Floridas state education department rejected two new Holocaust-focused textbooks for classroom use, while forcing at least one other textbook to alter a passage about the Hebrew Bible in order to meet state approval.

The books were rejected as part of a broader review of new K-12 social studies material. According to documents provided by the state, the education department did not approve any new texts on the Holocaust this year.
Reached by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, a spokesperson at the departments press office was unable to confirm whether there are older Holocaust textbooks already in use that can still be taught in the state.

Clamp down on 'woke indoctrination'

Under Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, the state has made an effort to clamp down on what he calls woke indoctrination, mostly regarding race and gender. The textbooks rejection is the latest example of how that drive is affecting Jewish topics as well.
One of this years rejected Holocaust textbooks was called Modern Genocides, and the other was an online learning course titled History of the Holocaust. Both were intended for high school students.
