“Enough Is Enough” Governor’s assault on Black History draws national attention to “whitewashing” slavery

     “Enough is enough” says Reverend R. B. Holmes, Jr., Pastor of Bethel Missionary Baptist Church of Tallahassee, Florida and Chairman of the Tallahassee Chapter of the National Action Network. Reverend Holmes convened leaders in the state to take actions against these racist policies. “The Florida Department of Education’s so-called Black history curriculum is a sham, a shame and a disgrace to all Black Americans and authentic historians…”  he said. Reverend Dr. Carl Johnson, President of the Florida General Baptist Convention, Inc. and Pastor of the 93rd Street Baptist Church of Miami, Florida says “We are appalled, upset and extremely disgusted in this Governor’s consistent attack on Black culture, heritage and history”.  Civil Rights Attorney Benjamin Crump says “This irresponsible and disgraceful, so-called Black history curriculum is an insult to our ancestors and all who believe in teaching true history! This curriculum is about ideology and indoctrination!”
