Long before Governor Ron DeSantis declared a new war on wokeness, Florida lawmakers in the 1950s and 60s tried going after the NAACP, suspected communists and gay people in Florida schools and universities. The lawmakers upended life for countless numbers of their fellow Floridians before being upended themselves by their own zeal for the cause. Now that DeSantis is bringing this playbook to a presidential campaign, Rachel Maddow and Isaac-Davy Aronson ask what we can learn from the last time Florida went down this path. Featuring guests:Stacy Braukman, author of Communists and Perverts Under the Palms: The Johns Committee in Florida, 1956-1965Shevrin Jones, Florida State SenatorRobert Buccellatto, historian and co-host of the Florida History Podcast

Senator Shevrin Jones is one of my favorite legislators. He serves the Miami Dade district in Florida and has been a key supporter of the AAPI history bill that recently passed in Florida. The post 337. Senator Shevrin Jones on operating outside of the box first appeared on Sifu Mimi Chan.

This week, Ron DeSantis signed into law a bill that would exempt him from Florida's ‘resign-to-run' law, so he won't have to give up his office in order to run for president. He also continued his attack on teachers, signing into law a ban on the state's public colleges and universities from spending money on diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Jonathan Freedland speaks to Democratic state senator Shevrin Jones, the first LGBTQ+ black person to serve in the Florida legislature about the likelihood of a DeSantis run in 2024. Plus, teacher Don Falls explains why he's suing the governor over the Stop-Woke Act

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the long-awaited but unsurprising news that Joe Biden will seek a second term as the 46th president of the United States. Meanwhile, Donald Trump faces day one as the defendant in E. Jean Carroll's civil lawsuit accusing him of rape. Our legal expert brings you her analysis. Also in this episode, we discuss the fallout from Monday's media Red Wedding. Many in the right-wing world are raging at Fox for firing Tucker Carlson, as the reasons behind Don Lemon's departure from CNN sparks speculation. Florida St. Sen.

More than 400 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced in U.S. state legislatures this year, and more than twenty have been signed into law. That's greater than the last five years–combined. Some of these pieces of legislation seek to outlaw access to gender-affirming healthcare for transgender youth. Others would make it easier to ban books from school libraries. Bloomberg reporter Ella Ceron joins this episode to talk about the momentum behind this push and which states are pressing ahead with these bills. We also hear from Democratic state senator Shevrin Jones of Florida—where ten anti-LGBTQ bills are on the table—about the political battle in his state.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with how those who cheered on the January 6th attack on the Capitol are now apparently exporting that brand of anti-democratic violence to Brazil. Plus, we watch the House floor as Republicans try to get organized, and analyze what Kevin McCarthy's struggles mean for our democracy. Also in this episode, Florida St. Sen. Shevrin Jones join us on Ron DeSantis' anti-critical race theory policies, and how they are impacting higher education and educators in that state. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Nicolle Wallace discusses Rudy Giuliani's cancelled interview with the Jan. 6th panel. Plus, Sen. Graham fawns over Trump in new audio, Congress' hopes to codify abortion rights, Ukrainians' fight for their freedom, Esper alleges Trump suggested launching missiles into Mexico, state lawmakers push back against extremism, and concerns about digital privacy amid anti-abortion legislation. Joined by: Jackie Alemany, Charlie Sykes, Harry Litman, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Rev. Al Sharpton, Amb. William Taylor, Gen. Barry McCaffrey, John Brennan, Shevrin Jones, Mallory McMorrow, and Tatum Hunter

State Sen. Shevrin Jones joins us to talk about historically black colleges and the special session. Wildlife Thursday returns — we're talking manatees. And Jazz singer Cecile McLorin Salvant talks to us about growing up in South Miami and that influence on her music.

A panel conversation responding to the ongoing attacks on teaching accurate history, with Shevrin Jones, Laura Briggs, Raphael Rogers, and Jennifer Rich, moderated by Barbara Krauthamer. For not the first time in U.S. history, the content of public school curricula is being challenged across the country. Since January 2021, 41 states have introduced bills or taken other steps that would restrict the teaching or discussion of “divisive concepts,” such as racism, sexism, critical race theory, and the 1619 Project. A Tennessee school board recently banned teaching the Pulitzer Prize-winning Holocaust novel Maus. And at least 16 states are considering "don't say gay" laws, which restrict discussions of sexual orientation or gender identity. This panel of scholars, political leaders, and teachers addresses the ongoing national assault against teaching accurate and evidence-based history at the K-12 level, and increasingly, at the community college and university levels. Panelists consider the history of public school educational disputes around race, sex and sexuality and the impact these educational gag orders have, not just on the teaching of history, but most importantly on our democratic system of government and the meaning of equality in the United States. Panelists will also consider ways to push back against these challenges. A public Q&A follows. This event was co-presented by the UMass Amherst Department of History and the Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab at Florida International University. It is co-sponsored by the following UMass Amherst entities: Anthropology Department Racial Justice Collective, Civic Engagement and Service-Learning, Center of Racial Justice and Youth-Engaged Research, College of Humanities and Fine Arts, College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Linguistics Department, Public History Program, and the W.E.B. Du Bois Department of Afro-American Studies.

Former President Trump's phone records from Jan. 6th show a nearly 8-hour gap. The controversy is emerging  as his son-in-law Jared Kushner is expected to virtually testify before the 1/6 committee later this week. Meantime, Russia says it is pulling back from Kyiv amid peace talks with Ukraine. And this week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the contentious Parental Rights in Education bill which prohibits instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade. Ashley Parker, Luke Broadwater, Joyce Vance, Ben Rhodes, Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges, Will Hurd, Mary Ellen Klas and Shevrin Jones join.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks about "Star Wars" star Mark Hamill having a Twitter meltdown over Florida's new bill. Democrats have renamed the “Parental Rights in Education” bill the “Don't Say Gay” bill to outright lie and mislead Americans into thinking that the bill is something it isn't. Hamill as well as Democrats like Gary Farmer and Shevrin Jones of the Trevor Project don't seem to have actually read the bill, which forbids the instruction of sex education and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade. Dave also does a special “ask me anything” question-and-answer session on a wide-ranging host of topics, answering questions from the Rubin Report Locals community. Learn more about your ad choices.

"My views can shift, but I am not shifting my ideas because you want to see my views shift. I want to say what I believe in so that I can make a change and that change that I am making is the change that I want to see happen." -Jackie and Hannah In this post-election episode, we unwrap our views on what has happened over the past couple days. We wanted to specifically address the media's role in the election and the vote counting since Tuesday night. We talk about what a Biden win will mean for the future of this country and what a Trump win will mean for the future of this country because it is incredibly important to see multiple perspectives. Last but not least, we wanted to acknowledge all of the LGBTQ+ politicians including Sarah McBride, Adrian Tam, Mauree Turner, Shevrin Jones, Michele Rayner, Mondaire Jones, Kim Jackson, and Taylor Small that have won their races!

"Even after Nov. 3rd, we have to make sure that civic engagement is at the top of our list" - Shev JonesWelcome to Local Selection!Follow us!Instagram: @LocalSelectionPodcastTwitter: @LocalSelectionShevrin Jones, candidate for Florida state senate in district 35Twitter: @ShevrinJonesInstagram: @shevrinjones(editor's note: Shev was a candidate for Florida State Senator at the time of this interview and has since been ELECTED!!!)Why should I care about local representation? Don't we have bigger fish to fry?The media focuses its attention - and therefore our attention - on a few national level offices like President and some Senate offices.BUT!Life happens at the local level! And the decisions made at the city, county, and state level have an ENORMOUS impact on our actual lives. It's not just tax codes and jaywalking ordinances (not that those aren't exciting).Housing discrimination gets encoded in city council meetings, and white supremacy is enforced by municipal police departments or county sheriffs.By the same token, those laws, those rules, and those budgets can be unwritten and renegotiated in those same offices.And the people who run for these offices are accessible! They live in your town, they get coffee from your favorite coffee spot. Sometimes they even check their own email!And there is no shortage of awesome, inspiring people who are stepping up to run and occupy these offices, and to use their power to tear down oppressive structures and help make their communities more just, more equitable, and more compassionate.We will never achieve justice at the national level until we can practice it at the local level.We will never achieve equity at the national level until we can practice it at the local level.What we have to work on is our imagination. We need to practice imagining what that society might look like if we practiced our values instead of believing them to be out of reach.And we need role models of inspiration to activate our imaginations.This podcast is on a quest to introduce you to these role models. They exist, right now, all over the country. They are regular people, but they are willing to exercise their imaginations and then do the work to make it real. Before Shev joins the episode I spend a little time on a brief history of Florida's state level politics. State level politics are local - until they are national.Florida's state level politics are everybody's issue.Enter Shev Jones.Shev talks about what it means to be the first openly gay African-American member of the Florida state legislature - and what it doesn't mean.He talks about what it is to be that person - and walk into local meetings of Florida Republicans.
