Vice President Kamala Harris rejected Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' offer to debate the state's history curriculum after Harris claimed the state was obfuscating the horrors of slavery.
Speaking in Orlando, Florida, at the 20th Women’s Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church Quadrennial Convention, Harris dismissed the governor's offer to set the record straight on Florida's history education.
"They attempt to legitimize these unnecessary debates with a proposal that most recently came in of a politically motivated roundtable," Harris said in the Tuesday speech.
She continued, "Well, I’m here in Florida, and I will tell you there is no roundtable, no lecture, no invitation we will accept to debate an undeniable fact. There were no redeeming qualities of slavery."
