Fact Check: Karine Jean-Pierre Falsely Claims DeSantis Limits the Teaching of Black HistoryJoel B. Pollak 23 May 2023
CLAIM: Florida has “limited the teaching of black history,” among other “discriminatory” policies.
VERDICT: FALSE. Florida has banned Critical Race Theory, which is not “black history” but a radical ideology.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre made several false claims Tuesday about Florida’s education policy, and other policies. Most of these have been fact-checked before by Breitbart News; they are talking points that have been repeated by left-wing media and the White House to damage Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who — whether he wins the 2024 Republican presidential nomination or not — has emerged as a leader.
On Tuesday, White House correspondent April D. Ryan, known for a history of racially-focused coverage, asked Jean-Pierre to comment on the NAACP’s “travel advisory” against Florida (which Ryan clearly endorses).
