Another one of the students, high school sophomore Elijah Edwards, said that"Gov. DeSantis decided to deny the potentially life-changing class and effectively censor the freedom of our education and shield us from the truths of our ancestors."

Also present at the press conference were Florida House Minority Leader Fentrice Driskell , Florida Legislative Black Caucus Chairwoman Dianne Hart , state Sen. Shevrin Jones , American Federation of Teachers secretary-treasurer Fedrick Ingram, and National Black Justice Coalition executive director David Johns.
