Join the Palm Beach Chapter of the ACLU of Florida on Wednesday, September 14 to discuss the First Amendment and attacks on this fundamental right in Florida.
In the past two years, the Florida Department of Education has issued a ban on teaching "critical race theory." Gov. DeSantis also signed into law House Bill 7, which bans Florida educators and students from learning and talking about issues related to race and gender in higher education classrooms; House Bill 1557, the "Don't Say Gay" law, which bans classroom discussions related to sexual orientation and gender identity in schools; and House Bill 233, which allows teachers to be recorded in their classrooms without their knowledge.
Ahead of Constitution Day, join us for a presentation with Professor Dilys Schoorman of the College of Education at Florida Atlantic University, who will discuss the impact these laws have on Floridian's civil rights and liberties and present a strong defense for our First Amendment rights.
We will also provide more information about your voting rights ahead of the general election in November. RSVP if you can make it.
See you there!
