“There’s no silver lining in slavery,” said Scott, who is also seeking the GOP presidential nomination, suggesting that DeSantis should consider clarifying his position. “People have bad days. Sometimes they regret what they say“

Everything what people say comes out of heart. If heart is evil, so will be their words.

Explaining that slaves learned farm skills instead of factory skills isn't a "silver lining"
It partially explains the wealth gap, but people who want to use skin color as the reason for everything good or bad might have a problem saying this.

So the white man knows better than the black man who is a descendant of slaves what is offensive to blacks. Got it.

Apparently so, since most woke professors are white.

Are you as tired as I am of hearing Greyparrot complain about “woke?” Many politicians use the term today as a code word to criticize efforts they don’t like, but they rarely offer to define it. Based on what they are criticizing, it would lead us to think that "woke" to them could be defined as being sensitive to social injustice, especially toward minorities or other groups. It is time to recognize “woke” as pointing to something good, which is awareness of the need to make needed changes in society.
The term was popularized among African Americans referring to those aware of racial prejudice and discrimination expressed in the Ferguson and Black Lives Matter protests. This gives “woke” a natural meaning of awareness of injustice. Since injustice is widespread, “woke” can be used in many settings. It is not necessary to accept the negative meaning of “woke” that many who oppose any change in the status quo or promote a right-wing agenda would give it.

As long as people complain so much about racism in education, it implies that there is racism in education.
That being said, I am not sure if teaching kids that slavery had certain benefits is good in any way.
Some truth is better left untold to kids, who might misunderstand it.

Kamala just stated her opinion. In my view, a bad opinion. Most of the woke disagrees with her.
Apparently so, since most woke professors are white.
Yet here you have Tim Scott telling you it’s offensive. But you will not be swayed.
This is a cool article exposing the woke agenda.
The NY Post. The tabloid paper written for idiots. So cool.
But you will not be swayed.
Swayed from what? Kamala was just fine with the curriculum before the election cycle. She is just as black as Tim Scott. I trust her.

Woke is a way to say “not racist” So anti-woke is the rallying cry for white grievance.
How dare America become a place of prosperity for all Americans. The goal should be once all white men are middle class we can start thinking about people of color

“woke” is postmodernist Marxism. If you are tired of postmodernist Marxism, then you are probably in the majority opinion.

That’s a lie. This Florida curriculum was obviously changed after the election. And you being snarky and disingenuous is not going to cover up your lies.

Bullshit. Only you would compare equal rights with socialism
This is the one Kamala praised earlier.
I can’t imagine you know anything about an AP course.

Kamala, oh Kamala, what's with the switch?
You're all over the place, it's making us twitch
One day you say this, the next you say that
We need some consistency, it's where it's at
Kamala, Kamala, on the campaign trail
Your message is muddled, it's starting to pale
We need a leader, who stands firm and true
Kamala, oh Kamala, what should we do?
You flipped on healthcare, your record's spotty
One minute you're for it, the next you're notty
You used to be a cop, now you're on the side
It's hard to keep track, with this bumpy ride
Kamala, Kamala, on the campaign trail
Your message is muddled, it's starting to pale
We need a leader, who stands firm and true
Kamala, oh Kamala, what should we do?
We're all searching for someone who's steady
Who can guide us through this mess that's heady
We want a candidate who's got a plan
Not someone who flips like a frying pan
Kamala, Kamala, on the campaign trail
Your message is muddled, it's starting to pale
We need a leader, who stands firm and true
Kamala, oh Kamala, what should we do?
Kamala, oh Kamala, we need some assurance
That you're the right pick, for this new occurrence
We want someone who's got it all together
Not someone who vacillates like a feather.
