[Hill] The NAACP issued a formal travel advisory for Florida on Saturday, saying the state has become "hostile to Black Americans" under Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) leadership.
"On a seeming quest to silence African-American voices, the Governor and the State of Florida have shown that African Americans are not welcome in the State of Florida," the travel advisory reads.
"Due to this sustained, blatant, relentless and systemic attack on democracy and civil rights, the NAACP hereby issues a travel advisory to African Americans, and other people of color regarding the hostility towards African Americans in Florida," the group added.
That will help the crime rate
The advisory points to several of DeSantis’s controversial policies, including legislation he signed on Monday to prohibit colleges from spending public funds on diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. |
