The Florida Senate Education Committee approved a bill Tuesday that would effectively codify white fragility into law.
Senate Bill 148, which should really be called the “sad white people bill,” seeks to bar public schools or workplaces from making people feel “discomfort” or "guilt" about their race during lessons or trainings focused on inequality.
I'd laugh about conservatives being such delicate little snowflakes but there is a more sinister motive behind these conservative safe space laws. Conservatives want to eliminate teaching about slavery, Jim Crow laws, poll taxes, and any and all history of minorities being suppressed in this country so their kids can grow up believing it never happened. It would be like Germany codifying that holocaust denial be given equal time in schools.
