Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed 6 right-wing members to the New College Board of Trustees, paving the way to majority control of the board. Among the appointees is reactionary homophobe and racist Chris Rufo, who is well known for leading the attack on “CRT” and will attack any program at NCF that sheds light on the injustices of the US and the patriarchal, racist, imperial, and capitalist system he upholds. The new boards plans on shuttering any Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion related programs, deeming them unnecessary and instead promoting values like “colorblindness”, ignoring systemic injustices with the intent of excluding minorities from the student body and staff. He also announced plans to redesign the core curriculum and will certainly strip it of its progressive elements.
We're happy to be joined by student activists Sam Sharf and Lex Daly, who have been crucial in organizing students against the new board and their dangerous agenda. The students are planning a protest at the first Board of Trustees meeting on the 31st of January.
Only through organized resistance can the students and staff resist this fascist takeover and coup attempt against their school! Only through organized resistance can we resist the war on public education waged by the right wing here in Florida and across the nation!
