This documentary explores the impact of Florida's Senate Bill 266, which defunds diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs in public universities and restricts related discussions in classrooms. The legislation, signed by Governor Ron DeSantis, has sparked debates over academic freedom, student learning experiences, and the broader implications for higher education. Through interviews with students and educators, the film examines how this policy has altered the way critical topics like gender, race, and cultural diversity are taught, raising concerns about the completeness of education in fields like psychology, sociology, and political science.

Students share their personal stories, highlighting the challenges they face in pursuing a well-rounded education under these restrictions. International student Julia discusses how the ban affects her double major in psychology and criminal justice, limiting her exposure to diverse perspectives. Angelina, a pre-law student, explains her decision to avoid Florida’s public law schools due to the diminishing quality of education and opportunities. Faculty members also provide insight into how these changes impact their teaching, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based learning and critical thinking in navigating sensitive topics.

The documentary underscores the importance of open conversations about diversity and equality in education, particularly as students prepare for careers where these issues are unavoidable. By showcasing the real-life experiences of students and educators, the film highlights the broader consequences of legislative actions on education and society. It calls for awareness, dialogue, and advocacy to ensure that education remains a platform for exploring diverse perspectives and fostering inclusivity.
