Nothing says anti-Blackness like starting Black History month with the College Board bowing to the Governor of white supremacy Ron DeSantis and removing anything of merit including Black feminism, Black queer voices, Black Lives Matter etc from the curriculum. Adding insult to injury--while DeSantis's state recovers from yet another mass shooting the Florida GOP is offering up legislation that would let everyone of legal age conceal and carry without any training all while taking the real threat off the streets--books. On this episode of #democracyish, Waj and Danielle go OFF on American fascism and ask an important question: what is the Biden administration going to do about it?!?
