After Racist Shooting, DeSantis Pledges $1 Million for Security of Historically Black College

After being booed by mourners at a memorial for a racially motivated attack in Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis has announced a $1 million grant to enhance the security of Edward Waters University, a historically black college. This decision comes after the gunman attempted to enter the college but was denied access. DeSantis also pledged $100,000 to charity for the victims’ families. The governor has faced allegations of racism and limiting black history education. Additionally, he has been criticized for supporting expanded gun access. The shooting is being investigated as a hate crime, with the gunman leaving behind racist manifestos and using a rifle with a Nazi symbol painted on it.
