Staff in a Florida school district removed pictures of Black heroes from a classroom, citing them as "age inappropriate."
Images removed included MLK Jr., Harriett Tubman, George Washington Carver. This is the toxic environment Ron DeSantis has created.

Bought NewMe Accelerator a few years ago from @ABenton. It changed the trajectory of our organization.
Bought @BlackTechWeek from @FeleciaHatcher and @PearsonDerick. A similar outcome is GUARANTEED.
Announcements dropping at 5:30pm, tomorrow, and Tuesday! #BTW22
