- So PragerU just became a verified educational vendor
in the state of Florida, and as someone with a background
in education and more than a passing interest in PragerU,
I decided to look into the educational materials
that they have available and what I found was,
genuinely, really surprising.
I actually started looking into all of this
for a bigger video that I'm working on
about educational censorship and how we teach history.
So if you don't want to miss that one when it comes out,
then be sure to subscribe to the channel and ring the bell
so that you get notified when it releases.
Anyway, PragerU is now a verified educational vendor
in Florida, which means Florida Public School teachers
are free to use any of PragerU's content
in their classes without fear of repercussions.
Now, lots of outlets have covered this news,
but most of them focus on the political bias
that permeates PragerU's kids content.
But honestly, I think there's a lot more to say
about PragerU's new educational stuff outside the politics.
So, literally the day that I finished editing this video,
like literally the day that it went live for patrons
and members, PragerU announced that their kids content
had also been verified as supplemental educational materials
in Texas, and Jill Simonian made a whole video talking
about the hate press that that earlier announcement
had gotten of people talking about the politics
of PragerU Kids videos and she took real issue with that.
So Jill, if you're watching, this one is for you.
But also, if you wanna see my full thoughts on that video
that she made, then you can check out the recording I did
with my friends over at the Human Restoration Project
on their YouTube channel, and I will have that linked
in the description.
This aside is just to say that anytime I mention Florida
in the video, remember that I'm also now talking
about Texas, anyway, back to the video.
