In Ron DeSantis’s Florida, a Textbook Publisher Deleted Any Mention of Race in the Story of Rosa Parks
Good morning from the Hive newsroom! Bess Levin has a rage-inducing item on Ron DeSantis’s “dystopian vision” for public schools in Florida, where one textbook publisher submitted a race-blind account of Rosa Parks’s bus boycott in an attempt to get its textbook approved by the state. Because the governor is a “massive bully who threatens retribution against anyone with a different worldview,” Levin writes, “some organizations have felt the need to go to extreme lengths to appease him and his f–ked-up perspective.”
Elsewhere, Levin catches news that Georgia prosecutors have yet another recording of Donald Trump cajoling a state official to help overturn the 2020 presidential election in his favor. Plus, in the right-wing media-verse, Caleb Ecarma observes pundits taking their “woke” narrative around the failure of Silicon Valley Bank to new heights of stupidity. Thanks for reading.

This is the creepy, fact-free world the Florida governor wants us to live in.
