Extracurricular classes teach ‘the majesty and value of Black history’ from the origins of Africa to Jim Crow policies

Freedom schools, which originally started in Mississippi in 1964, have seen a resurgence as a result of DeSantis’s policies, with schools being spread throughout the nation. Six ASALH branches and affiliated groups have launched schools in Florida, with additional schools in Dallas, Indianapolis and Urbana-Champaign.
The work these schools do is laudable but the correct place for these lessons is in the actual school. Black folk pay taces but their story is being squeezed out of public life.
Its bizzare that in this day and age schools can openly teach racism.
I guess that there is no option for the federal govt to step in and restore sanity ?
The status quo is an affront to civil rights.
