how to fight back. i am harris faulkner, you are in the faulkner focus the formal travel advisory tells african americans, people of color, and lgbtq individuals to stay away from florida. the governor s office says it s a stunt. and he s in good company. a lot of people agree. this is really stupid. it doesn t make any sense. i don t even know what the naacp is talking about. this is silly, it s done its political. it really is a fear mongering publicity stunt. i find it, they are very much to be in bad taste. with this is really about is the fight over whether or not to include the ap african-american studies program for florida high school students. the naacp president derek johnson cites the recent decision by the governor desantis on schoolwork you heard geraldo rivera talking about it. the naacp president claims it erases black history and says governor desantis has to go. the governor has perfected our status to gain campaign contributions. we are advising afri
