Trump's Leadership Steps On The Little Man

A recent Quinnipiac Poll reveals that two-thirds of Americans feel their education lacked sufficient emphasis on the struggles and achievements of Black Americans. This sentiment has been further complicated by the actions of Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump, who assert that under their governance, such topics will be minimized. DeSantis has challenged Florida educators by prohibiting Black history publications in schools and libraries, a stance echoed by Trump. He has threatened to inspect the African American Museum in Washington, D.C., seeking materials he deems unfavorable. Furthermore, Trump's administration attempted to erase Jackie Robinson’s image—a reflection of his broader disdain for his opponents. During a memorial for Charlie Kirk, Erika Kirk's message of love was overshadowed by Trump’s vitriolic political rhetoric, highlighting his intolerance. His statements about free speech seem hypocritical, as he consistently utilizes vile language. Moving forward, advocates for civil rights must rally to protect the rights of marginalized communities and ensure they are not silenced.
