AP African American Studies Course Receives Positive Feedback and Changes Ahead.
TL;DR Summary
The College Board will revise its Advanced Placement African American studies course after criticism from scholars who accused the board of omitting key concepts and bending to political pressure from Gov. Ron DeSantis. The board's statement appeared to acknowledge that in its quest to offer the course to as many students as possible, it watered down key concepts. The course development committee and experts within the Advanced Placement staff will determine the changes over the next few months.
