Benefits to slavery: the New Florida Curriculum Standards

Ned Cobb, aka Nate Shaw


Governor DeSantis has  doubled down on this nonsense. One can only wish he would be embarrassed by his Ed Communications Director who is not an historian, nor as a lawyer does he have much regard for evidence.  Ned Cobb was never enslaved.  His life story is told in All God's Dangers. John Henry?  He had a hammer.... ooker T. Washington?  Nine years old and illiterate when he was freed.


 Any attempt to reduce slaves to just victims of oppression fails to recognize their strength, courage and resiliency during a difficult time in American history.” https://t.co/7pR8GBFu2l
