Aston Martin Posted August 7, 2023 Posted August 7, 2023 https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/florida-appears-to-reverse-effort-to-bar-ap-psychologys-lgbtq-content/ar-AA1eUDw9 Apparently Florida education leaders reversed course on banning AP Psych, and are now saying the course can be taught "in its entirety" and "without fear of punishment". This includes the parts about gender or sexual orientation. I read that this has less to do with an altruistic change of heart and more to do with the fact that a lawsuit that was threatened. Apparently said lawsuit could've resulted in the striking down of Florida's awful Don't Say Gay law in court. tldr: bad policy gets reversed, but for a shitty reason
Bosque Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 I wouldn’t trust them for a second. They probably didn’t want to deal with all the lawsuits from angry parents. But the course content is still factually illegal in Florida. If you teach Ap Psychology and they don’t like you for any reason, they won’t hesitate to take you down for it
