John,

Last Friday, every Black lawmaker in the Mississippi State Senate walked
out in protest of Republicans passing a bill that will ban schools from
teaching critical race theory.

This bill is designed to whitewash any discussions of Mississippi’s racist
past while fighting any and all efforts to educate children on how racism
still impacts communities of color to this day.

It’s part of a pattern of behavior that's now leading to teachers and
school administrators being disciplined and even fired for teaching
history in the South.

This bill and similar ones introduced in states from Texas to Georgia and
Florida underscore why our Flip the South campaign is so critical. To
fight back and ensure basic history lessons are being taught, we need to
compete for state legislative seats across the South.

walking out to protest Republicans' grotesque attack on teaching the
history of racism then rush a donation to DFA so we can Flip the South and
challenge Republicans too scared to confront racism and its impacts on
today’s society.

Unsurprisingly, the sponsor of the bill, Republican Michael McLendon,
could not even say what critical race theory is, yet somehow he still
believes that no child should be taught it.

That insane display of illogical thinking shows exactly what our campaign
to Flip the South is sorely needed.

DFA is already hard at work across the south, building up the grassroots
resources it’ll take to challenge Republicans too scared to teach the
history of racism and how it still lingers on today.

The truth is, Democrats can win anywhere when we run good candidates,
embrace our diversity, and fight for what’s right.

[ [link removed] ]That’s why we need your support as we build up our campaign to Flip the
South. Will you become a DFA Defender and make a monthly donation of $22
or more right now to help us successfully take on Republicans and Flip the
South?

Flipping the South won't happen without you. Thank you for supporting DFA,
because when we work together, we’re unstoppable.
