Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced on March 17 that his administration will seek to prohibit the teaching of “unsanctioned narratives like critical race theory” in the state’s schools.

The Republican governor told reporters during a press briefing that he was looking to reform state’s school curricula to “expressly exclude ... critical race theory” because it “teaches kids to hate their country.”
