  • Summary

  • The term "parental rights" has become a most useful tool in the state’s education politics. DeSantis has used the term to describe his efforts to give parents more control over how their child is educated at school. On its face, it’s well-founded desire. Teachers and faculty want involved parents. However, the governor has turned that useful tool into a blunt instrument with which parents — especially white ones in his base — have struck blows against so much of what education is supposed to be about — expanding young, curious minds — both in grades K-12 and at the university level. In this episode you'll hear from Editorial Board members Nancy Ancrum and Amy Driscoll, and audience engagement producer Lauren Costantino. Special thanks for WLRN studios in downtown Miami.
