A red state sparked backlash after announcing that it will offer an alternative version of advanced history classes meant to combat the "woke." Historian Kevin Kruse warned on Bluesky that Sunshine State students could have "to suffer through the Florida Man version" of Advanced Placement U.S. History, and called out a curriculum that frames Florida as always having been Christian, anti-slavery and on the right side of history. Commentators like Kruse pointed out that the curriculum will describe slavery as a "necessary evil," frame Plessy v Ferguson as a result of "the failure of Reconstruction" after the Civil War, and credit federal law that counted slaves as three-fifths of a person for "decreased slave power representation."
