Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Reasons for the Travel Advisory<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The \u201cCombatting Violence, Disorder and Looting and Law Enforcement Protection Act\u201d criminalizes rioting that causes damage to property or injury to other persons, bars protesters from blocking roadways, makes it a misdemeanor to harass people at a public accommodation like a restaurant, and brings Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) liability against those who organize or fund violent or disorderly public assemblies.<\/li>\n<li>The \u201cStop WOKE Act\u201d bars schools and businesses from teaching students and employees that they are morally superior or inferior to one another or oppressive by virtue of their race, color, sex, or national origin and that they are inherently racist, sexist, or otherwise oppressive or responsible for a past historic wrong by virtue of these attributes.<\/li>\n<li>The \u201cConstitutional Carry Act\u201d allows adults to carry a concealed firearm in public without a permit.<\/li>\n<li>A bill that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/naacp-issues-travel-advisory-against-florida-over-governors-anti-woke-agenda\/\" title=\"NAACP warns against Florida travel due to governor's anti-\"woke\" agenda.\">prohibits public higher education institutions<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-rep-owens-to-introduce-bill-prohibiting-racial-segregation-in-federal-trainings\/\" title=\"EXCLUSIVE: Rep.

The advisory warns people to avoid Florida due to Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis\u2019s legislative campaign to stop \u201cwoke\u201d and racially-charged diversity trainings and to punish riotous behavior. The NAACP listed several bills passed by the Republican supermajority state legislature and implemented by DeSantis as reasons for the advisory. These bills include the \u201cCombatting Violence, Disorder and Looting and Law Enforcement Protection Act,\u201d the \u201cStop WOKE Act,\u201d and the \u201cConstitutional Carry Act\u201d gun bill. The NAACP is also aggrieved by the DeSantis administration\u2019s recent criticism of a pilot Advanced Placement (AP) African American Studies course. Florida Republicans have responded by stating that they are not phased by the advisory and continue to see strong tourism and large numbers of people moving to Florida.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>, be aware of the risks and consider postponing travel,\u201d said the NAACP.<\/p>\n<p>The NAACP issued a &#8220;travel advisory&#8221; urging people to avoid Florida due to Governor Ron DeSantis&#8217;s campaign against diversity training and riotous behavior.
