Arkansas Bars Graduation Credit for AP African American Studies Despite Pushback

Arkansas decided AP African American Studies will not count for graduation credit, citing state laws on teaching race.
The decision came right before classes began, causing confusion and drawing criticism.
School districts, lawmakers, and the College Board have pushed back against the state's position.
The course covers a range of disciplines relating to the African American experience.
It's uncertain if the course will be offered going forward as the debate continues.
