Dr. William B. Allen Calls Out Kamala Harris' LIES About Florida African American Studies Curriculum

HOST: “So, there’s been — there’s been a little bit of backlash to the standards that were put out. And, you know, like you said, these were done in open session so the public could listen or watch along. What would — what would you say to critics who say these standards have set education back?”

Allen: “Well, I can’t answer critics who were haven’t seen or heard. The only criticism I’ve encountered so far is a single one that was articulated by the vice president and which was an error. As I stated in my response to the vice president, it was categorically false. It was never said that slavery was beneficial to Africans. What was said, and anyone who reads this will see this with clarity, it is the case that Africa’s proved resourceful, resilient and adaptive, and were able to develop skills and attitudes which served to their benefit, both while enslaved and after enslavement.”
