Harris' criticism and claimed how the state has made significant moves in reforming education by eliminating diversity, equity, and inclusion practices, passing legislation that fosters school choice, and revamping curriculum standards to focus on"basic reading, writing, arithmetic, science, civics, and history."
