Description
Members of Florida’s African American History Task Force were at odds over the state’s altered agenda for the group’s most important event of the year.
The virtual Summer Institute is an annual training the AAHTF offers Florida educators. 10 Investigates reported in June that the Summer Institute had been postponed.
During a July task force meeting, we learned the Florida Department of Education changed the program’s agenda, cutting it down from two days to one.
“For the sake of transparency, I think it would behoove us all to know the process that was followed to come up with this draft. And, forgive me, I’ve just never been on a task force before where our task is already done for us. It feels more like a ‘reaction force,’” said AAHTF member Dr. Brenda Walker.
