Republican statehouses are banning AP African American Studies and forcing schools to adopt whitewashed history textbooks. They are trying to control what students learn—and what they are forbidden from knowing.
They know that knowledge is power. That’s why they are so desperate to control the past—to control who the heroes and villains are, and to erase the stories that challenge their authority.
The truth isn’t fragile, but it must be defended. We will not let them erase our history or silence the voices that define us.
