In the Summer issue of Ms., we look into the origins and consequences of a new Florida law that could decimate degree programs in women’s and gender studies, Africana, ethnic and queer studies, among others.
And lest you think this is just a “Florida problem,” author Aviva Dove-Viebahn explains how the law fits into a radical right-wing strategy that extends nationwide. Lorna Bracewell, an associate professor at Flagler College in St. Augustine, warns that “if these policies are permitted to go into effect … it’s a death knell for public education in the state—and it’s not going to be confined to the state.”
