Wednesday, the Florida Governor DeSantis made a great stride in stopping the woke madness Critical Race Theory from infiltrating the schools and corporations.
He’s pushing legislation called “Stop WOKE Act.”
From the great governor himself:
Florida rejects narratives that teach our children and culture to hate our nation and to hate each other.
In Florida, critical race theory will not be tolerated. CRT is DOA. pic.twitter.com/rQk9qBTSet

Fox News reported more on the Bill:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is introducing legislation Wednesday banning critical race theory in classrooms and in corporate settings, such as employee trainings, through a piece of legislation coined the “Stop WOKE Act.”
“Florida’s civics curriculum will incorporate foundational concepts with the best materials and it will expressly exclude unsanctioned narratives like critical race theory and other unsubstantiated theories,” DeSantis said in March.
“Let me be clear: There is no room in our classrooms for things like critical race theory,” he continued. “Teaching kids to hate their country and to hate each other is not worth one red cent of taxpayer money.”
“Now the progressive activists’ CRT agenda is not only in education, but also in corporate boardrooms and employee trainings at some of America’s most powerful corporations,” the governor’s office explained in a news release. “Workers are subjected to trainings pushing the falsehoods that America is a ‘white supremacist’ country, and that white Americans are ‘raised to be racist’ from early childhood. These divisive narratives and indoctrination programs create a hostile environment in violation of our laws and principles.”
The Stop Wrongs to Our Kids and Employees Act (Stop W.O.K.E. Act) will go “on the offense against both corporate wokeness and critical race theory in our schools,” according to the release.
“Nobody wants this crap. This is an elite driven phenomenon, driven by elites in universities, bureaucrats, and corporate America, and they’re trying to shove it down Americans’ throats. We won’t stand for it in Florida.” @GovRonDeSantis on critical race theory indoctrination

A lot of progressives screeching "CRT isn't taught in schools!"
Okay, if it isn't taught in schools, why do you have a problem with @GovRonDeSantis banning it?

Another blow to the Marxism!
With the Stop Woke Act, Florida Governor Mr. Ron DeSantis almost completely prevents American Youth from being brainwashed with the Critical Race Theory.
Communism and radical left terrorism will be rooted out. Good for all America! ✌✌✌

DeSANTIS: “Today, we are taking a stand against critical race theory in our schools and in the workplace by calling for the enactment of the Stop W.O.K.E. Act… Wokeness is a form of cultural Marxism…”** https://t.co/5r9tMdah8c

This is a BIG win for the republican side as DeSantis is paving the way for more states to come and stand against CRT.
CRT is a waste of time, space, money and energy that does nothing but teach our children “white people are inherently bad.”
It’s political woke garbage we need to fight against with every fiber of our being.
My opinion, it’s Marxism disguised under racial equity education.
We cannot, under any circumstances let this in our schools or workplace.
I support Ron DeSantis completely!
